Replying to Is this snowmaking?

so i wanna start snowmaking, i have a air compressor but no snow gun som im gonna have to borrow one from a friend. I took my compressor outside and filled up a 2 leiter of water and poked a hole in the cap. I turned on the compressor and sprayed the water into the air. Some water fell and turned to ice but alot was in this steamy cloud. is that what the snow comes from? there wasnt any snow when i was done, how much water do you need for snow?
