Where can I find a good printable chart of cold bath temperatures?

It should, for example give the temperatures for various dry-ice/organic solvent mixtures, liquid nitrogen/organic solvent mixtures, and salt/water/ice mixtures. Temperatures should range from room temperature down to -100 C or below.

That list of temperatures is so specific (w/r/t solvents) that it's almost unhelpful. Yet, every group has a printout of that list.

This wiki list, I feel, is a better, more detailed and simpler version:

The Hoveyda Group has put together this useful table of low temperature baths.

There is a book called The Chemist's Companion, A handbook of data, techniques and references, by Grdon and Ford, published by Wiley in 1972 which is crammed full of data. This would also help the other questions here about solubility etc. There is a complete list of temperature baths on page 451, from 13°C to -160°C. It is easier to find things in there than in the good old Rubber book.
