better than that gotten with a hole lot of individual refrigerators in houses
Partly because the freezer plant had better insulation, maybe.

Jewell, You might want to take a look at the following website. I am
sure there are better resources, but I can't lay my hands on them right now.
I actually remember "Putting up" ice. When I was 6 or seven years
old my job was to use a stick with a sharp pin in the end to keep the
blocks of i
Ah yes, thanks for clarifying Tom. The melting ice grabs heat energy from
the ice cream. This is one reason why the ice cream container is metal
and the bucket it sits in is wood. The metal conducts heat better than
the wood so more of the energy comes from cooling the ice cream rather
than
Hi Jewel,
for many years, starting in at least the 16thcentury or so, ice
was a pretty signifficant new england export.
It was cut from ponds and the like using huge 2 man saws and
stored in "ice houses" which were at least partially under
ground. They packed it in saw dust as an insulator.
It co
so the obvious, I hope, extension is that in the iceCream maker
the melting salted ice is grabbing its heat energy from the slightly
warmer IceCream in the can.

Jewel,
The few things I have read that talked about ice before the days of
refrigeration mentioned that large blocks of ice were stored in caves or
in ice houses underground where the ambient temperature was in the mid 50
degrees F, about 12 degrees C. Thick layers of saw dust were placed

Jewel
The ice in ice houses was insulated with straw or more likely saw dust.

refrigeration and
icecream makers and the vital part that rock salt played in the process, may
provide the
