If you’re going to put that much caffeine to make the “redder bull” you need to get better scales. Good video.

That's about enough caffeine to kill 2 adult men, lol. 3000mg in a drink has actually happened before. An Australian energy drink company screwed up their math and a bartender died when she drank one of the first cans from that batch.

I gotta mention, you can be a bit more aggressive with the sep funnel. It does form an emulsion if it was done too vigorously, but if the layers doesn't come in contact with each other with the highest surface area possible, the yield will be decreased significantly. I'm talking from experience.

Well done extraction!👍 Entertaining presentation, that's exactly my kind of humour. 😆 Very appropriate safety precautions and warnings. It's a pleasure to watch such planful work and the attention you pay on each step (I especially loved it how gently you washed the tiny filter residue). Three little hints: - An electric grinder isn't very expensive, but facilitates shredding immensely. - Foodsafe substances can be dried very well in the kitchen oven. - Coffein sublimates rather than it melts. I guess it just gave off remaining moisture here.

The caffeine extraction is one of the best extractions I've ever made btw: very nice video and I'm Polish too

Awesome that you drank it! Confidence in your chemistry! I remember my lab partner and I in organic chemistry saw a whole jar of powdered caffeine on one of the shelves in the lab and so we joked about snorting some. The teacher overheard us and laughed with us but told us that it probably wasn't pure enough to safely snort. lmao Had it not been one of our earlier classes during our year of organic chemistry, I probably would have joked back at the teacher that maybe we should run an extra experiment and run a few distillations to sufficiently purify the caffeine. lol Bet it would have really hurt if we seriously tried to snort it though. Ouch!

Infra-red bull

Your Polish coffee tree is most efficient! It even bags the coffee seeds for you!

@13:14 You managed to kill the snail... The Snail !!! (look it up , its a meme)

Rip snail 🐌 😢

This channel is so underrated

I love this. You're like a middle ground between NileRed and Explosions&Fire. Keep up the good(?) work.

Love that spot-washing of the caffeine crystals in the vacuum filter, and your ribbing of Nigel, both executed perfectly.

Keep making videos like this and you'll be rich enough to buy some big ol beakers in no time :)

3g of coffeine? heart palpitations here we come :D

add any kind of powder to a drink with carbonated water will start foaming because powder has a big surface area there is a kids experiment called dancing raisins were the raisins are drop in to soda-pop the rinkles collect bubble and flote to the top they pop it sinks down and starts over

F in chat for that snail.

I wonder how difficult it would be to mass produce caffeine chemically to use as a pesticide.

19:40 my unintelligent self wouldve started drinking the foam so it doesn't overflow 💀

10:50 that ethanol looks a lot lower than the first experiment 🥴 that little beaker washing the crystals = half a bottle Yup seems right to me 👍

The ślimak in the beaker was actually a slug, not a snail, as it has no shell

Good video 🐌

How funny would it have been if that snail started flying

It has at least 100% of the LD 50 in every can, guaranteed.

wallace hammering along with you had me in tears

"Isn't that beautiful?" To me it looks like a combination of lard, fiberglass and cotton balls.

Just found your channel, instantly subscribed and binged all your videos! Much love!

This is a great chemistry channel, you deserve more subscribers (but all I can offer is one more)

forbidden cotton candy

Beautiful !!!

I found caffeine pills that are just pure caffeine in gelcaps. This is easier to measure out small quantities than bulk powder, as each capsule is 200mg. That makes it easy to use when making a batch of my own drink recipes.

Nice one! Greetings from Germany!

17:46 Forbidden cotton candy...

After two videos, this being my third, I am completely obsessed ❤

Caffeine tolerance level: Narcolepsy

Nice video, but one thing.. you should probably get a glass plate or something to rest your equipment on top of... DCM and other solvents, even Acetone could just destroy the finish on the lovely wooden floorboard you got there

I thought I'll have smth like a nilered video but no, I realized it when you played music in the beginning, I don't remember I ever heard music in nilered

А не проще ли получить кофеин возгонкой с магнием?. ( Без воды, жидкостей и экстракции)

If you drank that ... seek medical help . ALSO: you could have extracted the caffiene in the 95% ethanol by itself .. you didnt need to mess with the DCM at all.

I have heard that in industry caffeine could be extracted from tea production waste (tea dust). Frugal yield of your method suggests the existence of more efficient techniques. Am i wrong?

That chloroform clip was funny

Infrared Bull?

6 hours = 5 Lab minutes 😂👏

Any alkaloids can be extracted using this method though the alkaloid may be weak acid or weak base? BTW nice "The redder bull"😂

13:37 Has it really to be a separate step? Why not ad a good amount of spirit and heat the mix to 45C until boiling stops? Then just add more spirit, if necessary.

when you were pounding those tablets in a bag, with a hammer. I'm thinking. Seems that that would be the perfect use for my coffee grinder. It grinds down to 00, for espresso . It would probably still benefit by going over to the (mortar, pestle). But it would be a really good first step.

Amazing job well done how are you love your work

twice in my life I took 1600 Mg of caffeine. You do NOT want to consume 3 grams in one sitting. It will not be fun.

6 caffeine pills in one drink!

19Minutes: Dude, it was nice to knowing you....hahhaha

This is what the F1 racing team use to fuel it's cars. Also makes a good jet fuel for the F22

I have the exact same scale you have. 😮

Yeah you can buy 5 g of pure caffeine crazy without a good scale u can easily overdose. U need a good scale that can measure accurately 50 to 100 mg. 1 g of caffeine could kill.

What concentration of dichloromethane and sodium carbonate should i use?

yo that's the track dankpods uses

Panera lemonade recipe

And I thought the Panera Bread Charged Lemonade had a lot of caffeine

Coffee plant became coffee post

Where can I get your Redder Bull??? I am in EU

If you drink this you will be able to taste music and hear colours

caffeine isn't "quite addictive" per se; it's not completely non-addictive, but its risk is fairly low compared to alcohol and nicotine, the other two most common legal recreational psychoactive substances.

If that pan is non-stick you gave yourself cancer. GG

Ethanol is toxic. Me watching this video video: 🥃 🗿

I overdosed caffeine accidentally once (I did something like 1.5-2g) (i am not a heavy caffeine user... and the pills had more than I expected and I didn't check), it was one of the worst experiences of my life, easily. And I have overdosed on other things when I had more problems in my life, (never lethal LD-50 overdose amounts, but severe overdoses nonetheless, that should have gone to the ER). It was the worst by far, I truly felt like I was dying, because I guess I was. Funny how American healthcare works where I didn't even go to the hospital or ER bc I would rather die than have the debt lmao hey! we have the same brand of kitchen pans!

Not even snails are safe in the polish hood

3000 mg! Are you nuts!

Dude could you please do the experiments I cannot find any answers to? Can you dissolve sugar in salt-saturated + water solution? What happens if you throw salt through a stream of salt-saturated +water solution? Will it be dry after leaving the stream?

caffeine

you may wanna put the mic a little closer to your mouth and maybe try to talk a litlle slower. especially in the beginning of the video it was little hard to understand you. it might help if you used some kind of mic-passthrough so you can here yourself talk. great video

An animal commited suicide in your beaker. Welcome to the KZfaq Chemistry Club! 😂

Did you use caffeine before this video?

if you extract it from tea you are going to get a lot of theobromine contamination

Couldn't you just throw the pills in water filter out the cellulose and then boil off the water?

"Ethanol is toxic" Ethanol has a higher LD50 than caffeine.

poor snail...

OMG POLSKA

polish chemistry

There isn't an "x" in "espresso"

i wish red bull came to this comment section

I like your accent, where are you from?

that was a homeless snail aka a slug

Amateur is apt for this channel. But I love to see the process of growth/discovery/experimentation. Even though I could perform this 100x better I still enjoyed watching lol.

Ohh boy, do i see a cross over episode with ChubbyEmu in the near future?! "A amateur chemist put 3 grams of caffeine into a redbull, this is what happened to his heart"kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qd-cpK1hs6u6eqs.html

YOU DRANK THAT????

nice but where do u buy chloroform? lol

Ahoj

Such a shame I can’t drink this bc it’s not edible

I let my digestive tract extract my caffeine. Most efficient method, usually 100% yield. ... jokes aside, unironically get a coffee grinder.

899th like, nice

Lol... That's fucked up man

Do not put it out there, on thumbnails or otherwise, that 3.0 grams of caffeine is acceptable anywhere, or anyhow. Caffeine is awful at doses much above 100 mg--pure anxiety and unpleasantness--no euphoria--only vile, upset and yuck.

3000mg of caffeine is like LD99

Do you have discord? I would like to chat with you
