To anybody wondering: In the past knives were boiled to sterylize them usually before cutting up meat that was meant to be eaten raw or semi-raw. Syringes were also boiled before being used.
Recipe: 4 cups of sugar A cup and a half of water 2 2/3 of corn syrup Directions: Low heat until sugar dissolves, then turn to medium Once done put it in the oven for 10-15min Then put it on the sheet and let it dry
You can also get the sugar to be clear using the recipe they use, but it is way harder and you have to be washing down the sides very often, as to not let it caramelize.
Top notch it certainly simplifies the process. alot of other videos make it sound complicated but you take all the complications away with your easy to follow instructions thanks for another great video 👍
Was Cali working behind the scenes for a while? She said, "it's been our home for a very long time". A heat gun also works great for removing all the surface air bubbles. Great video!
Put orbeez into a blender when they are dehydrated, then do some experiments with the orbeez powder that you get, for e.g put a medium amount of the powder into a cup of water and see what happens👍
I'm really glad to see an actual new "project" that has some purpose behind it. Not that the other videos aren't fun, but I subscribed for the projects.
I want to see a break away glass bottle mold now, because the discoloration on the sugar lends itself well to stuff like beer or soda bottles, that tend to be darker sometimes anyways.
You can make clear sugar glass. It just needs to be done really slowly and you use a wet brush to brush down the sides to keep the sugar from crystallising.
Pretty cool video I’m 57 years old and I remember as a kid watching Westerns being mystified by Hollywood’s “Magic” of people getting thrown through windows and getting chairs broken over their heads and my Dad telling me about Sugar Glass and the Breakaway chairs I had never seen Sugar glass before today
If you cook the sugar at the right temp it doesn't caramelize. It just takes some trial and error for your area.pour onto parchment paper. Then score while it's cooling. Breaks exactly.
sugar glass is not yellow just by virtue of being sugar. it only caramelizes if you cook it too long. you even said in the video it was ~350F, which is past both hard crack (~300F) and caramelization (~340F). if you want hard crack, you can't leave it on the hot stove after you've hit hard crack.
Okay, so let's do this! We are now able to break the window safely without glass going everywhere. Then uses a blowtorch on a knife and holds the blowtorch with one hand.
