Mike said: oh,no,you are wrong.I have found as below for this question(Why are ice cubes at home 'white', but in restaurants they're 'clear'?),it will help you,my kids.
Is it because of special water filters or something?
Answer:
The best way to answer the clear ice question is to think about icicles.
If you live in an area where icicles form in the winter, you know that icicles are normally clear and beautiful. There are two things that make icicles so perfect:
Icicles are made from pure water in the form of melted snow.
Icicles are created in layers. Water drips down the icicle and freezes in progressive layers rather than freezing all at once. This approach avoids entrapped bubbles.
If you ever look inside a restaurant ice maker, you will find that it makes ice in layers. Cold water runs continuously over a plate or a grid where the ice is forming, and the ice cubes (or ice disks in some machines) grow in layers.
If you would like to try creating clear ice at home, start with distilled water (to eliminate the minerals) and boil it (to eliminate air dissolved in the water). Make the cubes small or thin to get closer to the way that icicles are formed.
tht is what i'm thinking or the probably use carbonated water
I don't know what's in your water, but my ice cubes are not white.
I disagree. Ice cubes at home is also clear. Check your water supply or cooling system in your house.
it may be but ithink it is because in the restaurants the temp is not as cold as your freezer
Could it be because you have hard of soft water?
Does that make a difference?
Either way, Casper, you are annoying me.
What on earth could you ever benefit from learning the answer to this question?
Really?
You are such a Lalo....and very suspicious of old men.
