   Try Press & Seal over the ice cube tray. It seals completely around the rim of your ice cube tray. You can even poke a hole in it and fill your empty tray and it won’t spill when you transfer it to the freezer!

   i think the best way is “”The adsorbtion”", just put a small plate with some charcoal small parts in it (it will work better in poweder form) then leave this plate in the ref. it will adsorb (not absorb) all the bas smells and unkinds taste from water, ice and any kind of drinks.

   Put the ice cube tray in a tupperware. It will be cold enough to be frozen, but it will lock out the freezer odors.

    Stick an opened box of baking soda in the freezer (every 3 months or so). Not only will your ice cubes stay tasteless, but any other weird odors are gone, gone, gone. Have a great day!

    That exact same thing happened to me! I put plastic wrap and foil over the ice / ice machine. Or put in one of those baking powder packets you can find at stores!

    what i find to work is put just a piece of saran wrap over the ice cubes…then just remove the saran wrap when you need the ice cubes
