so Ive been messing with a ice and salt brine to reach recovery temps.

I was just kind of curious what your tech is for creating a nice icey cool
bath for your condensing .

I like to warm up water and dissolve salt into it then add ice and more

salt to help achieve temperatures.

just wondering how ya'll do it.

WolfWurx ended up using alcohol, water, and dry ice in our tricore heat exchanger, and we used a -15C chiller and PG with our counter flow heat exchanger.

what the ratio water to iso( or is it denatured) that you mix with the dry ice?
