A novelty clear-ice mold from ORI Future that freezes a dimpled golf-ball-shaped cube measuring about 2.56 inches square, in a mold roughly 3.94 by 7.09 inches. The kit pairs a BPA-free silicone mold with a stainless steel body and two plastic liners, using a directional-freeze approach: the stainless shell pulls heat out from one side so the cloudy part gets pushed down and away, leaving the visible ball clear. The maker notes you should use mineral, tap, or boiled tap water for the clearest result. It is a gift-first product rather than a volume ice solution, since you get one ball per cycle. Best fit: golfers, Father's Day and birthday gifting, and anyone building a home bar with a sense of humor.
Pros
- Directional freeze with a stainless body gives you genuinely clear ice, not cloudy novelty ice
- Dimpled golf ball shape is the whole point and it reads instantly as a gift
- Silicone mold is BPA-free and the stainless shell does the actual thermal work
- Comes with two liners so you are not buying consumables right away
Cons
- One ball per freeze cycle, so this is a gift and a party trick rather than a way to keep a freezer stocked
Frequently asked questions
Does it really make clear ice or just regular ice in a golf shape?
It uses directional freezing: the stainless body draws heat from one direction so impurities and trapped air get pushed into a lower section, leaving the golf ball itself clear. The maker recommends mineral, tap, or boiled tap water for the best clarity.
How many ice balls does it make at once?
One per freezing cycle. This is a novelty and gift item rather than a high-volume mold, so if you need ice for a party you will want a standard tray alongside it.
How big is the finished ice ball?
About 2.56 by 2.56 inches, which fits a standard rocks glass. The mold itself is roughly 3.94 by 7.09 inches, so measure your freezer shelf height before ordering.
Why does my ice come out cloudy?
Almost always the water. Directional freezing works best with mineral water, plain tap water, or tap water that has been boiled and cooled. Heavily filtered or distilled water can behave unpredictably.
