If you have an ice maker and a small cooler it’s way quicker to put them in the cooler and cover them with ice and water. You know, if you have a cold beer emergency and don’t want to wait for the freezer to cool it down. 5 minutes is plenty.

add salt and it should cool quicker

[–] [email protected] 15 points 7 months ago

Add lime and you still shouldn't drink that ice water.

Salt + stir, I recall

Not sure if covering beer in a wet paper towel before it goes into the freezer is a legit method or not

Of course would limit both of these due to unnecessary waste

You can also just wrap them in a wet paper towel to get the same effect. Or even better wet paper towel with some ice on top.

You beat me to the punch. It works great! 15-20 mins tops and your beer is ice cold

I've tried all the "quick chill" methods I've heard of, but none of them work as quickly or as well as the icecream maker method. Watered down ice with some table salt. Set your unopened beer into a slurry like that, and in about 20 - 30 minutes, it's surpremely cold. None of the "5 minutes and it's ice cold" methods work as well or as quickly to be honest. At least not in my climate and in my experience.

There's a cheap machine that dip the can in ice cold water and spin it really fast. It cool the can down to <5°C in less than 3 minutes. I think it'll work even better with your salt method.

Edit: changed the time and temp because it works even better than my memory.

It was a cider, but thank you :)

No bullshit.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 7 months ago

Thank you, almost forgot.

[–] Subnet64 12 points 7 months ago

Crap. Now I have a can of beersickle.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 7 months ago

Nah it's cool. I only have tequila in there. It won't freeze.

[–] shalafi 11 points 7 months ago

Just got mine out 5 minutes ago! And the one I left overnight.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Or put it in the fridge a few hours before you want to drink it, and not only five minutes or so.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 7 months ago

But that requires a level of forethought and planning I'm simply not capable of.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

That's assuming that you haven't already burnt through your supply of fridge beers.

[–] PunnyName 10 points 7 months ago

I'm homeless. I ain't got beer or freezers.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Remind me after 10 hours I've chips

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver 8 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Hey bro, remember you have chips.

Pro tip: set a 40 minute timer on your phone as soon as you put the beer in the freezer.

[–] Sam_Bass 3 points 7 months ago

Yeah if you pull it out gently you can open it in the sink

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I don't drink beer and rarely drink alcohol

[–] Psythik 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

What's your drug of choice, then?

You're doing God's work, OP
