Why do the cubes in the top ice cube tray always come out easily when the ones in the lower tray(s) need a hot-water treatment to remove them?

Do they? If that is the case I had never noticed.

Of course, after they had frozen you could fool them by swapping them over. Then would both come out easily. :thumb:

Actually, no you can't - I've tried it. There is some speculation that it has to do with whether the water freezes from the top down or from the bottom up, but I'm skeptical.  :grin:

Must be quite a few people that study ice for a living.



Gather and Sell it.



Buy it.

That's the first thing I've heard today that made any sense.

 Why do even knowledgeable folks insist on referring to the act of operating a motorcycle as
"driving" ? NO NO NO NO NO . You drive a car or a golf ball , you ride a horse or a motorcycle .

In Germany, you "drive" (fahren) your car, your motorbike and your bicycle. You even "drive" on a roller coaster. One of the few things you actually "ride" is a horse. Oh, and you can "ride" a wave too.

But an "Einfahrt" isn't a Drive-In :-)

I always left my ausfahrting in Australia. Of course, I may have done the odd one in Austria... :undecided:
