There is a drink chiller that chills drinks in about a minute. You could use the same idea for other things.

The Chill-O-Matic is smaller, cheaper and probably easier to clean as it doesn't seem to have tubing.

The design of that machine in your link is a lot of overkill for something simple.

Removing heat energy is what your freezer does, by transferring it outside of the freezer box.

You can’t just remove heat by adding electromagnetic energy. Absorbing energy from the electromagnetic radiation makes heat.

Edit: whelp, TIL

Except that you can.

In beer brewing there's a point where you want to cool your beer down as quickly as possible.
A chiller is dropped into the just cooked wort. (wort is the beer before fermentation).
It goes from steaming hot to room temperature very quickly.
It's just a spiral pipe that you run cold water through.
Sounds like you need something like that for a potato.

These are all word for word the same answers to the not poop for 3 days quest.

yeah, not only microwave but heater in general... but reversed, i asked myself that question for a long time, i mean we pump an electricity into the wire and we get heat, why not reverse? why we can "magically" get heat from electrons but to get something cold we need to pump the heat elsewhere, like microwave basically make atoms vibrate generating heat, would be cool to be able to generate some field that makes atoms stop

The reverse microwave. I heard you need a LOT of freon.

Not really proven. It's theorized to be possible, but nothing emits cold that we know of in the same way. Microwaves, use waves (citation needed) to heat up the food, cold to our know doesn't work the same way.

Fridge, well. But now I'm wondering if that would be possible with electromagnetic radiation somehow. Would it be possible to direct infrared waves away from a closed chamber, making the inside cooler? Like a semipermeable membrane in shoes with water vapor?

I don’t know if it’s a stupid question or not but I have been wondering this myself for years. :)
