- Hey guys n Gals how are you all on another BigStackD weekly melt? Today is something a bit different where i melt down over 700 Aluminium Coffee Pods. I got just over 25% aluminium recovery from them so not to shabby i suppose. I also did a super quick Copper melt to help the BigStack total. Now take a load off put your feet up and enjoy todays video👌😁.

HOW TO MIRROR FINISH A BAR
I start with an 80 grit flap disc on my angle grinder then I use my drill with 50 mm round sanding discs . I start with 150 grit then go through the following Grits 240-400-800 Then once I get to the following Grits I use a small squirt of WD-40 1200-1500-2000-2500-3000. The WD40 helps to lubricate the discs and stops the sanding disk binding up with the metal powder . Then after that I use my buffer wheel on my bench grinder to get a perfect mirrored finish on it.

Coffee Pod To Perfection - ASMR Metal Melting Aluminium Coffee Pods - Trash To Treasure - BigStackD - Розваги
Just a simple melt today but something a touch different where I meltdown over 700 coffee pods, these particular pods are mostly made up of aluminium and I got myself a pretty awesome bar from it, Also I want to thank you all again for helping me get to 1,000,000 subs😃. you are all awesome👍🏻
Thanks you 😊
Awesome as usual, BigStackD!
Cheers from US 🇺🇸 🍻
@@Indie_Outlaw Cheers! 🇺🇸🍻 lmao to another vid at 3:00 am love your vids man! keep doing you
Это круто когда увлечение приносит духовное и материальное богатство.
Congratulations again! Well deserved! You're videos are awesome and strangely relaxing.
Take it from me and 999,999+ other subscribers when I say great video!
I love the fact that the first thing said after opening the package was "I can't melt this." Dude has an unstoppable passion and I love it.
I remember when HPC won a Shorty award and the first thing they did was crush it.
that thought crossed my mind
He could melt it but would make things messy 😛
He had to clarify before anyone could ask. :)
@@lesismore9o9 everyone were already asking weeks from now if they would melt the plaque, clarified then that it's plastic
I shouldn’t be surprised considering this is a channel literally about recycling scrap, but idk I just felt a bit happier seeing you use rain water instead of just running a tap for this project (and the ice blocks :0) super cool!
But why he wasted so much coffee powder?
Ice blocks contain much water
@@siddhant8430 wdym wasted? He put the coffee into compost
The rainwater is less impressive when you consider how much energy was used to produce that bar.
@@petermwheeler geez aren’t you just a joy to be around, always so negative 🙄
Well, I'm late to the party. Congrats on the 1 million subscribers! With such a simple channel, it's no easy feat. No talking, no fluff, just doing what you do.
I guess you could call this
“pod-casting”……man I make myself laugh
@@spreewerks885 haha thanks pal, my kids are constantly rolling their eyes at me, I’m just naturally that lame lol take care.
Shit man... I felt that in my dad genes :P
Instead of a Foodie, he's now a Poddie...
😄😁😆😅😂🤣
Good catch!🤣🤣
you could say this channel is "stacked" lolz
Sweet, guess ill sleep later!
All night bigstackd marathon.. come on man we can do this.. 💪
When the bell rings…
It's 10:44 am right now in Germany 😂😂🇩🇪
The puppies have eyes that can mesmerize any careless bystander! 😊
It never occurred to me that melting and casting metal could be such effective ASMR and so satisfying to watch. I love how efficient you are, nothing ever gets wasted, not even old coffee grounds. I love it that you keep a charcuterie board of snacks in the fridge for your boys and include them in your vids. I LOVE how patriotic you are, ending each melt by raising a drink to your flag, that is awesome! Cheers from the United States!
I like the fact that you know your viewers want you to melt that plaque
Hmmm yeah but that would have been expected of a channel like this that melts stuff sad that the plaques are from plastic/glass
@@Gh3ttoboy can you imagine what the shipping cost would be if they were made of metal?
FYI/ both that leftover water and what you have thrown into FOGO is great nourishment for plans, I would not use it on anything that is PH sensitive like roses, but everything else loves it.
actually a friend of mine uses the grounds on his roses..he swears by it.
I have used coffees grounds on my roses.
Or it's a good alternative for the cheapskate coffee type 😄.
@@davidduncan3659 it really depends on acidity of your coffee and ground roses grew on. it might be good idea, but its not always the case.
As he said, ^ coffee is only good for your plants if the soil is lacking acidity and the pH is too high.
As a chemist I appreciate the beautiful colour of the pale green copper flame and the fact that you use the correct spelling of aluminium.
A huge thanks to you big-Stack for all you’ve taught us and from me all those awesome looking socks you’ve worn throughout and keep up the great job buddy!! CONGRATS 🎉🎈🍾
The steel ring could indicate a failed quality test. Most food plants have metal detectors, magnets or some other system to remove and check for metallic contamination. Your ring might be the remains of a calibration sensor or piece they put in every so many cups to see if the system is still working properly.
I was thinking it's probably a die cover stuck in the cup from when it was stamped
Couldn't the metal ring have already been in the crucible and just not noticed..
@@TheWolfster001 unlikely because they generally float on molten metal. Hard not to notice a floating hunk of steel while you are doing a pour
@@DS-ck8tm be interested if his friends had a weak coffee one morning due to the steel taking up room inside the pod.
@@skeetsmcgrew3282 I meant left from previous pour, I have had harder metals stick to the bottom of older crucibles, remember we don't see every melt he does, also he does a lot of testing on combining different metals too.. And true iron & steel float on aluminum, copper, brass & such..
I’ve been watching this channel for a couple of years and every Friday I’m waiting for a video now granted I may not comment all the time ,but the big bro knows that when I do that means the video was AMAZING 🤩 keep up the great work BIG BRO 😎 & much love for the family....
The flames, the beautiful flames. They're so lovely to watch and beautiful colors that flip around back and forth just gorgeous
You can put the coffee grounds straight on the flower beds, it's fine enough that you don't actually need to compost it first
What if they aren’t an acid loving plant?
@@CrAzYcArNiE08 Buy new plants, I guess 😅
dump them on the grass, grass loves it.
@@davebrock6618 Aaaaaan, then the pups will pick that spot to roll in the grass resulting in coffee scented French bulldogs. 😄
bigstackD: "I always wear a respirator when melting. It keeps me safe, and it hides my secret identity."
I'd love it if Hardware Unboxed or Tech Yes City could send you some dead heatsinks (AIOs) or other PC parts (old alu cases) for a meltdown.
Try Gear Seekers, he's Australian, tho on the other side. He won't have many dead items but he might know where to get some
heatsinks aren't AIO's .. AIO's are all-in-ones .. water cooling units that are all one piece construction. Heatsinks are... heatsinks.
@@stevebanning902 i mean, aio have a copper plate/heatsink in them, just a bit wasteful 🤷
@@stevebanning902 i mean, aio have a copper plate/heatsink in them, just a bit wasteful 🤷
Don't forget you also got LTT, Jays2cents, who do a great deal of modding they probably have some to for melting. ✌🏻
I love your videos especially the ones where you turn household trash into treasure. I have been collecting scrap aluminum myself for the last year but I don't have a way to melt it yet. But if anyone reading this lives in the Sacramento CA area and melts down scrap let me know and I would be happy to give you what I have.
You are the epitome of a recycler. I love it. when i get settled down in after my travels I am going to do what you do. I just watched your bush bullion video, loved it!
I now feed our two Cavaliers cucumber slices just to hear the eating noise 😆😆
Hahaha! Even I’m not crazy enough to melt coffee pods! Good one BigD!
Hey buddy i was wondering if you have any idea why i get the holes in all my copper bars? i see you add some phousforousy stuff or something like that some times in your vids and wondered if i need to get some off that stuff for my big copper bar pours? back when i had my homemade furnace it would take me 70 minutes to melt 3 kgs of copper and I never had any hole but with the devil furnace it only takes 20 mins and every single time the bar has holes?? I'm about half a carton short of a 6 pack when it comes to melting so any ideas you have would definitely help . I've tried super heating the mold , vibrating the mold , having a flame on the mold and theres always holes even when its clean copper?? anyway buddy take care talk soon.👍😁
Sounds like a stupid advice, but did you try shaking the bubbles of while its still hot?

Congratulations and thank you for all your hard work and keeping us educated on how to not let anything go to waste.
I remember watching you back when you had 100,000 and you really deserve more than 1 million. You almost made me fail a couple of classes because of your addicting melts 😂😂. Cheers from Texas!
Jeez, you really put a lot of work into making these videos. Thank you for making this for us. Many congratulations on your UA-cam awards, they took their time but you really deserve them. Enjoy your beers and dogs and hi to your family.
Oh nice! I was hoping for something to watch along with my midnight snack
Me too!
Woo! Friday! Been watching your older stuff eagerly awaiting the new upload. Last one I watched you asked what people enjoyed. It’s all of it, especially how your humor is portrayed without any talking whatsoever!
Whoever did the brickwork on your driveway is a real pro. Every week I marvel at how neat and tidy it is.
Yay!! Been waiting all week for this
Congratulations 🎉👏 been watching your videos since a long time, quite addictive. Waiting fr the fridays to arrive.
Love from India
I too in tamil
The ice melt and smash on the copper bar was perfection, so satisfying. The mirror finish on the aluminum was also perfect!
Thanks for bringing us along for the ride,, keep being awesome!
Congrats on 1M!! Long time viewer happy to see all your hard work recognized. 8-)
Thanks for showing all your mistakes and obstacles brother! Showing you make mistakes and having to remelt gave me the confidence to just try it. Now I’m melting metal in Arizona, USA because of you aha. Made 5 copper bars and had to remelt my aluminum and thought “it’s a learning process and sometimes it happens,” Thanks man and stay safe out there!
This man is on a mission! May the stack only increase in size. All worship the big stack.
I need to get back into melting. I have piles of scrap in my basement, and I even bought myself a new foundry after the one I made by hand actually began melting on me after so many years of use. You keep inspiring me to get back into it, and I really need to follow through and just do it.
I for one can’t wait to see what he does with his one million subscribers award from UA-cam
Переплавит все вместе. 😀😀😀
Congratulations Bigstack! Im always watching your good work. Cheers from Brazil.

THANK YOU for all your content! Great video as usual. The dogs are the best!
OUTSTANDING! I think the pups were as excited as you are proud. Great accomplishment. Love from the Great Lakes in the 🇺🇸
The coffee grounds make great fertilizer. I always give my mom all my composted ones to use on her garden. The composted coffee grounds give the plants a nice nitrogen boost.
Also, all those copper pipes. I wish I could find more, as I've been using them to make my ham radio antennas. Once cleaned, they make the best antennas. But, I cannot find them often so I don't have very many. Just a great 2m band dipole, 70cm band dipole, and a 2m band yagi. That is not much.
That makes so much sense. I'm just an SDR lurker, and I've been using speaker wire and a balun to try to listen in on the world. I bet a copper pipe dipole would be awesome for listening in on the civil aviation band.
@@andie_pants Can't you just listen to that stuff on the internet? They have scanner apps and weather radio. Why not ham radio?
@@VenomStryker I got nothing to say, honestly. But it's fun as hell listening in on fire/ems and police. Not all precincts are online. And it's especially fun to listen in on not just local ham repeaters but also the HF hams.
@Joe Mama I don't know since I'm one of the people who like to reuse things. I doubt it would make much difference. Many ham radio operators have made antennas out of recycled materials such as christmas lights and even gutters. There is a guy on YT named Josh Nash that is famous in the field for his tape measure antenna which he used to contact the ISS.
@@andie_pants All I can say is yikes to how much pipe you'll need for the HF bands if that is your goal. It's great for the VHF/UHF bands. Before I got my ham license (though I don't transmit on the HF bands even though I have my general license), I did SWL which I made the antenna from used vacuum sweeper wire. It picks up the signals well enough. I haven't measure the SWR on it since I don't have a tuner and I don't transmit on it, but I imagine it would be like 9:1 or something like that.
This was pretty awesome. Congratulations on your milestone. Cheers! ✌️
I have been watching your channel for quite some time now and I have never seen a bad video from you ! Congrats on the 1 million subscribers !
Congrats man. Keep up your awesome content. Your the original and the best. Thanks for everything!
Nice, just got home from working 13 hours and while I eat I can watch this.
Grats on 1MILLI
On the letter from UA-cam: "They come together to be ispired by your unique voice and vision."
Voice, indeed... 😅
Anyway, congrats for the 1 mil! :)
@Joe Mama yea, i've already checked them, but that was funny... 😅
Beautiful! This is art. Every piece is unique. Good work, every thing is so clean. Congrats for the plaques. Lot of efforts in those.
Congratulations brother on the 1mill! We all appreciate the hard work. Great videos/camera work/patients/pups/attention to detail/non waste/and most of all humor!
It’s a lot more than melting stuff that makes you successful
Ah another fine morning in S/E Michigan USA. As in most fridays as I settle in to watch another awesome BigstackD video as soon as it comes up on my notifications ( about 4:00am) its raining ( this year has been wet and Fridays have been really consistent in having a rain day for some reason ), I have a fresh pot of coffee and am sipping out of my 17oz (.5L) stoneware cup. Temps are down but still higher than normal at 56 degrees ( 13 C ) . A great start to the day, the only issue is leaves on the ground and with the rain I can't do much. Oh well, all I can do is deal with it and wish everyone a great day whether you're at the start or the end it. Take care all!
Go Green
@@nkaltso 1/2 the state will agree with you.
@@TheWabbit I’m also biased my daughter is there now
Morning, neighbor!
@@nkaltso Party!!!! Oh Yeah! And a little school too!
Best channel going for real!..
ok checkmark
Never would have thought to melt these. Great idea and video.
I like how everything gets used. Rain water - Leftover coffee. No waste.
The things he uses to break the ice are so random sometimes… I love it. 👍
Also huge congrats on over 1mil subs!!! 🎉
Agreed. I get a kick out of that all the time. It's a, "was that....a wheelchair😆😆?" Kinda vibe Hahaha
Great melt! One thing that popped into my mind while you were opening the beer bottle was you should melt something and make your own bottle opener. After all, you always drink a beer after every melt, why not open the beer WITH your melt? Just a thought I had. In any case, I have been watching you for a long time now and every melt is great! I’m looking forward to you finally getting to one tonne! Keep being you! See you next video!
Great idea
Maybe make it out of melted bottle caps?
@@IFailAtUsernames19 YES
Aluminium might not be strong enough
Congrats from the uk bigstackD been watching for over 2 years now every week can’t wait for the notification you defo deserve it 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼😎😎😎🔥🔥
Thank you for another great video, congratulations on your one million UA-cam. I look forward and watch every one. Love seeing the boys.
“There’s so much slag in this crucible”
Yeah mate. There are a lot of em lol
Hahaha lol
@@andymanaus1077 Yh we didn’t ask. (Plus I already knew that)
great video. I experience about the same degradation when I melt aluminum cans. side note : the coffee grounds (grinds?) are an excellent nitrogen source. just let them dry and spread them over the lawn (garden?) and it will feed the grass. just ask Self Sufficient Me.
It's the best thing I've seen. You are such an inspiration.
Congrats to the one million. You always have great content.
I love that he has his own custom coke bottles
You noticed that as well. Further along you see a coke carton. 1 million subscribers, time to push for sponsorship
You smashing the ice is always satisfying to me for some reason. I wonder, might you do a compliation of all the ice block smashes you've done over the course of your videos that you've uploaded for all the various melts and whatnot?
Piggy back on your comment it’s always great cause you never know what is getting thrown
Or when exactly it will get thrown. I watched before and he forgot. I was like damn I got to wait another for him to smash ice.
That might be a 3-hour long video by itself.
una recopilación a ritmo de alguna pista musical, buena idea
Maybe you´re the reincarnation of a Titanic passenger...
I am so happy you got the milestone.. I've been following for a long time. Congrats to all your hard work.
Love watching your videos!!
Love watching your little puppies lounging around the house!!!👍👍🥰🇺🇸😆
Anyone remember when Bigstack would use prop money to like his forges and people would get so upset thinking its real money 😂
Hell to the yes. I really want him to bring that back, it was the most striking thing for me in the first video of his I ever saw. ;-) And making pearl-clutchers buttmad is always a good thing.

Congratulations on 1 Million, Really love watching your videos. I appreciate the work and care you put into the channel. Still cant help but try and find peeks of what you look like, and I thought I had one in the shiny aluminum bar, but cant make it out. I guess the mystery makes it fun too, but i think the ultimate win would be to have you and AvE show faces in a video together. Either way, a big "Cheers Mate" from Pennsylvania, USA.
every week since forever. thanks for the content. look forward to it.
Before my wife fell into the mess of drugs and alcohol, we use to watch your new video every week. Been hard to watch you since that day, not that my few views make that big of a difference, but thank you for the content.
Set a good example, love her, and don't give up!
@@sand3882 I haven't given up.
Lmfao
"I can't melt this..." that one got me lol xD once again congratulations on 1mil subs :) can't wait for more awensome content :D btw any idea of what you gonna melt to celebrate 1tone ? :D
Hey D...I love the way the bars look after you polish and stamp them. Congratulations again on your million subs! I knew you could do it and you rightly deserve it!👍👍👍💙✌
Cheers Susan 😁
This channel is greatness. Been a fan for awhile. Mad respect for the content 🙌🏼

Jokes aside, looking good!

Strong work. I appreciate your level of dedication.
Congrats on a million, I'm glad to see it! Love your channel by the way, I've been a subscriber for about 2 years now (or maybe a bit longer).
I like how "The Stack" requires more as if it's alive and is demanding blocks of metal to keep it calm
Is the target number the required weight to free your soul
you should collect all of your beer caps and tabs and melt them.
There steel
Beer caps are steel, unable to melt in a forge can like this one and difficult to cast
@@Real_Donald_Trump oh, what about the tabs?
@@yuritarted3976 can still the tabs right?
@@cameronclack6148 tabs are aluminium but he already melts those with the cans and not separately
love your videos, they make for good relaxing content playing in the background
Congratulations on the milestone. I love the videos and obviously so do many others. Keep up the awesome work.
That’s amazing! Congratulations on the plaque!
What happens if you run into material that’s a mix of different metal types? How would you know what kind it is, and how would you mark it before adding it to your hoard?
I don’t think he’s ever worked with obscure alloys besides brass and stuff but he’d probably just use those letters to hammer on that it’s an alloy
the great question:
What are the shelves that hold the ingots made of?
Congrats! You deserve it! Love the mirror finish on the aluminium bar
fantastic shop. Fantastic work. Love the end result.
I feel like this whole thing could have been a lot easier and faster with a shredder :D
What happens when you hit your target? Do you sell the stash, or melt into an enormous ingot?
Maybe some regular show stuff will go down and the ingot lord will be summoned.
I'd buy a few of the bricks and coins. NGL.
imagine that, a one ton of weirdly alloyed cube, i'd love to see it
I hope he sells off or gives away ~1/4th of it and just keeps going 😎
He should sell it all and use the money to buy some weird and awesome scrap
Congrats Brotha !! It's been MY/OUR great pleasure watching you from your onset clear to the present now and eagerly awaiting seeing you hit you 1 TON goal ultimately of which you're sure getting pretty damn close my friend!!! Now slightly over 3/4 there, guaranteed you'll be hitting that well before you know it !!! CHEERS !!!
You deserve that "UA-cam awards "
Is really nice what you are doing.
Love melting stuff. All the best from England 🇬🇧
Love your videos!!!
It's really irritating to me that it took such effort to clean the pods out. We really shouldn't be using single-use aluminum packaging like this :(
Better than single use plastic
@@planejet42 You can send the aluminum to be recycled unlike the plastic.
Those coffee pods are pretty wastefull, good to see them go to at least something, im pretty sure most people don't even recycle them
The pods I buy are all made of plastic, very wasteful.
I look forward to the weekends again...not because I get two days off work, but I know that before I lay my head down and say my nightly prayers (for you and all your subscribers), I get a needed disconnect from the world - I watch you create art from some of the most non-conforming items, and I get to see the lads. I doubt that I reach the heights you have attained...not just subscribers, but in knowledge and ability. For these things that you provide, I am eternally greatful.
Congrats from France 🇫🇷 ! Your videos are so satisfying and relaxing bro !
The amount of metal you got just from some coffee pods, makes you wonder, when people constantly throw away all these single use food packages, aluminium foil, plastics, companies the recycle trash and turn it back into resources must be making a ton of money out of things people throw away.
Nope. Overheads, food residues and the intimate bonding of differing materials make recycling of food packaging an almost pointless exercise. Plastic isn't as recyclable as people like to believe. Aluminium packaging has a layer of plastic bonded to it, making it impossible to recycle the plastic and as you saw, the aluminium recovered from melting was a mere 26% of the starting weight. The recycling value of the ingot the BigstackD made is about AU$0.80 and he burned more than that just in gas.
In short, the council recycling of material is a big con job to make residents think they're doing something for the environment. In many areas, the "recycling bin" contents go straight into landfills.
Ive been watching you for qbout two years and i dont think i will ever stop😂
Congratulations brother, great channel! I've been a fan for quite awhile now 👍 The boys are a great touch to the videos always 😁
Very labour-intensive and very impressive! Go, Aussie!! 🇦🇺
Awesome video friend! Thanks for sharing!
You must be a saint with that kind of patience. Cleaning all those pods one by one!
Congrats on a million!! You definitely deserve it!
Congratulations!
you've been making a very good videos!
Thanks a lot!
