    Use warm/hot water when filling the bottle with yeast? Instantly attracts them?

  • @Renovation-Dan
    @Renovation-Dan8 күн бұрын

    It would probably help slightly. I’m not sure exactly what it is that makes the yeast smell bad but a couple of hours in the sun seems to do the trick. I think it’s a mixture of the heat and time, so putting warm water in then leaving it in the sun would probably be the sweet spot.

    This is a beautiful creation. If this is something that you hope to recreate, possibly as a business, I'll bet it could be done affordably and less laborious using something like an Aircrete method (it would be light enough for customers to realistically carry as well). Hope you continue this artistic path, because I think it will take you very far.

  • @Renovation-Dan
    @Renovation-Dan10 күн бұрын

    Thank you. It was my second attempt after a failed version one (I’m making a video out of the failed attempt too). I’ll definitely make more of these at some point. In terms of the cost, it wasn’t too expensive - I didn’t track it but I’d guess £30. The weight but be the issue but I think it could be made a lot lighter like you say. I’m not sure exactly what goes into aircrete, but my dad made a cast concrete chair and added polystyrene balls (the sort for filling bean bags) into the concrete and it made a big difference to the weight.

  • @monarchblack3004
    @monarchblack300410 күн бұрын

    @@Renovation-Dan The polystyrene is an interesting idea. I recently saw a concrete cast artist use Baking soda in wet clumps that he would splat in the mold, but it was really only for a certain look, not weight. The basic concept of Aircrete (that I have seen on KZread), is a process of mixing concrete with foam from a simple homemade bubble gun, instead of water alone, and the tiny tiny bubbles, make it porous like a concrete sponge. I have not yet tried it, but it looks very promising.

    @@Renovation-Dan For my patio, a couple of times a year I use a bucket of water with about 1/4 of a bottle of bleach and just brush it over and leave it to dry. It does a good job , and every couple of years I jet wash it. It's quite dilute so doubt you will get much salting, you could try it on an inconspicuous part of your house and see how it goes, maybe make a video of it. I found that jet washing does the most damage particularly if you have the pavers that are concrete with a coating to make the look like sandstone. The jet wash wears away the surface and exposes the concrete paver if used too much.
