1. Shape reduces dilution for a purer spirit and greater enjoyment
2. Solid copper (99.8%) construction is 1.7x more conductive than aluminum and weighs 3x more (16-17 lbs)
3. Pinless design makes for flawless, long-lasting performance
4. Trickledown grooves guide meltwater to a solid CatchAll™ base
5. Handcrafted in the United States
To use Meltdown, simply slide the top off, place the ice cylinder within, and replace the cover. Due to the weight and conduction of the solid copper design, Meltdown begins the ice diamond-making process immediately.
As Meltdown forms an ice diamond, meltwater is channeled down the sides of the device along four cascading grooves designed into the sidewall.
In one minute (assuming the device is room temperature), you’ll have a pure and beautiful ice diamond that’s ready for your cocktail.
The runoff water is captured in Meltown’s CatchAll™ Base, so you can pour it away before making another ice diamond.
Most ice presses use pins that guide the cover down the press, but pins present two potential flaws: First, pins can cause “chattering” since ice does not melt uniformly. So, as the top of the press descends, if the pins are not perfectly aligned, they catch on the top of the press. Secondly, if that ice press is dropped, the pins are weakened and can also be damaged.
Meltdown features a pinless design with the cover riding in grooves engineered into the base. Our design features three pieces of solid copper with self-guiding grooves assuring alignment to protect your investment.
