Quest for perfect ice: Ice making for curling

Ice is seemingly simple—just bring water to a temperature below 32°F (0°C), and you are done. Unfortunately, a number of sporting enthusiasts would respectfully disagree.

Each has a different definition of "perfect" ice, and curlers are often considered the biggest divas of the bunch, possibly for good reason.
