Just for clarification, 'Ersatz' does NOT mean fake. It mean 'Replacement'. So it's replacement coffee and a replacement M10, as they didn't have enough real ones to use.
Or the BC class “Ersatz Yorck class” of 1916, comprising of SMS Ersatz Yorck, SMS Ersatz Gneisenau and SMS Ersatz Scharnhorst. The first one was to replace the CA Yorck (lost to mines in 1914, building began but never was finished) the latter two as replacements for the CAs of their names lost in the Battle of the Falkland Islands, again in 1914. (They were ordered but construction never started, at that point in the war submarines were more important.) Here it means a straight replacement, better and stronger … With ersatz goods the implication s a lesser quality, usually because you have to make do somehow under extenuating circumstances, and it is still better than nothing. Also see the “coffee” served in the age of sail in British warships.
@@advorak8529 It wasn't just the Ersatz Yorcks - the Imperial German Navy made a habit of NOT naming capital ships (publicly, at least) until their launching. So ships under construction would frequently go by a "Ersatz [other ship]" moniker. The Austo-Hungarian navy had several "Ersatzes" as well.
There's Ersatzkaffee in Switzerland to this day. It tastes almost the same as coffee but has no caffeine in it. It's made from chicory. My parents called it coffee for kids.
04:45 Jim makes a great ersatz baseball announcer! :D German language lesson: "ersatz" means "substitute", "replacement", "imitation", usually of an inferior quality compared to the original.
No, Ersatz must not be inferior. Ein Ersatz eines bestehenden Artikels ist in den meisten Fällen eine Verbesserung... or in english: the replacement of an existing article is mostly an improvement.
As a Boy Scout meself, congrats Stick for doing the program. As for knots, not everyone was good at them. The favorite saying of one of my assistant scoutmaster's was "if you can't tie knots tie lots of knots". My personal favorite knots were sheepshank, bowline, and alpine butterfly.
As a Eagle Scout myself I was not good at knots I was proficient enough to be able to pass the board of review. But whenever Id go to camp there was always someone that was better at knots then I was lol.
@@ToxicMinecraftV2 I wasn’t that best at knots in my troop, one or two ended up teaching pioneering, but so was pretty solid overall and it was fun when we had knot relays as I was seen as the old fart since there was a weird two or three year age gap between me and the next oldest
In this video; Bo attempts to make warthunder content while stick and Jim follow their silly conversation side quests 😂 This was a hilarious one. Almost forgot that you were playing warthunder for a second 😂
Today on BTG: Bo redevelops an activity centre for the local children, Jim establishes a new presence in the BTG sports franchise and Stickboy treats the crew to some surprising facts about his family tree.
I am sorry but when Bo said "I think the boy scouts should teach enhanced interrogation", I was with jim on that one and was thinking of this scenario that stickboy would have done if it was taught. "Ok sticky boy, scout master travis over there has been talking to some people and we need to find out who he has been talking to. So go grab the rag and bucket of water to get this badge :D!". I don't know why that's all I could think of when bo said that xD. I think bo said it at 15:10 .
You guys out did yourselves in this one! This video was a blast (in more ways than one)! And now if someone offers me Ersatz Coffee with no explanation I know how the knowledge to say "no way man. I want the real stuff!"
Acorns from White Oaks are preferred as they have less tannins and are therefore less bitter. Added chicory gives a more earthy coffee flavor while the roasted acorns have more nutty flavor. Pine nuts are a baking staple and very tasty in hummus, but too oily for an ersatz coffee.
Fun fact; here in Denmark there's one brand of "Ersatz coffee" (in danish "kaffe-erstatning" ) that's still being sold: It's mostly something of a novelty item, you can buy at a handful of museums. (The brand is called "Rich's" in case anyone is wondering: it's made from rye, chicory and sugar beets that's been roasted. According to wikipedia, other stuff was used on occasion, in other brands, including dandelion and corn). I have no idea how it tastes ("not very well" is my best guess..)
You can still purchase ersazt coffee called Melta in Czechia. It became so popular during and after the war that they kept producing it. It's chicory based.
I was in The Australian Air League. I received qualifications in aircraft construction, theory of flight, group dynamics, theory of command, aeroengines, meteorology and aerial navigation. The funny thing is, I have often called upon these skills in various circumstances and have benefited from this education more than school. I actually taught myself to read at the age of three using maths as a link to words. I think maybe I could have foregone school and been no worse off.There is no doubt about it, youth groups (at least in those days) were a sensational education.
in Tunisia, we grind the seeds inside the pinecones and use them to make a special desert, it has really strong and nice flavor, despite being pitch black
I understand that ersatz coffee or Kaffee as it was also known during the worst parts of the war (for Germany) was actually the roasted roots of dandelions. There were many different things roasted and used for this purpose. None of them had caffeine. Dandelions are an excellent plant for food purposes. Everything is edible.
Roasting the seeds found in pinecones may have been an option for the coffee substitute. Women would also use something referred to as "Liquid Stockings", which was basically gravy browning or caramel color that they brushed on their lower legs prior to drawing the seam on with coal or charcoal. Pulped raspberries or chokecherries in coldcream was also used as a substitute for lipstick and blush.
Acorns and grain were also roasted to make a coffee substitute, but the main ersatz was roasted chilies root as according to my people (not me) it’s closer to the taste of coffee. In any case none have caffeine, so the idea it being an ersatz is a very liberal interpretation of what a substitute really is. Also in Italy Italians were making some couplets that when Victor Emmanuel was a simple King, they were drinking tasty coffee, but now he is an Emperor and they are drinking chicorée
In my opinion it's just a better panther. You sacrifice a little bit of movement speed because of all the extra armor but you have extra armor and protection especially on your sides
Historically, the Native Americans, particularly the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois), considered white pine trees the “Tree of Peace.” They drank pine needle tea for centuries to both prevent illness and treat coughs and colds and later introduced the herbal tea to European settlers.
Funny thing is, one of the few ersatz "coffees" out there that actually delivers a decent shot of caffeine is a beverage made from a holly (yaupon), cassina or "black drink". Despite the scientific name, it does NOT cause people to throw up, and can be found drank to this day in parts of the Southern US.
Coffee using _pine cones_ doesn't seem likely (although stranger things have happened). Coffee made from _pine nuts_ however - the seeds of a pine cone - seems more likely to me, especially because people are still making substitute coffee using pine nuts today.
FYI - Boy Scouts don't put badges on their belts, rather Cub Scouts do. Cub Scouts is the younger (under 10 years old) version of Boy Scouts. Regardless, still cool to hear about your belt!
There are 3 NHL teams in California, 2 are legit teams, and one is the failing remnants of a great movie trilogy from the 90s. Of the other two teams, the fans of one are more likely to fight you in the parking lot after the game, and the other will probably (more than likely) drink themselves to sleep after the game.
What tree gives acorns? Are Acorns Edible? And Other Acorn Facts - Woodland Trust the oak tree Acorns are the fruit of the oak tree. They contain the seeds that can grow new oak trees, and falling to the ground is part of the tree's lifecycle - this is how it reproduces. Having reached the ground, the acorns can grow into new oak trees or be carried off to new locations by wildlife.
Replacement coffee was mostly acorns with chicory and beechnuts. Not pinecones. At worsts they also used raw sugar and beets + beet flower later in the war.
if they only bring one old tank back i hope its this one. Honestly one of my biggest war thunder regrets was not getting this tank when it was still in game
Actually, I think ersatz coffee dates back to the war of 1812 at least. I remember reading some hilarious descriptions from captured British naval officers of just how bad it was when they were waiting to be paroled in New York and Boston.
Never heard of Ersatzkaffee made from pinecones, but considering people were basically roasting every other damn thing over here to make replacement beverages for coffee I'd not doubt that they were used at some point.
Ersatz = replacement Ersatz-Kaffee is made from Rye, and you can still buy that stuff today, for example "Caro Landkaffee" And who needs caffeine, if you got Panzerschoki? And btw, there is a pine-needle soft drink out there.. Vostok
Hey *Stick* the etymology of acron is “Oak-corn”, so let’s take a wild guess it’s Oak. Acorns are mostly carb and fat & although acorns can technically be what are often called “beech-nuts” (which are loaded with tannin like tea), but honestly I’m going with oak, because, despite being caffeine-free, if oak acorns are ground and brewed in hot water the drink looks and tastes similar to coffee.
If you could remove one state from the US, which would it be and why?

Wyoming cause it doesnt exist anyway
Idaho, me no no like

Do it for the scout masters and the people who made the recent decisions for the boy scouts, and I'll approve.
it's a valuable skill

The ice in Texas is not only in the arenas. It is also in your pipes during winter.

So Stickboy’s belt is worthless.

Nitpick: Direct translation of "Ersatz" would be "replacement".

Great vid like always!
Glad you enjoyed!
Best video in a while. I LOVE the ranting about everything but the battle :)
I've heard coffee be refered to as a few things but never before "portable dark liquid"
Fair, but it probably was potable on the page.
Makes sense because it dosen't contain caffine, so it would just be a drak liquid
THAT'S WHERE THE "YIPPEE" COMES FROM?!
Great video Bo!
This is definitely the best version of the M10 in the game lol

“Slightly strange video” isn’t that just every TBLF vid ever?
No, Pine Cone Coffee is a brand of real coffee. Maybe Jim got it mixed up with acorn coffee, which is ersatz?
Hmm, lets see now, is it that the beech tree bears acorns and the oak tree bears beechnuts - or is it the other way around?

Acorns are the fruit of the oak tree. They contain the seeds that can grow new oak trees, and falling to the ground is part of the tree's lifecycle - this is how it reproduces. Having reached the ground, the acorns can grow into new oak trees or be carried off to new locations by wildlife.
Pine nuts (extracted from certain pine cones) are a delicacy and used in many different cuisines.
Your Ersatzkaffee doesn't need coffein, if you have Pervitin (Panzerschokolade / tank chocolate)

blasted my monitor with cheerio shrapnel hearing jim call out the T95's Pixar Hips™
Roasted acorns (from oak trees, gentlemen), chicory or barley will do it for that bitter roasted beverage warm feeling.

Hey *Stick* the etymology of acron is “Oak-corn”, so let’s take a wild guess it’s Oak. Acorns are mostly carb and fat & although acorns can technically be what are often called “beech-nuts” (which are loaded with tannin like tea), but honestly I’m going with oak, because, despite being caffeine-free, if oak acorns are ground and brewed in hot water the drink looks and tastes similar to coffee.
I am pretty sure Stickboy was suggesting Zombies would be sent home to their loved ones.
Just a splash of sassafras root really helps the pine cone squeezings
They'd also have gravy for stockings in the UK
In the boy scouts Stick excelled in the Japanese art of knots known as Shibari.
I believe the acorn brew started as a hunter gatherer thing, pre dating coffee. Also, acorns are from oak trees
TIL angling equates to mewing
Depending on the context "Ersatz" actually means "spare" or "replacement".
Southern soldiers used to drink chicory coffee during the civil war but when available they'd trade their tobacco ration for real coffee
Good lord Bo carries a lot of fucking ammo
It is easier in Swedish: Acorns (ek-ollon) are colletect by squirrels (ek-orrar) and grow on oaks (ek).
You can make jam with pine cones. It's okay, but the pine cones themselves in it don't really taste like anything, it's pretty much just edible wood.
I wonder if bostill has the footage from that kv2 encounter im genuinely curious if it was the kv2s over pressure that killed the plane
Oak obviously. You can still buy something like that in Easter Europe.
It's funny that Bo and the gang didn't manage to find the T95
