Might not see this but hey. I was able to make ice cream in my dryer. The method of the bottle in the plastic container was getting there, but not quite. I used two metal containers, ice cream inside the small one, inside the large one surrounded by ice and ice cream salt, sealed tightly and graciously padded so as not to damage the washer's inside. Turned out delicious, and was JUST the right level of frozen. (Side note, make sure the smaller metal container is not vacuum sealed, and it works better if the two containers are actually fused together so that the inside container isn't bouncing around the inside the larger container. Maybe weld them together?) I originally got the idea from an ice cream soccer ball that I use to have as a child. It was basically the same concept, but you kicked it instead of abusing your dryer.

For the ice cream, using pre-crushed ice would help prevent punctures, especially if you got the pieces small like shaved ice. And then you'd want really heavy-duty bags, like the kind used for sous vide, or using a thick and sturdy Tupperware that's taped shut for the ice container. Probably also stick it to the drum of the dryer, like with double sided tape or something. It might tumble a bit less, but there's probably a lower chance of it breaking that way.

Why not use the plastic bottle/container idea, but instead of just putting it loose in the dryer, duct tape it to the barrel as well? Throw in additional salt and it will churn as it rolls in the inside of the larger bottle.

Suggestions for ice cream, having made a bit myself with a homemade crank one: more salt for the ice- lots more salt, and realistically more ice as well. Basically you need to create saltwater as it has a lower freezing temp than the ice cream, and more salt makes that more efficient. Also- they make glass mason jars about the same size as your plastic one, with metal lids. Maybe also try attaching it to a side, to keep the motion consistent. (Something you try to do with hand crank ice cream makers is not stop the motion, so inconsistent motion and change in direction might be working against you.) Good luck! Hope that gave you some ideas! Look forward to the next attempt!

[@existentialrookie5432]

I was thinking maybe a top load plastic dryer might also help. The one they have is a front load, made with metal, and is a bit too big, which causes big inconsistent motion to the plastic bag/jar of ice.

[@cullenlatham2366]

not sure if glass is the right option, at least without changing other factors like affixing it to the barrel itself. If even plastic, with a higher elastic deformation potential, got shattered by the various tumbling, the glass will likely become dangerous.

[@rvcloud]

@@cullenlatham2366 excellent point, which is why I also suggested attaching it to the side. A sealable metal container might work better in case the attachment fails- however metal will also contract with the cold and make the container harder to open, or won't seal well enough to contain the ice water. I do think if they do test a large glass mason jar, wrapping it tightly in a blanket and tying it up might be a good idea as well as attaching it to one of the walls.

[@poisonpenfairy2844]

But one thing that didn't make sense to me is ice cream needs a lot of air to get churned into it - with all the necessary sealing of jars I don't see how you could get enough air in to make ice cream

[@rvcloud]

I made ice cream in a bag when I was little, a couple recommendations: 1) The jar probably would have worked if you had reinforced the lid (maybe with duck tape); 2) Temperature, make the ice colder by putting some rock salt in with it. With those two things, you can make something resembling soft-serve in about 5 minutes; if you want something firm, like Dreyer's (ha, pun), it would probably take about 4 hours (you may have to switch out the ice a couple times). Maybe use a food sealer to make a bag for the cream, those things are pretty tough.

[@MrScorpianwarrior]

Wow. How did they _not_ make a Dreyer's pun!?

[@wallywallace2184]

Ice cream in a bag was a great.

[@freindlycommentator1710]

in the frame where we see them put the jug in you can actually see something shiny like foil surrounding the lid which is presumably tape as well as a small canister of iodized salt

[@alexwalker2582]

@@freindlycommentator1710 Yes they had foil tape surrounding the edge of the lid but not on top. What kilroy is suggesting, and I agree with, is covering the ENTIRE lid in duct/foil tape to provide some extra reinforcement to the harder and more fragile lid.

In chemistry class, we used a can with ingredients inside a bigger can with ice and salt. The thermodynamics unit was the perfect excuse to make ice cream in class XD Honestly, your biggest problem is the container breaking/leaking when it's tumbled...

It probably would have worked if it was tightly packed crushed ice with salt in a tub and the milk in a heat sealed bag also putting angel delight or something similar in the milk would give it a bigger chance of working

With the ice cream bags breaking i would assume the ice had some sharp edges that punctured the bags. Maybe if you made some special ice in those round ice trays so that there are no sharp edges it would work? Or maybe line the plastic bags with some sort of cutproof nylon bag so it can’t puncture the plastic

[@ash1060]

maybe make a mold with the ice to incase the bottle?

You know, when I first heard of Food Theory, I was kind of skepctic because what was there to theorize about? But now it's my favorite theorist channel! I just love Mat and Steph's dynamic on camera, and how casual they are about the grossest of stuff a human being can put in their mouth Not to sound like I'm deep into the Parasocial Trap, but they just feel like a fun couple to hang out with, ya know? 10/10 experience, I just worry a little about their health lmao

They really do have a great dynamic on camera. GT Live has a lot of content where both of them were sat on a couch playing games and chatting. It's mostly just MatPat at the moment but the more casual dynamic is very fun. Partially why I've loved Food Theory so much, honestly. It's what-ifs and shenanigans!

[@MackAfton]

[@craftylittleguy]

Hi! Lover of food and puzzles here :D If you seal the ice cream in a small aluminum canister this should work a lot better. Aluminum is dryer safe, it's common to put aluminum foil in dryers to help with static actually! Adding something inside to help mix it, similarly to how you did the butter, should also help. A lot of highly rated ice cream makers are built like this, with a canister holding the ice cream ingredients surrounded by a larger canister that contains the coolant. Plus you won't have to worry about the ice piercing the bag : )

[@blueee0088]

For the coolant you can even use milk, as they found out recently

[@grantsorensen1366]

Yes milk😂

[@NeinKyori]

What about taping the canister to the center of the dryer. So that it would just spin and mix the milk inside instead of tumbling around and spilled its content

[@_korbo_]

Well considering I have never ever heard of ANYONE putting aluminum in a dryer, I don't know if I'd call it "common".
