The fastest way to cool the can drink is by PUTTING IT IN A BUCKET OF ICE AND SALT!
Looks like our hypothesis was wrong!

Bucket of ice

A bucket of 840g ice is the fastest way so far.

Fridge

Here are the results. Unfortunately, it did not reach 10degc. In fact, after it reached a certain temperature, the temperature increased. we thought we did something wrong so we repeated it and the result turned out to be the same.

We have decided to eliminate the bucket of cold water component, as it is really hopeless.
We measured the temperature of cold water, and it is around 11degc. It would be impossible for it to reach 10degc.

Freezer

It takes 43mins to cool a can of drink to 10degc by the freezer. Here are the results:
Start: 28.41degc
1min: 28.11degc
2min: 27.5degc
3min: 27.1degc
8min: 23.65degc
10min: 21.92degc
15min: 19.72degc
20min: 18.18degc
25min: 16.28degc
30min: 14.26degc
35min: 12.84degc
40min: 11.42degc
41min: 11.06degc
42min: 10.71degc
43min: 9.50degc
more results coming soon

about the experiment procedure

ok so this is it erm firstly i will pass the dataloger to sabrina so she might do the experiment first if no one is going to start ok?maybe i would go to her house on sat to see if possible anyone can make it??? try laaa(:
