@@Modernist_Pantry I had Foam Magic fail on me yesterday while trying to make a cocktail foam out of some strawberry shrub syrup I had seasoned with citric and lactic acid. It doesn't taste super acidic. Certainly not like straight lemon or lime juice. I added 2% foam magic and charged my whipping siphon twice. It came out very watery and dissipated almost instantly. Just how acidic is too acidic? How should I troubleshoot? Start by adding some sodium citrate or SHMP?
[4:18] "And the reason why that happens is ...We are Using N2O - Nitrous Oxide to create the foam." Are you certain you are using laughing gas here? and not just Nitrogen gas (N2)? P.S. Please let me know immediately when Modernist Pantry is supplying N2O so that mama can make that "Finer Bubble Structure." 🤣
I love the videos. Thank you for sharing and giving me a resource to learn and purchase!
Thank you!
Are there any liquids Foam Magic won't work with? It's tolerant to alcohol, clearly. Do acidic solutions need to be buffered with eg. SHMP?
Anything too acidic we recommend buffering

Can I bake with Foam Magic? E.g. make a cheese / egg white foam and it becomes like a meringue?
No, it's not intended for that use.
Please tell us the name of that “elixir” that you used.

If you wanted to create a corn foam, would you use milk as the primary liquid? If not, how would you do it?
You can't foam solids so you would have to infuse some kind of stock with the corn milk for corn flavor and then foam that.
What if you use Middle Eastern Yogurt thicker then Greek Yogurt called Labneh, is like spread cheese
It’s has high fat consistency and sodium
You can't foam a yogurt, that would be too thick.

Yes. We are certain it is N2O.
Just discovered this channel and love it. Ps Subscribed 👍
Thank you so much!
Isn’t this NO2 rather N2O? Nitrogen Dioxide.
