Brilio.net - Glasses that have been washed are usually just stacked to save storage space. In fact, it is not uncommon for some people to deliberately stack two or several glasses together. In fact, this makes the glasses stick to each other and is difficult to remove.
If it is already stuck, the glass is difficult to remove. The reason is, the glass can shrink after being left at room temperature. This change in temperature makes the glass increasingly difficult to separate.
Knowing this, a number of people deliberately pulled the glass with all their strength. However, this risks causing the glass to crack or even break. If that's the case, the glass will eventually just be thrown away because it can't be used.
If you have a case like this at home, there's no need to worry because there are other ways you can practice to remove stuck glass. This method was demonstrated by Instagram user @indah3yani. At the beginning of the video, he shows the appearance of his two glasses stuck together. Even though it was pulled as hard as possible, the position of the glass did not seem to change at all.

Knowing this, he immediately filled the bowl with hot water. Make sure you use a large amount so that the glass can be completely submerged. If so, put the glass in the bowl and wait a few moments.
"Wait and leave it for 1-2 minutes," he said, quoted by BrilioFood from Instagram @indah3yani on Wednesday (8/5).

After letting it sit, this netizen added one drink ingredient, namely ice cubes, to the glass. You don't need a lot, just put about 3-4 cubes of ice in the glass.
"Leave it for a few minutes, then the glass will be easy to remove," explained the owner of the video.

Pull the glass slowly using both hands. Without expending any extra effort, the two glasses immediately came off by themselves. This is because the bottom glass expands because it is soaked in hot water. Meanwhile, a glass filled with ice cubes will shrink. As a result, the glasses are different sizes so they are easy to remove.

This video also succeeded in attracting the attention of netizens. Many netizens also expressed their gratitude for being told about this trick in the video comments column.
Storing ice cubes at room temperature or in conditions that are not too cold can be challenging because they tend to melt quickly. However, there are several ways to slow down the melting process of ice cubes at room temperature:
Store ice cubes in an airtight container or in a tight plastic bag, to prevent warm air from entering and speeding up melting.
Place a moisture-absorbing material, such as silica gel or raw rice, in an ice cube tray. These ingredients will help absorb any moisture that may be around the ice cubes and keep them dry.
If possible, add dry ice to the ice cube tray. Dry ice will help keep the temperature around the ice cube low and slow the melting process.
Store ice cubes in a thermos or ice cube box made of thick, well-insulated material. This will help keep the temperature of the ice cubes low and prevent rapid melting.
Place the ice cube tray in a shady, cool place, away from heat sources and direct sunlight.
By applying some of the methods above, you will slow down the melting process of ice cubes when stored at room temperature. Make sure to check the ice cubes regularly and add dry ice or moisture-absorbing agents as necessary to maintain temperature and dryness.
