Question: If i store alcohol in freezer could the bottle smash or crack once i take it out and it starts to thaw!?!?
Answers:
OK most of the answerers here are really stupid, because they think you're talking about freezing the alcohol!. Hint: most people store alcohol in the freezer because, simply, it cools sooner, and is colder than the fridge!.

Your bottle will be fine!. Glass smashes or cracks when it experiences extreme changes in temperature!. If you were to touch it with something very hot, like a fire poker, the extremes and difference in temperature would crack it!. But simply taking it out and leaving it on a countertop, will not do that!.

If you're really worried, just put in the fridge to warm it even slower!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

The alcohol is irrelevant, it has a lower freezing point, and it would not affect the safety of the bottle in any way!.

The only way that a frozen bottle might crack is if you immediately put it in a hot environment and cause so much stress to the bottle that it cracks!.

As long as you thaw it slowly at room temperature, it's not an issue!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Alcohol won't solidify in a home freezer, it's just not cold enough!. However, alcohol does freeze, it's freezing point is very low!. Assuming you're talking about commercially sold ethanol, its actually a mixture of ethyl alcohol and water and will have a freezing point somewhat about the freezing point of pure alcohol

if you put pure alcohol in the freezer it wont freeze or smash the bottle and you can drink it straight away but i put some beer bottles in the freezer once and the bottes smashedWww@FoodAQ@Com

It has to be something low in alcohol to freeze (for example: wine, liqueur, beer)!.

It usually takes an extreme heat shift to break something!. (Meaning, don't put it on something hot!.)Www@FoodAQ@Com

nope, i keep my vodka in the freezer all the time, especially in the summer and I always put it back in when I am done!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

No - alcohol doesn't freeze at the temperature that you have your freezer set!. Unless you are chemist and have crazy freezers that go down to -114 degrees celsius!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Is this a trick question!?!? Alcohol dosent freeze! Unless it has a lot of other juicy liquids, like a wine cooler or something!. But Hard Liquor dosent freeze!Www@FoodAQ@Com

nooooo
everyone does that -_-
sooo its okay =]Www@FoodAQ@Com

Alcohol does not freeze!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Should be OK if you let it defrost naturally i!.e at room temperature over couple of hours!.Cheers!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
