Sooooo. I decided to try the advice of refrigerating the trays overnight.
So I boiled the water, filled the trays and let them cool overnight on the counter.
Then I put them in the refrigerator overnight and decided to put one in the freezer and then I would put the other one in the next morning.
But I forgot. Then we went out of town for a couple of days.
When we got back the tray in the fridge was partially frozen and clear. So I put it in the freezer this morning.
The result was pretty amazing. Well to a clear ice freak.
Here we have the refirgerated overnight cubes. Almost clear. Better than anything else I’ve seen.

And here is the tray that was slowly half frozen over a 3 day period in the fridge and moved to the freezer. They are completely clear.
