Whipped cream dispensers use nitrous oxide as a whipping agent. This gas is released when a sharp pin is poked into the foil covering of the charger. This gas then stirs up the cream and emulsifies the cream for an airy, fluffy texture. The chargers can be purchased separately, and some have several uses. You can use them to make desserts or infuse alcoholic drinks with nitrous oxide.
Infusing alcoholic beverages with nitrous oxide
If you are looking for a fun way to infuse alcoholic drinks, consider infusing them with whip cream. Whipped cream is a versatile ingredient that can be used for a variety of purposes, including preparing egg white foam and cream foam. It can also be used to make an entire cocktail, and it can serve as a soda siphon if you don’t want to purchase one. However, you must ensure that you use a CO2 cartridge in combination with the whip cream charger to avoid spills.
Making mousses
Cream chargers are a simple way to make homemade whipped whipped cream chargers creme. They are a quick and inexpensive way to get the same fluffy texture of restaurant-quality whipped cream. They also work well in the kitchen since they shock the mousse with cold air. This prevents it from weeping when made from conventional whipped cream. When using a cream charger, you simply press the charging device over the blender or mixing bowl blades and pull the trigger. The resulting mousse will be light and airy and the texture will be perfect.
Making desserts
Professional chefs love to use whipped cream chargers for their creations, and the nifty gadget can be yours too. It makes the process of making these desserts easier and faster, while also allowing you to enjoy your creations more. The chargers also help your desserts to be lighter so you can eat less and still enjoy them. The whipped cream charger comes with a nozzle and nitrous oxide gas.
Creating carbonated drinks
While soda siphons and whipped cream chargers are similar, the purpose of a charger is different. A soda siphon forces carbon dioxide gas into liquid, while a whipped cream charger uses CO2 to create a drink. Soda siphons and whipped cream chargers use different pressures to get the carbonated liquids to mix, and the difference in taste and texture makes them completely different.
Creating foams
To create the classic, airy whipped cream, you need to use heavy cream with 30-40 percent butterfat. The fat is a stabilizer that keeps the air in, and it keeps the cream from falling out too quickly. A stabilizer, also known as an emulsifier, is an ingredient that most supermarket creams contain. This ingredient is important for creating stable, volume-boosting foams. It is also important to ensure that the cream is not too warm when whipping it.
