Quick steeping idea

[xitheron]

I had an idea...

I took some fresh made juice, put 4 plastic bottles in a ziplock bag first, then stuffed that in a sock that I wrapped in a towl and tied tight with an old shirt. Then I put that in the DRYER! (with a few more towels)

It's tumbling now..

I don't know how it will turn out. I may be crazy. I've read the threads on the ultrasonic cleaners and crockpot methods but I've never tried anything like that. I just thought if it needs heat and motion I can cover that in the laundry room

Anyone ever tried this?

This sounds like it's potentially.......messy. You might want to throw some more towels in there with that. I mean I see what you're going for here, and I hope it works, but....

 

[xitheron]

Yeah it's risky.. I'm keeping an eye on it. Hopefully the ziplock bag will catch any leakage if it were to occur...

My buddy keeps telling me to tape a bottle to my hubcap.

Haha nice. I feel like that would not mix it properly, though, but rather separate the contents due to centrifugal forces.

 

[xitheron]

Haha that may actually work if you could secure it... Bungee maybe..depending on the hubcap. If I was a hubcap maker I would design one with a special ejuice steeping compartment. Only problem is, I don't drive much

Maybe something under the hood that could use the vibration and heat of the engine...

 

[xitheron]

Especially good for long road trips

I think the potholes would solve that problem, we have an overabundance of them.

Vibration from my stereo!

I still like the breast method of steeping the best. You know the one where you stick the bottle between the breasts of your girl friend and let her walk around with them for the whole day. The best part of that is reaching in to check and see if there ready.

Much bouncing needed to ensure everything is good :thumbup:

Yes works best if your girl friend is an avid jogger.

Dryer update:

Well they survived about 4 hrs off and on in there... (probably 3 hrs total..I gave the dryer a few breaks) Just got them out and they're very warm and the juice is very thin at the moment. They're all 100% VG based so I know they will thicken as they cool. They seem a little darker in color as well.. Taste test coming soon

Haha, let us know how it steeped!

 

[Aurora-Oblivion]

Nice!

Can't wait to hear tasting results, thanks for sharing!

I would think your method waste a lot of electric or gas and oh my god the ware and tare on that poor dryer. You should really rethink this. I think an investment in a decent ultrasonic cleaner will be cheaper then a a new dryer in the long run.
