    So in a care setting, we refer to the different levels of thickness as nectar, honey, applesauce, and pudding. The initial cup was definitely applesauce verging on pudding thick, not honey. My residents have told me it's better in cold things than hot, but it's much harder to mix in cold things. I always recommend mixing it using a fork, just to keep it from being lumpy. And I know Evan kinda liked it, but there's a reason we don't use Thick It in regular cooking😅

    I have to use things like this and I agree with your residents 😅 I usually heat up whatever I'm mixing it into and then cool it off if I'm making a cold drink. I mostly live on things that are ALREADY thick though, like smoothies and blended soups, because I don't really like the texture of the artificially thickened liquids.

    I used thick it for a person I worked with who had dementia. She was pretty far gone and mostly just stared off into space or slumped over herself. But I misjudged that stuff and tried to give her a drink of thickened juice and it was so thick it didn't even slide down the side of the cup and she burst out laughing hysterically at me. Now that's what I think of whenever anyone mentions thick it.

And then at long last, you get to taste it and it shatters all your hopes and tastes sooo gross and bitter? I thought it would be thick! Adults used to talk about coffee like oh this one is robust, it's strong, or just soft and round. All adjectives that made me think it would be thick!

    I think Katelyn's extra thick coffee is what it was supposed to be based off of the instructions. You guys accidentally said 5.5+5.5=9, instead of 11. Maybe the first one was weird because it was at a "between" texture that wasn't recommended. It might be cool to try this with a sugary, extra flavored milk and see if you can make an "ice cream" that can't give you a brain freeze.

    The first coffee was much thicker than what we would consider "honey" consistency in the hospital -- it was closer to the next level, which is sometimes called "pudding" consistency. I think their scoops were a little generous, plus they used the amount intended for skim milk -- but they were putting it into a mixture of coffee, whole milk, and a non-dairy milk that already contains thickeners. All of those require LESS thickener than skim milk, so they really used way too much.

    "It might be cool to try this with a sugary, extra flavored milk" You would be making instant pudding. Modified corn starch is exactly what they use to make instant pudding thick. Ice cream has the texture it has because of tiny ice crystals that melt as you eat it. You don't get ice cream by just making milk a thicker consistency.

E.g. mouth or throat cancers, muscle tone issues, sensory issues, development delays, post-surgery for healing. It's a wonderful product for safety but none of my patients have enjoyed it in anything except desserts or the occasional cold drink. Flavour plays a huge factor too.

    As a person that works in a hospital kitchen and have used the thickener, there are multiple types of thickeners. Some are for flavoring and others work better at different temperatures. One is meant for cold foods, another is for hot foods and we have a third for coffee and a fourth for decaf coffee. Edit: for mixing we use an industrial kitchen blender so we won’t end with clumps in the mix like what you get with hand mixing.

    As someone who slowly sips on a coffee overtime, starting with a less hot cup of coffee and slowly sipping it as it cools is how I prefer it, but I hate if I mix cold milk into already cool coffee making the coffee too cold which might happen as I make 2-3 cups worth in one batch and just top off my cup before the pot cools too much. I really hope I'm not alone but I'm sure I am.

    Soda aside, congrats, you have literally just reinvented tapioca pudding and "condensed" soup, both of which are primarily thickened with some kind of starch. But that's not a reason to not do it. It's probably extra reason to yes, absolutely do it, whether with this or just with some other starch products. Especially the first one. I think you'd want more tapioca pearls than they'll give you, but a matcha or black tea tapioca pudding sounds amazing.

    American pudding is essentially a thick sauce, usually vanilla or chocolate(though it could be fruit flavored or even bread pudding). It's about the consistency of a béchamel sauce. I suppose it's sometimes made with gelatin, but I usually use corn starch or tapioca starch/flour since I prefer those as thickeners. Gelatin is usually used to make things like Jell-o, which are thicker and stiffer. Those are basically a jiggly solid that dissolves/breaks easily.
