The coke bottles from the freezer were actually supercooled. the temperature of the soda was below freezing, but there were no seed sites for crystals to form. Once the bottles were opened, the escaping carbon dioxide provided enough of a disturbance for the ice to start forming.

The syrup has a foaming agent in it that normal soda syrup does not have. Syrup (with a foaming agent in it), water and CO2 is all you put in the machine. The machine has a pump for the syrup from a bag in a box, a CO2 line and a water line. Quillaia extract is an example of a foaming agent used.

[@freaksed]

Personal trick for homemade slurpee. Boil the soda down around a third of the way, and then freeze it. You should be able to break it apart with a spoon pretty easily and when you stir it will just break up into the slush (like if you freeze a real slurpee it gets a bit more solid but doesn't hold together) My theory is that they use a much higher syrup ratio in the mix. You'll notice if you just freeze soda in a cup you get a white ice layer at the top, but with this method you don't get that.

[@DarkArachnid666]

Hey guys, not sure if you knew this, but you can do a syrup reduction by filling a saucepan with your soft drink of choice, bringing it to a boil and then, reducing the temperature to "low" and letting it simmer for (approximately) half an hour. You can reduce the volume up to 1/9th of the original (1/6 is the recommended). Very useful when you need a more concentrated flavor!!!

that video grant made about slurpees will always be my favorite

[@abadgurl2010]

My favorite method is by mostly freezing the drink after opening it, then with the top properly screwed on you shake it with force so the frozen drink breaks up into pieces and you eventually have a slushy that tastes better than the fast-food ones imo. This method might not work with those thin water bottles that are supposed to be more eco-friendly because thinner plastic means weaker plastic.

Hey guys I've been a big fan of the show for years! First time commenting though. So truth be told I've worked in a couple places that sell slushies/ slurpees, and funny enough the way we made them was literally to crack open a 2 liter of soda and pour it into the machine. That's it. So you guys got it spot on. The only minor difference which is a reason I never buy slurpees anymore. Is when the machine ran low. They just have us top it off. So in my opinion that minor difference in taste/ texture.... is just old soda.... sorry :(
