Does anyone here have experience transporting and storing dry ice?
First, call the seafood section of any local supermarket, and ask if they sell dry ice. If they don't, they probably know who does (since people know to call seafood suppliers when searching for dry ice.) Seafood, and also ice-cream shops. Here locally, the QFC markets all sell it. But during halloween week, you can only get some if you'd first reserved it months in advance!
If you keep it stored in an ordinary freezer how long will ice cube sized pieces last? The closest supplier I can find is a 2.5 hour drive away. Will it even last 2.5 hours if stored in a cooler or thermos bottle? Would larger chunks be better? Thanks. Harry
