Me and Cameron making some ice cream with liquid nitrogen
Liquid Nitrogen boils at 77K (which is about...-196C) which causes rapid freezing
(almost like a frostbite)
So this picture made me feel good when I used wikipedia to get the boiling point
there was a little picture box on the side with a caption which read
"Liquid Nitrogen may be used to prepare homemade ice cream, as these MIT students are doing"
lol.
ftw
I guess Bellevue College is less than or equal to MIT.
We accidentally dumped the WHOLE bag of sugar in there so...
it was wayyyyyy to sweet.
Hi Rika,
ReplyDeleteThis is Khushbu Merchant. I am a student of chemistry & I am studying Liquid Nitrogen as part of thesis of my final year assignment, wherein I am understanding:
1. Role of liquid nitrogen usage in refrigeration
2. Role of liquid nitrogen in food industry
While browsing internet I have come across the concept of making instant ice-cream with liquid nitrogen & also, I have learnt that you have done an experiment of making ice-cream using liquid nitrogen. (http://liccamoto.blogspot.in/2010/11/me-and-cameron-making-some-ice-cream.html)
So, I am trying to understand:
1. Advantages & disadvantages of liquid nitrogen in making ice cream
2. Hazards of liquid nitrogen ice cream consumption on human
I would be great full if you could help me out with the above information.
I look forward for your positive response.
