I have always heard or been told that block ice lasts so much longer, but have never actually found it until recently at my local beer distributor in Manheim, PA(Zern's).
20 lb. blocks.
I have four coolers, three of them are at least 20 years old like my 50 and 60 quart Gotts and my 80 quart Rubbermaid. My 45 quart Yeti is relatively new.
I have to admit that I am very impressed with block ice. So much so that I never let my coolers get to room temperature. One of those blocks will keep a cooler cold for well over a week. Two works even better.
I don't use all of them all of the time, but when I need them, they are very cold and ready to perform.
The Yeti is my beer cooler and stays the coldest. As old as the Gotts are, they stay more than cold enough for a 4 day weekend in the summer.
