Jamie and Adam decide to benchmark the conventional methods of cooling a beer (e.g. cooler with ice, fridge, freezer, et. al.) to see how long they take to cool to about 35-40F. They test the room temperature beer to get a reference point, 62.9F. Then they set up three coolers, one with ice, one with ice water, and one with ice salt water. They also place some beer in the freezer and some in the refrigerator; they plan to test every five minutes to see if it's at drinkable temperature. Meanwhile, they place a six-pack in a bucket and spray it with a fire extinguisher. After three minutes, the beer is at the ideal temperature. At five minutes, the beer in the ice and salt water is done, the fastest of the conventional (and economically feasible) methods. Ice water is next with fifteen, and the freezer is done at 25. Just ice takes half an hour, but the fridge...well, let's just say it's not your best bet at three hours.

probably a few hours

3 hours or more...start it off in the freezer for an hour first...

45 mins.

depends on what temp the beer goes into the fridge.You would have to do a heat load calculation, to determine the exact time. put in cooler, about half hour

if it canned two hrs bottles i don't know

Depends on the temp of the beer before you put it in. Freeze it for 45 min then put it in the fridge. NICE AND COLD.

About 3-4 hours or longer, if you need it cold quick put individual cans up in the freezer for 15-20 minutes.

46 minutes at a temp of 35 degrees

Three quarters of an hour!

It will be a little while, if you need to chill it fast put it in ice water.

when the mountains turn blue.

IT SHOULD ALREADY BE COLD UN LESS YOU GOT IT OUT OF THE FLOOR IN A STORE THEN IT WOULD TAKE FIVE HOUR
