    Easily the best video of the three from the new studio. It had the banter and interaction that was missing from the battle on Monday, and it had the chilled, relaxed vibe that was completely absent from Wednesday's audience video. Sure the lighting still feels cold and weird, and the sound isn't perfect, but it felt a lot more like a Sorted video than the other two.

    So, as an ex-butcher in the states, we call that tenderizer a cuber. You run your, frankly, undesirable cuts through the machine three times, and it comes out as a cube steak, which is pretty ok for steak sandwiches. The pro machines dont run fast at all. And yes, the pro version is a nightmare to clean, to the point that the first thing a health inspector checks in a cutting room is the cuber, a sure sign that they are notoriously hard to clean.

      ​@tomhorsley6566 steam cleaning will just coagulate any tiny meat scraps inside the roller and not necessarily flush them out. I'd soak it in a fairly strong alkali (dish washing powder or washing soda) which should soften/dissolve particles and make them easier to flush out of corners

  • @alexbanks9510
    @alexbanks9510 Месяц назад +280

    6:49 Jamie is 100% right here. We didn't need a test between tenderised and untenderised because you already know the answer to that. You need a test between two different methods of tenderising to see which is best (stand mix vs hammer vs stabber etc.)

    • @1ifemare
      @1ifemare Месяц назад +11

      What was being evaluated was (1) if it does tenderize the meat and (2) if it does it efficiently. It's clearly faster than hammering (even including the time to take out your stand mixer and assemble it), so the only remaining thing to test is the difference in cooking. Comparing it to another tenderized cut would defeat the purpose, assuming you could even detect a difference. Besides, that was something Ebbers pointed out mid-shooting after all the prep and production for this test was already in front of them.

    Hello boys. I really enjoy your episodes especially the gadgets. I ask that maybe you could include how easy or hard it is to clean each gadget. I think that is a very important issue. Also, how well made the gadget is. Is it plastic or metal or do you think it will break in a few months. Could you include as well the food safety aspect of the material that the gadget is made from and also ergonomics. Thanks for creating and continuing to make great educational episodes. I am 72 and know zero about cooking, baking etc. and fortunately have a wife who is great in the kitchen but your videos have actually inspired me to try and do something basic. cooking wise.

    With the coffee thing Why not make up coffee and freeze it in an ice cube tray, make your coffee, and pour over coffee ice cubes? That way, you could make up loads of coffee cubes and store them in a container in the freezer. Saves on buying something that has to chill for 12 hours.

    Definitely like the chill vibes this episode. Like that the sorted purple has been kept, but the absence of brick I do feel like changes the vibes of the kitchen. Not necessarily bad, but it feels a little less rustic and cozy, which is what I associated the previous set with. I think for the flexibility of modularization, and a bigger space, some of that coziness was always going to be traded off though. Overall I like the new setup!
    Further feedback (that I don’t see many people commenting so maybe it’s just a me thing) the triangle layout feels a little…odd? It’s hard to describe what feels off about it but it does. Maybe I’m just not used to it and it will grow on me, but it feels a little more obvious that it’s a cut off of a larger space. If the vibes of a single room as opposed to a “set” aren’t high priority then it’s not a problem.
    I think overall this studio feels more polished. Which is good but also trades off some of the cozy vibes of before.
    Still loving the content though. Always nice to get another gadget video

    The Coravin seems not so much like a thing for at home (except for the very serious wine lovers) but a wine bar I like uses it because it allows them to sell quite expensive wines by the glass rather than being forced to sell it by the bottle.

    I've worked in liquor stores and some of the sales reps of the higher end brands have Coravins for traveling and letting stores sample wines. You need to stretch a bottle over 5-20 stores in a county, so it helps with portioning a great deal. They usually don't have many, maybe one or two for the fanciest ones they have, but they're still great. Very niche, but extremely effective.

    If you have the time to put that chiller in the freezer overnight, you have the time to make cold brew coffee which will be cold from the refrigerator in the morning. It feels like it is most useful in the very specific case of wanting both hot and cold coffee simultaneously.

      The problem is that you still have to cool that coffee down quickly to make the ice cubes. My preferred approach is to use a pourover, and have the jug sitting in a bowl of ice water so it chills as each drop filters through. If you've got ready access to ice cubes (either bought bagged, or from an ice cube maker) it's a lot more convenient than having to freeze a special cup for 12 hours.

  • @AuroraBlacke
    @AuroraBlacke Месяц назад +1

    I'd highly suggest trying "flash brewed" coffee (aka Japanese iced coffee). It has all of the lovely flavors and compounds from freshly brewed coffee and doesn't end up diluted. It's especially useful if you're making an entire carafe of iced coffee.
    A very basic explanation is that you make double-strength coffee by halving the amount of water and then brewing the coffee over ice that is, by weight, equal to the amount of water you used to brew the coffee (if you're using a French press or similar, you'd add the ice immediately after it's done).
    The melting ice chills the coffee rapidly, preserving its flavor profile, which is something you wouldn't be able to achieve by letting the coffee cool down for an extended period before freezing it in bags or cubes (oxidization is mostly to blame for that).
    The HyperChiller seems like an attempt to do the same thing, just with regular strength coffee and an extra gadget that you have to either leave in the freezer or remember to freeze the night before. Not bad if you can make several cups with it, but less so if you have to freeze it again for a long time after a single use.

    18:10 A "cork taste" is not directly related to cork itself. A "cork taint" is created by Tetrachloroanisole (TCA). It originates from natural molds reacting with chlorinated cleaning agents, pesticides, or wood preservatives in the winery.
    Cork getting in contact with the wine is not making it "cork". If so, all wines would get a "cork taint" because all wines get in contact with cork on the bottom surface of the cork. One of the reasons why cork is used to close a bottle is that it's safe for the wine to be in contact with it over decades.
    I once was at a wine tasting at a winery and the winemaker showed us a barrel with a "cork taint". This wine never had any contact with cork.

      That answer, to a question that explicitly said touching the cork would make the wine corked, but just replying it won't happen because the cork won't touch the wine... That gives a strong impression to anyone not already knowing it, that touching a cork is indeed corking.
      At that point giving a brief explanation, or even just saying that touching cork isn't corking, would have been a lot more useful to everyone than saying the cork won't touch the wine. Both cover the concern of whether the wine will get corked, but one has a lot more info and the other is misleading (and focuses on something irrelevant to the actual corking concern).

    I work in the wine industry in California. I have been in it for over 15 years. Coravin makes a few different styles of the device. What i can tell you from multiple years of experience is that as long as over 75% of the wine remains in the bottle that has been sampled the cork will seal and the wine will hold for as long as you want. After 75% even with the Argon seal on from the mechanism there tends to be a potential for oxidization especially stored on its side, for liquid to hit the cork and allow it to seal and do its job. If yo are a collector well worth the price of the device and Argon cylinders. If you are not a serious collector, work in a place that runs library bottles, have a giant cellar...etc., there is no reason to pay the price. Lastly, drink what you like, when you like. Don't worry about age of wine unless you want to.
