@@josephlaliberte9899 hey, know it's been a long time but do you have further information on how the bypass valve works? a link to buy an appropriate one? thanks
You would need something like a Liebig condenser with something very cold pumped thru it. In other words, brew the coffee and then put some ice in it. LOL.
@@jubjuber1A vacuum regulator would in theory help but i dont know if it would slow the suction enough to let the coffee cool down before returning to the flask. But another concerns to look at is: 1.) Temp shocking; Basically hit a very hot object with an icy cold liquid and have it shatter. 2.) the flavor profile is very sensitive, if you keep the vacuum as is and have an arctic chiller where the coolant is 0°C (32°F) and youre rushing it downward after the initial boil, it may throw the flavor off completely. Flip side is if you have less vacuum, it may allow it too cool faster but wont be concentrated as well and it would be a lighter and bitter coffee because you didnt let it brew the right time and for too long and youre only will recover a good small amount. Best reccomendation: Just cool it after words without ice in a freezer for a few hours or do a cold pour with a whiskey ball.
If you don't like bitter coffee add saffron to the grounds. It's the best addition I have ever found for coffee. It milds dark coffee enough to really taste the coffee instead of the acid.

looks nice I like the lichtenberg figures! Maybe use glas fitting next time for a better look:) As a chemist I have to say -> the "coil" is an air cooler, the "coil" inside the glas one with silicon tubing is also a condensor but made for water cooling (via the tubing), your "bunsen burners" are just regular alcohol burners not actual bunsen burners, also you should clamp the condensors at the bottom not in the middle the will otherwise be more likely to break because they expend when heated (the should only held in place losely but the end)
The sintered glass disk of the "filter" is called a "Frit" and is designed to have a paper filter disk on top. Not to be used alone as the pores of the ftitted glass will clog. A whole lot easier to clean afterwards too. Paper disks come in various pore sizes. (Millipore is a manufacturer of filter papers in standard diameters. :) Notice that as the boiling flask cools and a vacuum develops, the pressure inside the system goes below the vapor pressure of the hot liquid and the solution boils again. Cool.
i wonder if there's a workable way to transfer to a cooler capture flask, disassembling a huge glass stick with oven mitts on *before* I've had my coffee seems a little dangerous
Instead of a round-bottom flask, use a separatory funnel with a side-mounted heat source. when the coffee is done brewing just open the valve into a mug.
Angry White Conservative -- great idea. I was sure he would be using the separator funnel but I guess he wasn’t a Chemistry Major. I taught Microbiology and had a micro biology lab, chemistry lab, and a physiology lab at my use. (Graduate level) Man did I do some crazy stuff on my own. Guess the statute of limitations is up so there. Good Times Dude. William White would have been impressed!
Johnathan you absolutely rock!! Finding this one in my email box was as delightful as any of the other tips you’ve passed on to us woodworking enthusiasts, very groovy stuff!!
Great project. I love vacuum coffee makers. If you ever revisit this project, consider supporting the coil as well as the funnel so you only have to remove the bottom flask. Happy daze.
@@Max-se3ii there is, he's just not using it right. After the water goes up you're supposed to turn down the heat and keep the water in upper chamber for a minute and stir. Then remove heat and drawdown

@@djpoizon2k9 Epoxy always creates a bit of heat, no matter how much or how little you pour. However, in smaller amounts, the total heat generated is less, thus it's not as noticeable.
I work at a Starbucks Reserve, and we brew siphons a lot. Love the tea like consistency it gives off. And this is the most badass siphon brewer I've ever seen in my life. Starbucks Reserve NEEDS THIS ONE. thanks for the video now I need to make one of my own. Lol
Actually it is a method of making coffee called the Siphon Method. I dont know if it is a laboratory thing, but Im a barista, I am really sure it is a siphon but you are a master of making that thing a beast!
this is a vacuum pot . similar in principle though . here the steam pressure keeps the water aloft. remove the heat and the vacuum pulls the coffee down. very similar to a siphon pot howevr those work on gravity alone
The cost of these components have doubled on Amazon. This is a great indication of a great video. Well done, Jonathan. I'll put one of these together in a year or two when I can afford it. LOL
The prices he said are Way Off. Unless that was very, very bad quality glassware. If you are serious about this, look for Real laboratory glassware like Pyrex (easy to find, top brand). BTW, there is NO WAY a video like this affects the price of laboratory equipment. No Way. LOL. Cute thought though...
Oh! You beat me to it! I’m planning a build of a cold-drip coffee brewer later this summer. I’m a total coffee nerd. We have like 8 different methods of making coffee in our kitchen alone. Great video! Beautiful machine! Awesome build, man!
you put another way to enjoy coffee, after that sublime smell of coffee getting wet with hot water, now you can see it rolling down before you drink. Dude, thats something.
Some of those components (more specifically the glass coil) are used for a machine that's known as a rotovap. What it does is creates a vacuum chamber in the flask (round bottom flasks) then it uses heated water to remove moisture from the sample but leaving behind the product of interest. The coils suck the moisture and as it travels it cools down to a liquid that you can then collect or dispose of.
I saw the title and was like "yay!" . I watched the vid and was like "nah". It's Breaking Bad _style_ , yes, you could also say "laboratory style", that would be less misleading. The trick within the Breaking Bad coffeemaking contraption was to apply a vacuum to reduce the boiling point of the water, yet make it climb through the syphon. This makes a softer brew, while keeping a good stir but with less acid and bitter. This is a bit more complicated, though. It would be nice to have a flask with built in tap and an adjustable electric heater. The woodwork here is great anyways.
THIS is like a Japanese style'd coffee maker Drip Tower Cold Brew maker. This is something you can buy for like 400~. Great Video Could make this much cheaper
except that this is called a syphon, so it makes hot coffee and a cold drip is used for cold coffee. Also this isn't like Cold drip at all. You insert the cold water on top and the coffee is below, so that the water can drip down, into the coffee. With this syphon you put the coffee on top of the hot water. So you couldn't use this for cold brew you would have to change the whole thing. cold drip/ cold brew doesn't use vacuum to extract coffee oils. even though they look quite the same they work completely different.
The only reason I enjoyed this video is that I was a scientific glassblower for over 40 years. I worked in both industry and at the university level making both production and custom glassware. I've written books on laboratory processes & procedures. Watching you struggle with identifying the items you were working with here was howlingly funny. Hopefully, no one will get hurt while making this; there are ample areas where they can. Good luck!
Dude, this was such a cool project! And I have to say your footage looks amazing! If you don't mind me asking, do you grade your own footage? And what profile do you film in? ( I use the same camera that's why I'm curious) keep up the great work ✌️
Sorry late to the response party here. Love your channel. Yes we grade our own footage. I can get you the profile info if you email me. Let's collaborate on something!
If I could suggest a tool to add to your repertoire if you're going to mess with chemistry parts again, there's a set of needles use to cut standard sized holes in bung plugs with higher consistency and less effort than drilling
by the way, with the distiller one, you can chill your coffee when the is brewing and have a nice chill coffee it will be more work and you have to figure out some parts but you can do an amazing chill cofee
I need to make one of these. A small safety tip: When pushing a glass tube through a stopper, use a little water as a lubricant. Also wrap the tube in several layers of paper towel so that if it breaks, the glass is contained and your hands are given a little more protection. You then grip the stopper in one hand and the tube in the other like a pair of bicycle handles. Apply moderate pressure and twist back and forth. DO NOT try to 300 pound gorilla the tube in. It will be more difficult and the chance to break the tube, impaling yourself with glass is much higher. Remember; glass is strong, but brittle.
I love this coffee! The Costa Rican Tarrazu coffee is amazing and I also like that it’s always roasted fresh and has a roasted on stamp. I drank black rifle coffee for a long time but this is a lot better and is also owned by vets and ex police officers!
Ridiculously time-consuming to build and clean, a monstrous machine for the everyday task of making coffee.

Awesome video. If you poured a base layer of epoxy then put a small object (coins, flowers, etc) on top of the cured base layer then pour a second layer to encapsulate it. Would there be a visible line between the 2 layers of epoxy?
Jonathan Katz-Moses awesome! You’ve just unleashed a creative furry in my mind. I’ve always wanted to try some ideas but epoxy is pretty expensive to experiment with

The helical tubes are to help improve the condensing of the gas sent through them. So for example, if you're distilling say Water. You'll boil the water at 99-101 degrees as controlled as possible, the steam will travel up from the spherical flask, and then into your condensing tube. Which (for this propose) should have a cold liquid flowing through a charger around the tube. But if we replace our tube, with a helical/helix tube (spiral glass tube), we're increasing the surface area for the steam to touch, and quickly loose it's heat energy to the glass and coolant. So their essentially to increase surface area for condensing liquids and gases.
@@katzmosestools hence why your second(?) brewing stand has a glass chamber around the helix :p water goes in the top, and then drained out the bottom. That's essentially how Distilling alcohol from water works, if you want to collect it afterwards. Set to 78(?)DegC and the Alcohol steams up to the condenser.
You can get some fun reactions repairing old holed up pit bike seats with baking soda to fill in holes then covering that with some super glue then drape a fresh peice of donor material or pushed the old material back together and it works great. I freaked out the first time I saw foam smoke like that haha
Quick question, that buchner funnel at the top, it has a frit, that white layer that does the filtering, if im not mistaken from my high school chem classes, some glass frits will have lead in them. How did you verify the safety of using such a filter?
Visually, these are similar to the Dutch style setups that got more or less perfected in Japan and Korea, although obviously they work very differently. The Dutch ones work where you put ice and some water in the top, then have a drip valve to control the flow rate and then in the middle it'll drips to go through the grinds, then through the coils to a collection vessel. They make a really concentrated brew although it takes quite a lot of time and the setups are usually really expensive.
Jonathan your video skills are getting great, the editing and b roll montages are really good. Now for the project, I love it, I will be making one for my wife soon. Thanks for the idea!
Absolutely ridiculously time consuming way of making coffee. Starting this project tomorrow.

Only if you love coffee, I can love you.
Subbed.
This is so cool
there are usually filter inserts available for those buchner funnels that you can use as a coffee filter
Perhaps in the future you can try doing a balancing siphon version instead? I would love to see that!
BRILLIANT use of wood, glass and resin! and YES - Let's make a video on how to make epoxy fun!!!!
Beautiful work! What kind of filter was used?
Correction: The exothermic reaction is the epoxy curing itself, and the bubbly surface and overheating is simply a result of that.
You can get some fun reactions repairing old holed up pit bike seats with baking soda to fill in holes then covering that with some super glue then drape a fresh peice of donor material or pushed the old material back together and it works great. I freaked out the first time I saw foam smoke like that haha
Quick question, that buchner funnel at the top, it has a frit, that white layer that does the filtering, if im not mistaken from my high school chem classes, some glass frits will have lead in them.
How did you verify the safety of using such a filter?
I like how you sorta sound like Hank!
I like the blue one
Visually, these are similar to the Dutch style setups that got more or less perfected in Japan and Korea, although obviously they work very differently.
The Dutch ones work where you put ice and some water in the top, then have a drip valve to control the flow rate and then in the middle it'll drips to go through the grinds, then through the coils to a collection vessel. They make a really concentrated brew although it takes quite a lot of time and the setups are usually really expensive.
Jonathan your video skills are getting great, the editing and b roll montages are really good. Now for the project, I love it, I will be making one for my wife soon. Thanks for the idea!
With the lighter wood rack, why did you not support the coil as you did with the darker wood unit? Nice science project for school.
Good man you are using coffee from my country Costa Rica one of the best in the world.
I've been to Costa Rica. It's gorgeous!
@@katzmosestools Thats good man come whenever you want , you are always welcome.
