I find that making ice from hot water produces clearer cubes. The theory behind this is that since cold water absorbs more gas it produces lower quality ice. Hot water may have more solids disolved in it but less gas and there is little opportunity for the water to absorb gas during the freezing process. Try it some time if you doubt this assertion.
