Because of the high concentration of alcohol, 45% at 90 proof, the alcohol acts like an anti-freeze.

If there was a Bottle of moonshine in the freezer it will not freeze can anyone give you an idea of what proof you are talking?

Moonshine typically has a high alcohol content, often around 100 to 180 proof (50% to 90% alcohol by volume). Since pure ethanol freezes at around -173°F (-114°C), a moonshine bottle in the freezer will not freeze if its proof is high enough. Generally, any moonshine above 100 proof (50% ABV) is unlikely to freeze in a standard home freezer, which typically operates around 0°F (-18°C).

How much days does it take for alcohol to freeze?

Water freezes at 0°C (32°F) and the freezing point of ethanol alcohol is -114°C (-173.2°F). Alcoholic beverages are a mixture of both alcohol and water (with sugars and other additives in some distilled spirits) so the freezing point of all of you alcoholic beverages is somewhere in between. The exact freezing point of vodka, gin, tequila, rum, whiskey and the myriad of liqueurs is dependent on its proof, or alcohol per volume. The lower the proof, the warmer the freezing point: the higher the proof, the colder the freezing point.For example:24 proof liquor freezes at -6.7°C (20°F)64 proof liquor freezes at -23.33°C (-10°F)84 proof liquor freezes at -34.44°C (-30°F)These freezing points are much colder than the average home freezer will reach, so chilling or storing a bottle in the freezer should not freeze the liquor inside. However, your freezer could get cold enough to freeze low proof liqueurs, beer and malt beverages. These low proof beverages will get slushy, and eventually freeze, if left in the freezer for too long and can explode leaving a big, frozen mess if it gets too cold.


How long does it take wine to freeze?

It usually takes about 5-6 hours for a standard bottle of wine (750ml) to freeze in a home freezer set at the typical temperature of 0°F (-18°C). However, the exact time can vary depending on the freezer's temperature and the alcohol content of the wine.


Will moonshine freeze when put in freezer?

Moonshine, typically containing a high alcohol content, generally will not freeze in a standard home freezer, which usually operates around 0°F (-18°C). Most moonshines have an alcohol by volume (ABV) of 40% or higher, which lowers the freezing point significantly. However, if the alcohol content is lower, it may freeze or become slushy. Always exercise caution when consuming high-proof spirits.
