In this episode - Beverage Hacks.
Here's a great hack to get more juice out of your citrus fruits.
Usually people would juice their oranges like this -
so cut it in half,
and then when you juice it,
you get about this much juice.
You see that's one side done.
I thought that was a squashed bug in my hand.
I nearly flipped out.
Oh...
Okay. It is not a bug.
And juice this one out now.
Trying to get all the juice out,
think that's done.
So I've juiced this one in the way that people usually cut oranges.
So now I'm going to teach you how to cut it the correct way
to get more juice out of your fruit.
I'm gonna let the "eye" face you guys
and then I'm going to cut a third off.
Urgh. This is the world's most bluntest knife.
And then I'm going to flip it around,
cut again
and again
and then lastly -
now I'm going to juice all these pieces into this glass.
This is very messy.
There is juice...
...everywhere.
I'm turning orange.
And there you have it.
This is the one that I juiced the wrong way
and this is the juice that I juiced the correct way.
There is quite a difference,
as you can see.
And there you go! You can get more juice from your fruit.
So say you've got a can of soda
and it's been knocking around in your bag
or your car or wherever
and the gas is about to make it explode.
So I have a can with me,
I'm going to shake it up.
Ooh that's tight.
That is tight, my friend.
All you need to do is you need to tap the top,
you need to tap the sides,
so that the bubbles would break
and it would cause it to... not be so explosive.
I think you should do this with every can anyway?
Just in case.
You don't know, what happens...
And...
Boom.
You can also do this with a bottle.
I'm going to shake it up.
Now I'm going to tap,
the bubbles' going down.
And then you just... very carefully,
open up the bottle.
Done deal.
Voila, my friends.
So I'm going to show you how to make a
really easy cold brew coffee at home.
If you've never tried cold brew coffee at all,
the flavour is... freaking amazing.
First of all, it is less acidic.
It is a lot more smoother to drink
and it doesn't leave that awful coffee aftertaste in your mouth.
So it is actually really, really good.
So right here with me,
I have my Phuc Long coffee.
P-H-U-C, parents.
P-H-U-C.
It is a very famous Vietnamese coffee brand called Phuc Long.
They might pronounce it a little differently
but I'm Australian,
so we'd say that's Phuc Long, mate.
They've got heaps of stores everywhere.
I'm going to get my Phuc Long coffee
and then I'm going to pour it in my Mason jar.
Just like this.
So now that I've got my Phuc Long coffee grounds in my Mason jar,
I'm just going to add water now.
You want to do maybe 1:6?
This all depends on how strong you like your coffee.
Fill it up to the top.
Give it a good stir,
close your lid,
put it in the fridge for 24 hours.
Just let it sit.
Okay. Now I've prepared one earlier
and it is right here.
Still not done yet yeah?
Now it's time to filter the coffee.
You can use anything that would filter out the coffee grounds,
I'm using organza because it's a lot tighter, the holes.
You need a rubber band,
you need to get another container
that all this coffee would fit into.
Put the organza over the top
then you're going to pour this into there.
Because all the goodness is going to come out into this container,
and all the filthy coffee grinds... grounds...
Coffee bits... are going to be stuck in the organza.
Let's hope that I don't spill this.
I knew I was going to spill it everywhere.
So now I've got my cold brew coffee all ready to go,
so I'm just going to pour it over some ice,
and I'm going to add my sugar and milk.
And now I'm going to give it a shot!
See how good this Phuc Long coffee is.
Doesn't that look cool?
Okay now just stir it.
Oh it looks really good.
Good!
Woah it's damn nice.
It's very smooth going down,
it's almost like when you go to a proper professional coffee shop?
It tastes like that.
So with the leftover coffee,
you can put it back in the fridge,
refrigerate it and then bring it out whenever you want to drink it.
Obviously you don't want to leave it too long,
I don't know what the expiry date is.
That one I don't know, you go and google lah.
So what I have in front of me is a very full cup of coffee, okay?
Now, I've just learnt this one.
Apparently, when you're walking with a full cup of coffee,
when you're stirring it, it stops it from spilling everywhere.
Okay so now I'm going to test it, without stirring.
Let's go.
Shoot.
So when I'm walking, the coffee is swaying back and forth like this
and it's almost tipping over.
So now we'll try with me stirring... shit.
Oh hey, it's a lot easier to walk with.
Look at that!
When I'm not stirring it,
the coffee moves back and forth like this
and when I'm stirring it when I'm walking,
it spins in circles so it doesn't flow over so easily.
Mum, are you listening?
This is so much easier.
So you're outside and you have a bottle of drink with you
and you want to use a straw
but you're sick and tired of the straw falling inside the bottle.
Here's a really cool solution.
Why not try bending the straw over the neck of the bottle,
put the lid on
and that way, your straw is always there.
So basically you just got to kiap the straw...
It's so bad.
Kiap it with the bottle cap.
This t-shirt could come in handy
with a lot of things actually.
This one is for all you soda drinkers out there.
Okay so sometimes you get a bit annoyed,
when the straw keeps floating up
and kind of ends up floating out like this.
So to prevent this from happening,
just pull the tab over,
put the straw inside the hole of the tab
and there you go!
The tab would hold it in place.
Voila!
So this one is really good for all of you wine drinkers out there
that don't know much about wine.
All you have to do is download an app called Vivino.
It has a lot of information about wines
but I find the most useful thing about this app
is when you push the camera button,
you get to take a picture of your wine.
Just take a picture of the label
and then this pops up -
And it gives a rating
and all the information about where the wine comes from.
It also shows you reviews
and prices as well, which is great
because if you go to a supermarket
or if you go to some winery or whatever,
and they're saying,
oh this bottle of wine cost $352
and you're thinking,
Hmm. I don't even know if it's good or not.
Use this app! Then you can see if it's good
and you can see if you're paying the right amount!
Win-win!
It's like a wine friend in your pocket.
Very, very handy for someone that doesn't know anything about wine.
That would be me.
Say you spilled some wine on a top,
I'm going to use a white top so you guys can see a lot easier
of how to remove a stain.
So I've got myself some red wine right here.
So I'm going to spill it on my top.
So once you've stained your top,
you do have to act fast
because once it sets in,
it's very hard to remove.
So the next thing you want to do
is you want to pour the vinegar over the stain
just like this.
You can see it all dripping away slowly.
Grab some liquid detergent and rub it on the stain,
give it a good rub
and now I'm just going to rinse it
like this.
So now I've rubbed off the first layer of the wine,
looks like this now.
It's a bit lighter but I'm still not done yet.
Next step is to pour the vinegar again,
but this time you're going to soak it in with hot water as well.
You can see it all kind of disappearing now.
It smells so vinegary.
So you just leave it just like that
until the stain lifts off.
You can leave it for about an hour,
it really depends on what kind of stain you have.
Most of it is already gone, as you can see.
Almost there.
So it's been about an hour
and the t-shirt is pretty much ready.
Now keep in mind, people, that this is a white t-shirt.
So it's not going to go completely.
I'd admit it.
Here is the result.
So this is where the stain is,
you can see it still slightly there.
So this hack is really good for light-coloured -
Shut up.
So this hack is really good for light-coloured clothes
that you can't bleach.
So if the stain is really bad
and you still want it to come out,
then I recommend buying a stain remover,
and if that doesn't work,
then maybe just get a new t-shirt!
Right?
Yes.
So that's it for this episode.
