How to Make Giant Bubbles w/Guar Gum

I decided for this video I would experiment with a Guar Gum based Giant Bubble recipe after many requests over the last year. It seems to work very well! On par at least with the J-Lube based recipe that I used in this video: • How to Make Giant Bubbles That is also the video to watch if you would like to learn how to make the giant bubble nets.
The best dish soap for bubbles is up for debate, but generally Dawn Platinum Power Clean is seen as one of the best. I also like Dawn's hypoalergenic dish soap which seems to work nearly as well and can be easier to find in stores. Anything labeled as a concentrate of '2x' is typically not very good.
Giant bubbles will work best in high humidity and in cool air, so mornings and late afternoons will give the best results. The middle of the night can also give great results, and the colors created in the bubbles by artificial lights are quite interesting as can be seen in this video: • Giant Soap Bubbles at ...
For more information on making giant bubbles the soap bubble wiki is a great resource: soapbubble.wikia.com/wiki/Soap...

tried the first recipe it worked pretty well tried the guar gum recipe it was ok but seemed to work better when I mixed the two batches. just made the original recipe and added two teaspoons of guar gum a little more (2 oz) of soap and tripled the baking powder..... it's 10:43 pm trying not to go outside and see how it works. either way this was a blast.

I’m in San Diego using your recipe with Seventh Generation dish soap, j-lube & baking power though I increased the baking powder another tablespoon to 4. On the beach when the winds were about 3-5 mph, the bubbles went often about 1/2 to 3/4 mile before bursting!!! Very impressive! I’m trying to determine the perfect amount of wind… seems anything above 8kts is too much!

I found that if you sift the guar gum with a wire strainer into the dish soap a little at a time while stirring it, it will mix in much better and much faster than if you just dump it all in at once.

Hi, have been creating giant bubbles for a couple of years. Love them! Recently had a major set back - first failure!!! We have had a heat wave in UK, with temperatures up to 30C/86F. Some big (not giant) bubbles formed on the strings, then instantly popped. I use Fairy Platinum liquid, J-Lube, baking powder & water (no dragon spit!). PLEASE ADVISE. Thanks.

Hey NightHawkInLight, can you make another smelters that can melt steel, that would be very helpful!

@sebbes333 4 жыл бұрын

*@NightHawkInLight* Maybe you can add some kind of heating just in front of the bubble-ropes, so the air in the bubbles are slightly hotter & makes them rise up, instead of popping on a grass straw. Maybe like a thin copper coil that's short-circuit to a battery? ( *But first* research any explosion risks by short-circuiting the battery type you will be using ).

Any tips for doing this in a hot, dry climate? I'd love to do this at the summer camp in the CA Sierra mountains that I volunteer at, but I get the feeling the low humidity will make it tough.

@Nighthawkinlight 9 жыл бұрын

Ryan Lemburg Smaller bubbles will stand a better chance so make the loops smaller than mine. Middle of the night or early morning will also be the highest humidity.
