This Filipino Ice-Maker Machine turns water into ice in seconds

Listen to article

This un-identified Filipino-owned ice-maker machine turns ice-water into ice is a matter of seconds. Watch this amateur video on how they make ice water into ice by merely dipping it into a bath of cold water.

We’re not particularly sure sure what the set-up is and the chilling machine they use here but the video clearly shows how a seemingly regular ice water turns into solid ice after dipping into the vat and merely flicking the plastic.

tama si engrfrog.. tinuturo yan sa chemistry subject. baka absent lang yung iba nung tinuro ng mga instructors nila yan nung 3rd year high school sila..

water’s freezing point is 0 degrees celcius.. so kapag ung water pinalamig mo up to 1 degrees celcius hindi parin sya magiging yelo… pero kung mag create ka ng disturbance sa molecular particles nya.. like ung ginawala na pagpitik.. magiging active mga water molecules makikiskisan un ang cause kung bkt naging yelo xa in seconds

yeah. This is just supercooled water, a party trick you can do with beer

You want to impress us, prove that the water starts out at room temperature

Uhm.. please don’t underestimate Filipinos..
FYI that florescent bulb that we are using was invented by a Filipino which is much more efficient than incandescent bulbs..

True, but its not solid ice.

This is nothing new: it’s called Supercooling.

Nerds and pranksters everywhere know that water can remain uncrystallized despite being below its freezing point if it is relatively pure (avoiding nucleation sites) and cooled at a certain rate.

Once disturbed, the nucleation process is triggered instantly and voila. Frozen water (it won’t even take minutes, actually).

I doubt that it took only seconds to make the ice. They didn’t show that the water in in the plastic bag is new. They only showed that once flicked the water inside the bag becomes ice. This is the same principle as the iced beer in bars. For water to freeze from room temperature in seconds, the water in the water bath should be extremely low. So low in fact that your hands will shiver in mere seconds of dipping in the water tank. If you look closely also, they used a split type aircon as compressor, No visible insulation that can help maintain the temperature. This is one expensive way to make ice tubig.
