At what temperature does alcohol freeze?
To know at what temperature does Gin freeze, we must know at what temperature does alcohol freeze.
The alcohol freezing point depends on the type of alcohol and its concentration. For example, the freezing point of ethanol (the type of alcohol used in alcoholic beverages) is -114°C. However, the higher the concentration of alcohol in a solution, the lower its freezing point.
Temperature at which Gin freezes
Gin freezes at a temperature of about -15 degrees Celsius.
The temperature at which a liquid freezes depends on its chemical composition and environmental pressure.
Gin is an alcoholic beverage consisting mainly of ethanol and water. The freezing point of ethanol is -114°C, while that of water is 0°C at 1 atm of pressure.
As mentioned above, gin, which has an ethanol concentration of 37-40%, so it freezes at a temperature close to -15°C due to its composition.
Gin conservation
Clear beverages such as vodka and gin should be stored similarly to dark liquor once opened. It is recommended to keep them away from sunlight and with the bottle tightly closed. Some people decide to keep them cold, but it’s not really a requirement.
