I've used hot water in a bowl and changed it every 15 minutes or so. I also have a heater, intended to be used as a defroster. It takes a little longer, but, it's a little safer, then some of the other methods.
Better; I must admit I was concerned about breaking coolant lines when I had to remove the rest of the ice manually. One big chunk had wrapped around a coolant line and I had to hold the chunk with one hand and hit it with a bread knife handle until it broke away.
