A quick search on amazon explains that these are used for brewing beer and generally used to replace the sugar fermenting process and add some fizz to the brewed beer. Also took about 30 seconds on the amazon questions to see they usually are left for "atleast 3 weeks" I know nothing about this process but it took me about 2 minutes to find out this information...
someone asked if he could make sodas with the tablets and that was the answer : "I'm afraid not. These are nothing but sugar drops, designed to be dropped into a bottle of beer that contains active yeast and capped. The yeast eats the sugar, which produces CO2 to carbonate the beer. There must be live yeast present in the beverage, and it must be be tightly capped so the CO2 is forced into solution. "
Alfie have you heard of a Soda Stream? It's a machine that carbonates stuff instantly. We had one growing up and we used to put cordial in it and have fizzy cordial. Or orange juice. You just press a button and it's done. I don't know if you can get them in the U.K. but you used to be able to buy them from shops in Australia.
Alfie, I've been having a rough time trying to find a job after university recently, but the positivity you have in your videos is absolutely inspiring and contagious. Even through all the rejection emails, I kept trying and I've finally landed one next week :) To anyone else reading this: NEVER GIVE UP, ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE
Me and my brother play this game called find zoella which is where you go to a shop look at the magazines and the first one to find zoella on the front cover of a magazine wins
Case anyone is curious the reason it didn't work is because the carbonation, I presume essentially just sugar tablets, are meant to react to the active live yeast in beer. It has to do with the fermentation process. Live yeast consumes the sugar, which produces CO2 to carbonate the beer. Milk and smoothies also contain microbes that probably reacted to the tablet which is why a slight fizz was felt. I would be much more concerned if it did work as it would mean the drinks are contaminated with something. Much love for the video.
Hey Alfie just came back from an amazing school trip to China for 10 days so I'm currently sat here catching up on all of RUclips starting with your vlogs ;)
i think that would be one of the cool parts of being a youtuber, getting random packages of cool stuff!! Also side note Alfie literally really does do everything he says and never really puts it off he always finds a way to make it happen!
The main reason this didn't work was that Alfie used too many block of sodium carbonate. Basically Sodium Carbonate when dissolved releases carbon dioxide which when in water can form carbonic acid which makes drinks fizzy. However having too much carbonic acid would actually make the drink very sour and could potentially curdle milk. I think first try dissolving it in some water and test the right amounts till you actually get something fizzy the use different juices and liquids.
It's about having sex so much it hurts, that's why she's walking side to side. It says "and boy, you got me walking side to side". Look up the lyrics, you'll understand. lol.
A www I loved the ending where Joe was just playing around with the ginnie pigs it was so cute and also Alfie miming to side to side in the car was just everything ❤️
Alfie my dad made homemade beer! He had to leave the tightly secured bottles of beer for about 6months in room temp environments. When we opened the beer after 6 months the beer was fizzy according to my dad! But we only put half a capsule in each bottle! Sorry Alfie but I'm pretty sure they were only designed for beer making 😂 You should do more of these videos though they are fun to watch! X
those drops arent meant for anything other than beer because the yeast in beer feeds off of the sugar in the tablets and creates CO2 which makes it fizzy.
DIY TURN ANY DRINK FIZZY...FAIL
PointlessBlog love you Alfie 💗
PointlessBlog I love your videos!

P.s next time Alfie,just add soda water 😂👍🏻
When Alfie got in the car he was moaning that it was cold 💕 and then he said to put the air con on 😂😂
an air con is short for an air conditioner, meaning it conditions the air...... to be cold.... OR HOT..........???
Its because in the us we just say air conditioning for cold and heat for hot or at least most Americans I know do
ITS FREEZING IN HER "get the aircon on"😂
Here
Tori Daniella Aird yes as in the heater? Dont know why thats funny
Renee Barclay lol
Yeah same I didn't get that Tori 😂 air con makes you cold?!
air conditioning can be cold and hot maybe where you live you only use the cold temperature

You should make a 'Can you waffle it?' video and just waffle normal food and so on haha! Love your videos
would the tablets not react with yeast in the beer or something, making it produce CO2? Or is that not how it works?
Yup, they react with the yeast. Alfie should've researched how the carbonation drops actually do the carbonating first.
Haha don't worry Alfie. That voice crack has happened to us guys
at least once before
Ur soooo cool Alfie alway believe in yourself ur amazing 😂😍👌
I'm so glad Joe was giving the Guinea pigs, some attention... They never get a mention now . Nala gets all the attention :(
It was my birthday yesterday!! 21st October so happy theres a blog. Thanks Alfie!! Xx

I swear every youtuber I watch has advertised the new best fiends game today.

Alfie dancing and singing to the car radio is my religion... And it helps we have the same taste in music 🙌🏻
Who else loves his DIY lately?
what's with the bedside ketchup XD
Funny how these "challenges" just serve to help your channel. Why do we always have to have challenges? Why can't we just watch and enjoy?
Joy MacPherson it's called community engagement and creating an interaction between vlogger and viewer
Alfie : Gooooooo * Voice cracks* "Woah, that was embarrassing, let's pretend that never happened."
Me: *Replays six times*
Joe talking to the guinea pigs is the cuttest thing ever. 💗
Anyone else fart in their drinks to make them fizzy?.. No just me... I mean. phhh! Yeah I do it the way alfie does it too...

beer has yeast, yeast probably activates the tablets or something, try a fizzy making machine.
p.s you a zoe make the best couple! so cute cute!
Is it just me or do best fiends sponsor like every single video 🙄😂
Alfie clearly doesn't get what Side to Side is about. LOL.
did he say rocking side to side??? haha! defo not the right lyrics
Yeah! lol. Maybe he thinks it's some innocent pop song? XD.
I dont get it either tbh, what is it about anyway?lol
It's about having sex so much it hurts, that's why she's walking side to side. It says "and boy, you got me walking side to side". Look up the lyrics, you'll understand. lol.
I have a soda stream I recommend you get one!
A www I loved the ending where Joe was just playing around with the ginnie pigs it was so cute and also Alfie miming to side to side in the car was just everything ❤️
If you read this , have a good day/night ❤️❤️
If you want to carbonate something buy a soda stream, pop your liquid in and carbonate it that way!

Alfie you should just get a carbonation machine thingie! i think it's called a sodastream. it makes normal drinks fizzy. it actually works.
Joe talks to guinea pig is the cutest thing ever
Hi random person scrolling through the comments

try again but leave it overnight so they can disolve properly
Kat B yeah as he left the game playing overnight
those drops arent meant for anything other than beer because the yeast in beer feeds off of the sugar in the tablets and creates CO2 which makes it fizzy.
+Tulip Paddle - exactly right. I wonder sometimes if Alfie could be bothered to read the instructions on some of the stuff that he buys.
When will you start sims 4 again
I'm loving these DIY videos Alfie 😂👍😊
"ow he bit me" lmao joe in the background 😂
Skip to 5:02 to skip the AD for the best fiends forever .
