Chapter 357: Wouldn't that melt faster?

   Chapter 357 Wouldn't that be faster?

   This bamboo tube is equivalent to making a popsicle mold.

When the solid popsicle is made, it is demoulding, that is, taking the popsicle out of the bamboo tube. This is also simple. Just put the bamboo tube under the water and wash it. It will be demolded soon, and then you can hold the popsicle stick. Take out the popsicle in the bamboo tube.

   Of course, there are other ways, but this one is enough.

   Thinking of this, Jiang Yuecai walked up to Xue Yan and whispered, "Take the hatchet."

   Now the hatchet is right next to their eldest brother. The family thinks she is too small and won't let her touch these things. Only he is the most suitable one.

   "What do you want a machete for?" Xue Yan looked at her.

   "Go chop bamboo and make popsicles then."

   "Psicles?"

"Well, it is a mixture of water, sugar, fruit juice, etc., and then frozen into something. You can use whatever flavor you want. It's like a brine popsicle, so you don't need to add any juice. There is no suitable mold here. I just wanted to use a bamboo tube, and then pour the mixed things into the bamboo tube, and when the pot is enlarged like a small pot, it will be frozen inside. The frozen thing is poured out of the bamboo tube, just like a round stick, It is also like a round stick, so it can also be called a popsicle. It can also be made into other shapes, not necessarily stick-shaped, but it takes a lot of effort to toss the mold of that shape, or directly chop bamboo, and make some not very good Thick, but not too thin, bamboo tubes are suitable."

   "If it doesn't melt, can you pour it out of the bamboo tube?"

"Yes, just rinse the surface of the bamboo tube with water, and it will be poured out soon. Usually, it is not poured. Before the ice stick is frozen, a stick that is much thinner than the popsicle will be inserted into it. After rinsing the surface of the bamboo tube with water, holding the thin stick, the popsicle can be easily taken out from the inside. We just took the thin stick, the hand could not touch the popsicle, and it was clean and convenient for walking. eat."

  Xue Yan knew what this popsicle was like, but he remained silent for a while before saying, "There is another question."

"what is the problem?"

"Just leave a large piece of ice like that. It will take a lot longer to melt completely. If you make a particularly large piece, it is estimated that it will not be fully melted if you can bring it to the town, but you haven't got a popsicle in the town yet. , it is estimated that it will be finished.”

   "You just leave it like that, of course it will melt." Jiang Yue said. "But if you wrap it in a quilt, it won't melt, and even if it does, it will melt very slowly."

   Although Xue Yan never doubted the authenticity of her words, she was still quite surprised: "Cover with a quilt? Wouldn't it melt faster?"

   He hadn't heard of using a quilt to cover the ice, and naturally he had never seen it.

   But the quilt will be very warm, if it is covered with ice, the ice should melt... faster, right?

Jiang Yue knew that all aspects of ancient times were backward, and there were limitations in this area, so he didn't know that this principle was normal, so he said: "The quilt itself does not generate heat, but it can prevent the conduction of external heat, and it can also prevent The cold air from the ice inside is released, so that the ice inside can stay at a low temperature for a long time and will not melt. Not to mention that it will not melt for a few days, but it can still be guaranteed to keep it for several hours. Covering the body is warm, because the heat generated by the human body is equal to heat dissipation, and it is there all the time, but the quilt prevents the heat from dissipating, so it will feel warm."

   is really insightful.

   Now, Xue Yan was silent for a longer time.
