Best Answer

Dry ice can be bought in local grocery stores. However you can also produce your own dry ice through a portable dry ice maker. Certain portable dry ice makers are capable of producing 1-lb blocks of dry ice within a minute. Portable dry ice makers also don't occupy so much space since they are usually attached to CO2 containers and are not huge floor standing equipments. So allocating space for this equipment isn't a problem.

It is advised to be fully informed on the safety precautions in handling dry ice before making your own at home.

Check the link below, there is an article that discusses the perks of a portable dry ice maker comprehensibly.
