A very scientific experiment to test how much carbon dioxide cheap white wine can absorb. Basically turbo-champagne for technical people.
Must remember to check that settings haven't reset to defaults next time..... One of the perils of using Android devices to record my videos is that apps can reset to defaults randomly during intense updates, which is why the fizzy moments when I held the glass to the microphone were ignored completely.
Tough decision - do I get another bottle of wine and re-do the video (tempting, mainly because - more wine). Or do I just accept fate and release it as is.....
I specifically avoid using intrusive mid-run video adverts, which means I don't earn as much from my content as other YouTubers.

Is time for some alcoholic science you see in the past. I have taken a a soda stream and i've put in inappropriate liquids like white wine and turned into blue collar trash champagne but i was taken by surprise at the sheer amount of carbon dioxide it seemed to dissolve into it and so i thought it'd be good to do an experiment. So i filled this bottle with water. It's not currently filled with water it's currently filled with wine shin and blue wine.

But i filled it with water up to 500 milliliters. Which was 583. Grams. Uh given the weight of the plastic bottle and the 500 grams of water and after carbonation up to the point this pressure release gave three fart noises.

It had added three grams of carb dioxide into the water. Which is six grams per liter. Now. I have my shin and brown.

And i have put it into this bottle. I've weighed it so it's the exact same quantity and now i'm going to put it into the soda stream and i am going to carbonate the wine and we'll see how much weight goes into it in carbon dioxide are you ready let's go see by this time the water would have finished carbonating. The wine has not finished carbonating and it's still not finished carbonating this is a lot of carbon dioxide just going into this wine. I should mention that sodastream doesn't normally recommend the carbonation of anything other than water in case.

It clogs up the safety valve and explodes. I feel i should mention that and it's still it's that's the first vent second vents third vent okay so i'm gonna release the pressure now. Which is going to possibly take a while it depends it forms up or not and this would be a really good time to go down into the comments and make a guess at how much carbon dioxide this is absorbed in grams it's a lot i know that it really does have a potent effect on me. When i drink it the pressure has almost released the experiment is almost complete and then i get to drink it.

Which is a bad thing. Because it will give me terrible sleep after this. It's ready here we go so it was 583. Grams.

Before we started the weight is now have you made your guess 589 grams 589. Which means it's taken twice as much carb dioxide as water um which is about 12 grams per liter of carbon dioxide and that means it's extremely oh you can hear it super fizzy so fizzy that it just comes straight out as soon as it goes into the glass. And you can't drink it straight from the bottle or it just explodes in your mouth. It's super fizzy.

It's better than champagne. Quite frankly. But don't tell the french that that is so good but so much carbon dioxide that can be good for you but who cares it has a potent effect so the answer is that wine can absorb twice as much carbon dioxide as just chilled water this was chilled wine by the way chewed water chilled wine sodastream supercarbon dioxide carbonation.

    I feel this homemade sparkling wine should be named Shampagne.

    Great to see you, Clive! Thanks for sharing!

    I just use a CO2 tank that you can get for beer kegs and bought a fitting for a liter (litre) plastic bottle and a regulator. Works great.

    Nothing worse than having it unexpectedly exploding in your mouth.

    So you made Sham-pagne…..

    I think it's the sugars in the wine that absorb the CO2.
    Try sugary water?

    Loving the ZZ Top look.

    Why would.. co2 be bad for you? Your just gonna burp it out.

    that's a really bad hat Clive!

    BigClive – I want to send a "device" to you to disassemble. Can I, and where to?
