The development history of block ice machine

How did ancient people store food without refrigeration?
In winter, dig a cellar at home, go to the frozen lake, move pieces of ice bricks into the cellar, and then move the grain into the cellar, so that the grain can be stored, but the weather in the north is colder and can store grain, and the south? It can be difficult to keep food longer.

With the development of society, the advancement of science and technology and the continuous improvement of people's living standards, people's requirements for food are also increasing.
Ice cubes are one of the best companions for food preservation. Not only can they preserve food, but ice cubes can also bring a touch of coolness to people in the hot summer. So how are ice cubes made?
Dr. John Gorey, the inventor of the ice machine in the United States, is not only a doctor, but also a scientist and inventor. He showed the ice machine to the world in 1851 and obtained the design patent of the ice machine. Considered the father of refrigeration, Thaddeus Lowe invented the first commercial ice machine in 1866, the first commercially produced ice machine. Thus, the first ice machine was born in 1866.
With the change of time, people's demand for ice cubes has increased, and the ice machine is also changing with people's needs, not subject to seasonal changes, can be made in any size, color and shape, and ice can be made anytime, anywhere .

With people's demand for ice cubes, it is no longer small ice cubes, so block ice machines are produced. Block ice has its own more unique advantages. Large ice cubes are more convenient to store, carry and transport. In addition, block ice is in Under the same environmental conditions, compared with other ice types, it is not easy to melt and has a longer shelf life, which brings convenience to transportation in remote areas.
