If you try to freeze water, juice or other liquids in a closed plastic container without leaving room for expansion, your container will crack or burst. I fill plastic bottles or jugs with liquid, leaving plenty of room at the top for expansion. Once the liquid is frozen, then you can safely tighten the lid and then when you want to take it off use warm water to wash it then take it off.
The reason why it's a bad idea to freeze water in a sealed plastic container is because the container can break. I would say if the water bottle is full and you freeze it then burst open and then it will be an even bigger mess then if you just started with a half full bottle. Which works just as well.
Leave at least a 1/4 of the plastic without water because water expands.
Other notes:
Jugs of ice keep the freezer from having to work as hard to cool the compartment, assuming you don't keep your freezer space full of food. In the event of a power outage the chunks of ice can help prevent the loss of your food for a little longer. It is NOT indefinite, but it does help for brief periods of time. My freezer lasted two days during a summer hurricane.
There is a myth going around that freezing water in a plastic container causes the plastic to release dioxin, and thereby causes Breast cancer. This is not true.
Water is a very unique substance in that it is most dense at 4 degrees Celsius; it actually expands when it's frozen. So while your water won't spill out into your freezer, it will most definitely burst your bottle (container, whatever... your question is super convoluted)
There are two questions, separated by a common language. The first question is "Can you freeze cookies with icing on them?" The answer to this is yes. The second question is "Can you use icing to freeze cookies?" The answer to this is no. ***** You can freeze cookies that have been decorated with royal icing. Place them in an air tight plastic container before freezing. When taking the frozen cookies out of the freezer, don't open the container to prevent condensation inside the container making the cookies soggy. Leave the unopened container until it has reached room temperature before opening.
Yes ink does freeze. If you are concerned about ink freezing during shipping it will not hurt as long as it is in a plastic container, glass may break, plastic will expand a little. Leave the ink out at room temperature and when fully thawed make sure you give it a good shake then the ink is ready to use.
you have to win bingo, go to items and click use on the cd,then then teenagers will leave and you"ll get the bottle of no freeze stuff! :)
Just freeze a water bottle, thaw it out. shake well and look at it in the sunlight at just the proper angle (it's a bit tricky) you will see lots of small bits of plastic swirling around, looks like very small air bubbles but will fall to the bottom of bottle, so it can't be air. I have even tried taking water out of bottle before freezing. Plastic particles every time.
1. Store in a glass or hard plastic bottle. 2. Leave an inch of space in the container. 3. Store away from light. 4. Store in containers that have been washed in hot, soapy water.
depends on how old it is and how it was put. Most likely yes
Mixequal parts of sugar and breadcrumbs together. Use plain breadcrumbs not spicy ones. Cut the top off the bottle and turn it upside down. Sprinkle some of the mixture in the bottle. Leave it out and collect the crickets in the plastic bag in the morning.
Most people want to save money and plastic is cheaper so they buy it and then use it. If your concerned about the enviroment then it´s a good point you got. Plastic can be recycled but only if it´s thick enough if not, then when you recycle it, it burns to ashes. If you buy a plastic bottle and your in the sun alot or leave your bottle in the sun the chemicals of the bottle can melt and when you drink out of it the chemicals go in your body and that can make you get cancer. This also happens if you use the plastic bottle alot.
Yes, of course you can. Place it in an air tight container. Make sure you leave room for the liquid to expand during freezing.
Do you have nails in the bottle, or do you have a container with nails and bottles in it? If the nails are in the bottle, you can cut the top off the bottle and dump them out. If they're in a container, just pick the bottles out by hand. No complex techniques are needed because plastic bottles are big enough to pick up with your hands.
Yes I agree with your husband that there is no reason to remove the inner foil lid as it simply provides an additional seal of protection.
Yes. Make sure that you leave some room in the jug or container for the milk to expand as it freezes. I recommend shaking it thoroughly after defrosting again.
