At this point, do you add ice and soak for 15 to 20 minutes?

It depends. If I got distracted and they started to roll, I will add ice. If they are bigger crawfish, I may let them go a bit longer and add ice because it makes me feel better.

It's like any other kind of cooking except baking. you have to feel it and cannot rely on a scientific formula.
