In the ongoing saga of designing siphons for making layered drinks, we have previously presented the Mk II mini siphon for making two-layer shots, which works quite well. However, the nature of the self-starting siphon means that the volume of each pour is fixed.
But what if there were a way to modify the volume of the pour so a three-layer shot could be made?
When recipe calls for a tablespoon of “kosher salt” that seems like a simple instruction, right?
There are a number of reasons you might want to use non-chicken eggs in cooking (allergies, taste preferences, availability), so in our first installment on examining the use of non-chicken eggs, we will quantify some of the differences between chicken, duck, and goose eggs.
Breasts come in a wide variety of sizes, and due to their shape, are difficult to accurately measure to determine their actual sizes. In this study we will use Archimedes’ Principle, which uses the displacement of water, to measure the sizes of both natural breasts and augmented breasts.
