The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle Part 1: Position/Momentum and Schrodinger's Cat - Duration: 6:07.

It's professor Dave, let's learn about

the Heisenberg uncertainty principle.

Once Schrodinger and pals had

sufficiently developed the brand new

field of quantum mechanics, some

perplexing implications arose. For one, in

classical mechanics an object will have

a precise value for its position and

momentum at all times. In quantum

mechanics, this was no longer the case.

If a quantum particle were to have precise

values for position and momentum it

would simply be a particle, but all

particles are also waves, so this kind of

determinism no longer applies. Instead, as

we saw with the Schrodinger equation, the

quantum realm is probabilistic in nature.

This brought about the issue of how to

describe the position and momentum of

the electron. Under the Copenhagen

interpretation of quantum mechanics, an

electron simply does not possess precise

values for both of these parameters at

the same time, so when we take a measurement,

the result is randomly drawn from a

probability distribution. An electron

will seem to be in a particular location

if and only if we measure its location.

However, if we know its location we can

no longer know its precise momentum, or

what it's doing, and this notion is

summarized in Heisenberg's uncertainty

principle. This states that when looking

at complementary variables like position

and momentum, the more precisely one

parameter is known, the less we know

about the other. Here, delta x represents

the uncertainty in position, while delta

p is the uncertainty in momentum, and

their product must be greater than h

over 4 pi. If the uncertainty in one

parameter decreases, the uncertainty in

the other must increase, and if one

becomes known with total certainty, the

other becomes unknowable. The important

thing to realize is that this has

nothing to do with our measuring instruments.

This is a fundamental quality of matter.

We can't reduce an electron to particle

like determinacy, as it is also a wave, as

was demonstrated by the double slit

experiment. Furthermore, this forces us to

examine what it is to make an

observation. To know the location of an

object, to see it, at least one photon

must hit our eyeballs. But if a quantum

system interacts with even just one

photon such that it can be seen, that

interaction itself will alter the state

of the system. So the seemingly innocent

act of observation has a concrete impact

on the system. When this problem of

measurement emerged, the scientific

community was in total confusion.

This notion, and the idea that nature was not

deterministic but rather probabilistic

on the most fundamental level, had

incredible philosophical implications

and many scientists developed thought

experiments to elucidate the absurdity

of a probabilistic universe. The most

famous of these thought experiments was

developed by Schrodinger himself, as he

could not accept the Copenhagen

interpretation. It is called

Schrodinger's cat, and it focuses on the

bizarre concept of quantum superposition.

The idea is that if the Copenhagen

interpretation is correct, a quantum

system can exist in a number of

different states, and until the system is

observed it exists in a superposition of

all these states. Once observed, it

collapses into one of the definite

states according to its probability.

Schrodinger did not like this, and he

came up with a paradox. He supposed that

there was a box containing a single

radioactive atom. At any given moment

this atom has the potential to decay,

emitting a high-energy particle. Inside

the box there is also a cat, a flask of

poison, and a device with the ability to

detect radiation.

If the device detects that the atom has

decayed, it will trigger a mechanism that

breaks the flask of poison and the cat

will die. If it does not detect this, it

won't, and the cat will be alive.

The problem arises when we isolate this

system from observation. According to the

Copenhagen interpretation, the atom is in

a superposition of decaying and not

decaying, which seems pretty abstract and

harmless, but because of the mechanism in

the box, that means that the cat must be

in a superposition of dead and alive.

Only once you open the box and look

inside will you observe the cat as being

one or the other.

Schrodinger meant for this paradox to

discredit the Copenhagen interpretation

but there are many camps that believe

that this dead/alive superposition is a

concrete reality. This thought experiment

remains a classic, and it is frequently

referred to when comparing different

interpretations of quantum mechanics.

But enough about cats, let's finish up with Heisenberg.

Oh yeah!

It Would have been Nice to have kept the Envelope but Unfortunately I open Letters the same way i look at Disabled People

Harshly and With [Mal-intent] [I] would have asked my assistant to do it but She was busy Looking at it has a mini

Anyway the Package the Seeds Came in Were Pretty Nifty and Kind of Cute to be Honest I really [liked] the Addition of

Instructions like as if you Didn't know how to Plant Seeds Yourself of Course before I went out to save the bees [I] had to?

Have a couple of Honey Buns tasha if you're Watching this Please don't fat Shame me I have very low self-Esteem

Speaking About Tasha

[Alright]

She was Riding Bikes at Moab [I] guess That's Pretty cool

You Know i mean do I sound Jealous [I'm] not Jealous if I sound

Jealous it's Because I'm not Jealous [I] just want to Reiterate I'm not Jealous why, Would I be Jealous what what why?

Anyhow She was Trying to Destroy the environment [I] was Trying to save it [but] First I needed to know

Where [Exactly], was I going to plant them as I scoped the yard I wondered where Would my seeds best be Utilized

[Maybe] Here Maybe Here

Probably There I don't know I was in A dilemma on par With

Infidelity As I said Awkwardly on the Patio Chair Contemplating Where the seeds Should go I heard a buzzing [Noise] it

Was [A] bee Flying About Knowing bees Were Vicious creatures that, don't like to be messed with I calmly Tried to escape the Scene

That Is until one of them flew right by me and I freaked the fuck out who Would have Known a small garden of?

Schrödinger's Cat - Duration: 5:53.

(The cat is dead.)

We will all come back

at the end of time.

As a brain in a vat,

floating around,

and purely mind.

I'm just back from the future

and I'm here to report

we'll be assimilated,

we'll all join the Borg.

We'll be collectively stupid,

if you like that or not.

Resistance is futile,

we might as well get started now.

I never asked to be part of your club

so shut up

and leave me alone.

But we are all connected

(the cat is alive)

we will never die.

(The cat is dead.)

Like Schrödinger's cat

we will all be dead

and still alive.

Like Schrödinger's cat

we will all be dead

We will never forget,

and we will never lie.

All our hate,

our fear and doubt

will be far behind.

But I'm not a computer and I'm not a machine,

I am not any other,

let me be me.

If the only pill that you have left is the blue and not the red,

it might not be so bad to be somebody's pet.

But we are all connected

Somewhere in the multiverse, it's still alive.

Think that is bad? If you trust our math,

the future is as fixed

as is the past.

In quantum mechanics, particles don't have to decide what they want to do.

At least not until you measure them.

They can go both, left and right.

They can have spin up and spin down.

They are in what we call a "superposition" of states.

An object in such a superposition can do many things at the same time.

If cats were quantum objects, they could be both dead and alive,

at least until you measure them.

Then they suddenly have to decide, what to do.

This might seem strange.

I'm sure you have heard that quantum mechanics is often referred to as "spooky" or "counterintuitive."

But countless experiments have confirmed

that small particles - electrons and even molecules -

indeed behave this way.

And it's not what makes quantum mechanics so strange.

It's that we never observe any of this in daily life.

How can it possibly be,

that we are made of small particles that can be in superpositions

and yet we never see anything in a superposition?

The dead-and-alive cat is a "Gedankenexperiment"

- a thought experiment -

imagined by Erwin Schrödinger.

He took a truly quantum process - the decay of an atom -

and tried to magnify it to macroscopic scales

that are observable with the eye.

The decay of an atom is fundamentally random.

We cannot predict exactly when an atom is going to decay,

we can only predict that it will decay with a certain probability

in a certain amount of time.

So, suppose we take an atom

that has decayed with 50% probability.

Before we observe it, it has both decayed and hasn't.

It's in a superposition.

Now, Schrödinger says,

let's take the atom and put it in a box together with a cat

and a trigger mechanism.

When the atom decays, it hits a detector

and a poison is released that kills the cat.

Now if the atom has decayed with 50% probability,

the cat is both dead and alive.

It seems absurd, doesn't it?

And it is absurd.

It wasn't well understood in Schrödinger's days,

but quantum superpositions are very fragile.

They get destroyed easily.

Especially in warm environments, like on Earth,

everything interacts constantly with something else:

with air, with light, with the box.

The smaller a particle is, the easier it is to isolate it,

and the longer quantum superpositions can survive.

This works for electrons and atoms, but not for cats.

The process that causes these quantum-typical superpositions to get destroyed

is called "decoherence."

Thanks to decoherence,

Schrödinger's cat is either dead or alive, but not both.

Balenciaga Is Selling the IKEA Tote for $2,145

This really puts perspective into what happens when you slap a brand name onto something.

A bag that looks like it came straight from IKEA has just received a high-fashion upgrade

by Balenciaga.

The bag itself is made from glazed leather with hints of gold costing a whopping $2,145

– a far stretch when you compare it to a similar looking product that costs 99 cents.

An IKEA spokesperson sounded quite happy stating: "We are deeply flattered that the Balenciaga

tote bag resembles the IKEA iconic sustainable blue bag for 99 cents.

Nothing beats the versatility of a great big blue bag!"

People have been wondering if the more expensive one is just as good; considering that IKEA's

blue bag can hold nearly 50 liters of water with ease.

Van driver tricks Chinese traffic cops by drawing his own parking spot

Finding a parking spot can be a pain in any city, but a driver in eastern China has come

up with a novel idea to get around the problem – he paints one himself.

Local traffic cops had noticed the strange markings while on patrol.

Compared with legitimate lines, the chalked ones were too thin and incomplete.

Surveillance video later obtained by police shows a goods van parked on the side of the

road on Monday afternoon.

Later a man wearing an orange shirt gets out of the van and appears to be drawing something

on the road.

The van was parked in the same spot for four days.

The man has been identified and now has to pay a fine between $72 to $722 dollars.

Homeless people handed free beer as part of Bud Light campaign

Bewildered shoppers watched a Bud Light 4×4 park up beside a Subway in Whitechapel.

The staff gifted cans of lager to passers-by as part of a promotional campaign.

The vehicle was quickly told to move by one of the council staff because they did not

have any permission to be there.

There were a number of rough sleepers in the area who were excited of the event.

One rough sleeper said that he was given quite a few cans and handed some of those out to

his friends.

He said: "They were just handing them out to everyone, I ended up with a trolley full.

American beer Bud Light has reappeared in the UK this year 2017, 16 years after failing

to make the product to take off.

The light beer, which went on sale in February, has a much lower ABV than normal Budweiser

as well as less calories.

But City Centre Councillor Nick Small took a dimmer view of the marketing campaign, describing

the actions of Anheuser-Busch – the company behind Bud Light – as irresponsible, aggressive

and wrong.

Constipated Man "Shoved An Eel Up His Bum"

Doctors removed an eel from a man in China who was afflicted with stomach pains.

The man inserted the creature into his anus in a futile attempt to unblock his intestines

– after realizing he made things worse he went to seek medical treatment.

The 49 year old man initially visited the hospital earlier that week due to his excruciating

stomach pains, informing doctors that he had a significant blockage in his bowels.

The doctors advised him to remain in the hospital for treatment but the man refused to wait

and decided to take matters into his own hands by inserting a 50 cm long live eel into his

bum.

He was under the impression that eels could be used to alleviate constipation according

to old medicinal practice.

The treatment however had the opposite effect and made things much worse.

After being rushed to the hospital the surgeons extracted the 8 ounce eel and the remains

of his bowel blockage…

One fine day

When William Wallace woke up

He saw Finn MacCool just taking a walk

Through Scotland's highlands around

And then!

Both heroes stopped in their tracks

And William said: "Finn I'll buy you a beer"

"It's only a barrel a pound!"

When heroes arrived to the tavern nearby

Innkeeper with face like a mouse

He said: "Maggie old hag, bring the drink for the lads"

"The best booze in the house!"

"LASS!"

The yelled!

"Pour I've got coins to spend!"

And they sang, and they drank, and they pinched the barmaids

Until they no longer could stand

In the morn'

When Wallace and MacCool stood up

From under the table, just as soon as they were able

Bought coffee a penny a cup.

And then!

Mighty a hangover hit!

A good gaelic beer makes you sing in full cheer,

This was some Englishman's shit!

They woke the innkeeper, they roughed him a bit

"Mate, you call this crap stout?!"

"It's the bestest king's beer from over the frontier"

"I've got it from a guy in the south!"

"MATE!"

They yelled!

"Give us the fastest mares on the moor!"

And they rode, and they drank, and they shagged local maids

On the way to the King Edward's door.

Upon arriving to town, they knocked on the old castle gates

King Edward came down in his flowery nightgown

He said: "Hey, whats this ruckus, mates?"

"Don't you know that it's late, why'd you knock on my gates?"

"Tell me or I'll call the guards!"

"PAL!"

They yelled!

"We'll slap you silly, so please come out!"

"This one's for Culloden, and this one's for Boyne"

"And this one's for the pissy-ass stout!"

Deciding they're the best, heroes went to the West

To drink Guinness and pound on their chests...

Bad News: Church Cops - Duration: 1:03.

I don't know, my little thing is separation of church and state.

Anyone hear of it?

This is like church and church and state.

The Alabama senate is close to saying that a large church in the state can start its

own police force.

I don't know, I don't know if I'm the only one, but I don't know if I feel good about

it.

About a church having a police force.

Or about like, a Domino's having a police force.

I just think maybe, you know, we should have a step before police force.

So maybe an ice cream shop.

I think this ice cream shop could be great!

It's like, priest-pecan.

CHRIST, this is good!

You know, almond.

It's pope-berry in like a little pope mobile.

And everyone comes in, ya know, and they do all the stuff that I don't know because I'm

Jewish and I'm so sorry if this was offensive.

Alabama and other places in the country that are doing this, just make an ice cream shop

first.

Bible-beltin'-berry-belicious.

How about that?

I should be making ice cream for churches.

This shouldn't be my job.

Wear Orange: Can You See Me Now? - Duration: 1:38.

Hi, my name is Hadiya. It's your job as students to say yes to a great future.

To know Hadiya...

boy....

She wasn't someone who would be in a crowd and would be lost.

Hadiya was an athlete.

She was very family-oriented.

Hadiya was a comedian.

Everybody was her best friend.

I don't know how to explain it, but she was just...

herself.

She was...mine.

Hadiya was 15 when she was shot and killed.

She was our heart.

But for some, she was a headline.

That's because in America, more than 90 people die

and hundreds more are injured to gun violence every day.

We wear orange for Hadiya...

for what her life means to us.

I wear orange as a symbol of what's happened to me and my family.

I wear orange because I am not a statistic.

I wear orange...

like a hunter in the woods

to protect my life.

I wear orange...

because orange demands to be seen...

and I demand to see change.

So tell me...

can you see me now?

Fold the dragon with paper! - Duration: 3:58.

Let's Go, Let's Go, Let's Go ~

Hi! Ahn PD: Wait!

Hi, I'm 'Yong' of Cocoon Story.

Have you ever seen something that symbolizes a character while watching movies or anime?

I looked at it, and I thought I wanted something to symbolize me.

Like sunglasses and a hat the captain always wears.

My name is yong, right?

Yong means a dragon in Chinese characters.

So I'll try folding paper into the shape of a dragon.

Let's go ~

I'm going to make a big dragon with this big piece of paper.

Captain Cha: I'll make a small deer with this.

Yeah~ big dragon~

Let's make a dragon!

This paper isn't originally square, but I cut it in a square shape.

Does it look like a square?

Ahn PD: More up. Further down. no.

If you fold the paper with your fingernail, it tears. So.. What do we call this?

Please fold it with your finger.

Not thin paper, but thick one. When folded several times, it doesn't tear easily.

Too thick to fold.

Among my favorite games, there's one in which the dragon is the strongest enemy.

It was really scary and strong in the game.

Ahn PD: So what?

I'm just saying.

It's hard to make this dragon without a guide, so I watch Jo Nakashima's tutorial in the YouTuber, doing origami now.

It looks like a ray! ray ~

Ahn PD: It's yong folding the dragon while watching the guide.

It's very difficult to make a dragon.

Too thick to fold.

It doesn't seem to be done as I made the cake last time, so I feel good.

Looks like a rocket?

By now, what is captain Cha folding up?

Doesn't It looks like a hummingbird? hummingbird!

Thanks to Joe Nakashima for making this tutorial.

It's a challenging thing.

Ahn PD: There is nothing easy in this world.

I hope that you work hard and achieve what you want to do.

I guess I didn't cut it into a square. It's not matched.

Isn't it like a baby dragon?

It's time for baby dragons to grow.

The time has come for baby dragon to go hunting for himself, leaving his mother's arms.

Ahn PD: Is that a tongue?

No, it's ... It's a jaw. Ahn PD: Is that a jaw?

Is it a tongue? He's so cute if It's his tongue. Ahn PD: That's what I'm saying!

He is panting.

Ahn PD: Dragon's tongue.

I made it. Does it looks like a dragon?

Because there is only one dragon, It feels something missing. So I'm going to make his friend.

So let's make another one with blue paper.

I made it.

I made two dragons to symbolize me, and I'll come with these dragons every time.

So far, It's 'Yong' of Cocoon story.

Let's play kids ~

In 'cocoon story', we composed music, and inserted it into the images. The music is distributed free of charge to all of you.

It can be downloaded here.

Where?

there!

Aha~

The more I do this, the more I feel stupid.

What If You're In Love With a Fictional Character? - Duration: 4:13.

Hello my friends! Kaitlyn here! And have you ever had a crush on a fictional character?

Oh my goodness YES!

Ron Weasley was when I was in middle school.

Frodo Baggins was when I was in high school.

Mark Sloane aka McSteamy from Grey's Anatomy when I was college.

And Captain Hook and Damon Salvatore most recently.

Uh, can I add Steve Rogers to that list? Because be still my heart!

(INTRO MUSIC)

So okay...I know this is kind of a SUPER WEIRD video topic, but whenever I make videos about

talking to your crush or asking your crush out, I always get a few comments like this:

"Oh my god, but my crush doesn't exist! He's a fictional character! LOL. Tongue out emoji."

And I'm like, you know what? Me too, man! Me too!

So I wanted to celebrate our fictional crushes today, because why not?

YouTube seems to be going down the drain so I can just do whatever I want.

The first step to dealing with a fictional crush is well...you know that they're fictional, right?

You can't actually date them.

I mean, even if it's a TV show or movie, the character is not the actor themselves?

*scoffs* Of course, I know that Kaitlyn! What do you take me for! A crazy person!

Okay...I was just checking….

Step 2 though, embrace the crush.

Make a pinterest board with pictures of them.

Or decorate your binder with their face (does anybody still do that anymore?)

or your phone background with them.

Or make comics or fanart about them because it's FUN!

The best part about a fictional crush is that they're not real.

They just represent all the things that you love or want.

And they're super fun to squee over with your girlfriends!

And okay, so most of the time, the standards that they set are just a bit unattainable.

Like, he quotes Shakespeare and works out?

Unlikely.

Those boobs with that tiny waist?

Yeah, no.

What's cool is getting to live vicariously through another character on the show

And having a Pinterest board of their face to look back on and reminisce

about your "pirate" phase.

Which brings us to step 3, which is make sure that you don't embrace it so much so that you

try to manipulate a real life person into being more like your fictional crush.

This sounds crazy...but honestly it really does happen.

At least to the point of crushing on a real life person because they kind remind you of your fictional crush.

So I had an intense Elijah Wood in Lord of the Rings obsession in high school.

Like those blue-green eyes! They're so big and beautiful! Oh goodness!

And so I met a guy who actually looked SO MUCH LIKE HIM.

Like the big green eyes and the dark curly hair and just...I was instantly smitten.

He was nothing like Frodo or Elijah Wood.

But he was so physically similar (except whole the Hobbit thing, of course) that I was kind of obsessed with him.

We ended up dating. And it was pretty fun. He was a great kisser. But he also cheated on me.

And was all very on-again-off-again and basically he was NOT the fairytale boyfriend sent from the heavens

despite looking like my dream guy.

So moral of the story is don't date someone just because they look like your fictional crush!

Hey! Hey! No, wait! Wait!

I was dating Parker before Captain Hook was even introduced on Once Upon a Time!

Uh, yeah...sure!

So fictional crushes are FUN!

Don't feel bad for having one.

Like yeah, you can't really have a conversation with them in real life, but you can imagine lots of awesome,

swoon-worthy conversations with them!

Which reminds me, if you've ever wondered why my channel is called "i IMAGINE blank" it's because I've

always been obsessed with imagining things.

Like I live in my head far more than I do in the real world.

Basically I can't fault you for having a crush on a fictional character. Embrace it!

Just don't go crazy and like start dating someone who looks like Harry Potter. K? K.

So what do you guys think? Who's your fictional crush?

What Happens When Seniors Self-Medicate on Marijuana? - Duration: 5:39.

Angela Frank: I never thought I would get to be this old.

I wonder why God is leaving me here so long and not helping me out with the pain.

I get a bit angry with him.

I'm not supposed to feel that way, I know, but I do.

I'm on a lot of pain medication and I hate that because I'm a doer.

I don't like to just lie down all the time.

Speaker 2: What did marijuana mean in the society you grew up in?

Angela Frank: I actually just thought that people that took it were nuts.

I was afraid of it.

I don't like to not know what I'm doing and I was afraid I would get that feeling.

Sue Taylor: My generation follows the rules, but I'm going to show you how it's going to

look, what we purpose to do with it and it's going to upgrade the community.

We were taught in high school that weed, as they say, is a devil's drug.

Speaker 2: And the ultimate end of the marijuana addict.

Hopeless insanity.

Sue Taylor: To fight against that, we're almost going against what we were taught, what we

believe from our core, and I recognize it because I as one of those people, and sometimes

I'm still frightened.

Once it becomes legal, it legitimizes everything.

We will be less reluctant to try it.

KC Page: Say who you are and perhaps what you're looking to learn tonight.

Any time something's new that has no side effects and a really high acceptance level,

there's a lot of good, early adopters.

Speaker 5: I'm just curious.

I've seen so many of the residents here in pain and I'm just curious.

KC Page: Pain control, appetite stimulation, eliminating anxiety and releasing them from

the anxiety drugs, which are really bad for elders.

That's one of the scary things as an administrator and a professional, that we're walking a very

thin line here, so we've been using them, going slow, documenting everything and hoping

for the best.

Angela Frank: My friend gave me a cookie, gave me a quarter of a cookie, and he realizes

how small I am, and within an hour, after I had taken that I was so dizzy I could hardly

drive this cart and I got terribly frightened.

I don't know exactly what kind of fear it was, but I was just frightened.

Speaker 2: You had a bad experience.

Angela Frank: Yeah.

Speaker 2: So I guess I'm trying to understand why you think it could be different.

Angela Frank: Well, because I think I was overdosed.

I just ... I want something so badly that will help.

Sue Taylor: Hi.

How are you?

Angela Frank: I'm fine.

Thank you.

Sue Taylor: For number one, I never would have recommended that you take that much because

of your body weight and because you haven't had previous experience with cannibis.

Angela Frank: Right.

Sue Taylor: That was really too much to take.

Angela Frank: Yeah.

Sue Taylor: And those feelings that you were feeling is quite scary.

We are not used to being high or being out of sorts.

What would you be using the cannibis for?

For what ailment?

Angela Frank: Pain, just real severe pain.

Sue Taylor: ... what they call CBD.

Are you familiar with CBD?

Angela Frank: No.

Sue Taylor: Okay, the cannibis plants have two major components, CBD and THC.

The THC is what people know for for the high.

The CBD, there's little high associated with it.

Speaker 6: ... it's going to be different than how I respond to it, right?

So the best thing I can say for seniors is trial and error with medical marijuana.

Sue Taylor: Yeah, it's trial and error and people get frustrated with it because they're

so used to say, "You take this pill and call me in the morning."

Speaker 6: Right Sue Taylor: Well, it's not that way with the

cannibis.

Speaker 6: Right, this is not a pharmaceutical.

Sue Taylor: They get frustrated.

Omega mix, it's in mint cookies.

Okay, they have a tablet.

That's good.

So they have in many, many different kinds and these are the different ways you can ingest

it.

Fueled By Death Cast Presents: Aeropress Demo With Death Wish Coffee - Duration: 6:34.

Fueled By Death Cast

Jeff: You were telling me how you learned how to professionally brew a cup of Aeropress.

Dustin: It's much more than professional, Jeffrey.

Jeff: Oh ok.

Dustin: I learned this method from the Aeropress champion.

Now, if you are an Aeropress champion, you have a gold Aeropress.

Jeff: Like, solid gold?

Dustin: Nah, it's plastic.

Jeff: Ok

Dustin: Let's be real here.

Jeff: I don't really want to make coffee out of gold, but I mean.

Maybe?

Dustin: I would have to!

At least once

So anyways, him and the champion from the year before that, had a contest to make the

best coffee, and I had a blind taste test, and I hands down, I thought, I mean the world

of difference between the two coffees.

And it was the same type of coffee.

It was astounding.

But the one that I enjoyed thoroughly was the champion.

So I am gonna bring his method to you, and share it with the world.

Jeff: Awesome!

Dustin: Hopefully I don't butcher it, but you know, it will be somewhat close.

Jeff: Ok, ok.

So how do we start off?

First, you need an Aeropress, obviously.

Dustin: Yup.

And um, he uses three filters, which surprised me.

Jeff: Three?

Ok.

Take your three filters and you put them in the little cap.

Dustin: Yup, so we take a little water, a little boiling water and we are going to pour

it through just a tiny bit, through the filters, just to make sure that the filters are clean

and pure.

Jeff: And how hot is the water?

Dustin: We are going from 175 to 180 degrees.

A little bit lower than a drip or anything else, that is just the way the Aeropress works.

Jeff: Ok

Dustin: So we just pour a little bit of water

Jeff: A little bit of water in your Aeropress, kinda like charging your mug.

Dustin: Kinda like charging your mug, and I am going to charge the mug too.

Cause we want to keep the mug nice and hot, so you don't get cold nasty coffee.

Jeff: Ow

Dustin: Yea careful, that is boiling water.

Jeff: Yes.

Don't get the boiling water on you, becasue it hurts.

So you charged your mug, you charged your Aeropress, put the Aeropress on top of the

mug.

Dustin: Alright, and we are going to use the brewing ratio that is given to you on the

side

Jeff: Right on the side of the Death Wish bag, it is right there for you guys.

Dustin: Hear me scoop this in, and uh, try not to get coffee grinds on the Aeropress

lip because that compromises the seal of the Aeropress, of the plunger

Jeff: Now, um, what kind of grind should we use?

Dustin: Now usually with Aeropress, from what I have learned, you use a finer grind.

But, mister champion himself actually used a more of a drip-style grind, which is actually

convenient because then you can just buy ground coffee, and you can just put it right in your

Aeropress.

Jeff: Ok so that is easy

Dustin: So boom!

We are loaded up.

We make sure our plunger is moistened

Jeff: Ok, so again, charge all your different pieces, you know, make sure you got a little

bit of water on everything

Dustin: Alright, I am going to fill my Aeropress tube full of water, pretty much to the brim.

And we are going to stir it, and we are gonna get the plunger in there.

So here we go, pouring a little bit of water.

Ouch, on myself.

I'm bad at this.

Jeff: It's ok, you are doing good.

Dustin: That's why I'm not the champion.

I just learn from the best.

Jeff: Alright, so we filled it up there with water

Dustin: And we stir it up

Jeff: Ok

Dustin: Nice and lightly, try not to get any on the top

Jeff: And this all comes with an Aeropress right?

Like the plunger, the stirrer, the filters

Dustin: Yup.

And what I am going to do is I'm going to put in the plunger at an angle as to not push

any down, and I am going to pull up on the plunger just a little bit to stop the water

from draining, and this creates like a vacuum.

Jeff: Ok, so you come in at an angle, and then, you create the seal by pulling it into

the Aeropress and then , er pushing it into the Aeropress and then pulling it up.

Dustin: I kinda angle it into the Aeropress, so I am not actually pushing it down, so I

am not plunging any through.

I get it in there and I pull it up just a tiny bit to stop it from pouring through.

And we are going to let it brew for only 45 seconds.

Jeff: Alright

Dustin: Now I see the timer is going here so we are good.

And the reasonwhy it's 45 seconds - there is diffferent notes of flavor that are released

in the coffee with brew time, so you start, he explained it - I am going to butcher this

- you are going to get your sour flavors, your sweet flavors and then you are going

to get more into your bitter flavors as you let it brew longer, so you only want it to

brew for 45 seconds.

So we are at the 45 second mark here, and you plunge it through

Jeff: Ok

Dustin: Nice and light, you don't need to muscle this through.

Jeff: these are so great for you know, on the go coffee making.

Dustin: And you push it down, right up until you hear the hiss, and I will put the microphone

up so you can hear the hiss.

sssssss

There it is

Jeff: Oh I heard it

Dustin: No more

Jeff: No more.

So as soon as it hisses, you stop.

Dustin: Yeah, and I know, the way I was making it before was just pushing it down and getting

all the juices out but we want the most pure flavors of our coffee to exist in our cup.

You know if you push it down all the way, the satisfaction of spitting out a dry coffee

puck into your garbage, but this will make a little bit of a sloppy mess, try not to

burn your hand.

And we add a little water to top off our 11 ounce cup

Jeff: Now, if I didn't add water to it?

Dustin: It would still be good.

It would still be delicous, just, this kinda makes it last a little bit longer, it makes

it more like a cup of coffee that you would expect.

So Jeff, try that out and let me know how that is.

Jeff: Oh that is smooth.

That is so nice, that is really good!

And you know, I've had Aeropress coffee before, actually from you D-Man, on the road, and

um, this is better!

Dustin: Yea!

I was surprised, and I now, that is the way I make my coffee every moring now, and its,

dude, it comes out so much better.

That is the way I make my Death Proof coffee too.

Jeff: I am going to keep this cup of coffee.

Dustin: [laughs] Throw the other one away.

Jeff: Cause it is really delicious

Dustin: So yea, that is how you make Aeropress like a champion.

Jeff: That is awesome.

Dustin: Pretty simple.

So the three filters, you know, we are not doing an inverted technique, I don't know

if you have ever seen anybody make it upside down.

People do that so you can keep the water and it doesn't leak out of the cup, but we make

up for that by doing the, pulling up on the plunger a little bit when we put it in, and

you are only losing like just a little bit of water, so you get that full brewed cup

of coffee.

Jeff: Well, there you go, now you can all be pros at Aeropress coffee

Dustin: You're welcome.
