  • I FAILED BUT I LEARNED A LESSON
    I show you guys trying to freeze dry some ice cream but I failed and I really learned a lesson on what to do next time. Watch until the end to see a date night Brandi and I went on to meet up with Granger Smith.

    Says to start the freeze dryer up and let run for 30 mins to get cold, and leave the paper wrapper on them😊 (if the wrapper is plastic they suggest to slice a cut in th he packaging)
    Your a good Daddy Dutch, your girls hearts are going to be filled with so many awesome memories..💜

    Reminds me of the time my great-aunt Bee told the story of when her parents were gone for the week and her boyfreind who became my great-uncle Aubry came by. They made rootbeer and bottled it a little too soon and it exploded all over the kitchen. They had stored it under the kitchen table. She said that it was the worse mess ever. But great-uncle Aubry stayed and helped to clean the whole kitchen up. Great-aunt Bee said that there was even rootbeer on the ceiling.

    You can buy several extra toilet bowl brushes at the dollar store and hang them up near the waterers. It's easy to scrub and brush out all the dirt, poop, algae, and debris from inside and out.

      Ima survivor donkey and animal sanctuary has a male turkey. They have had him a year. He was rescued around his wife's birthday. He does change colors all the time. They tried to get him 3 females one left another turned out to be a male. Him and the other female live over at his dad's house now. They rescued a female meat turkey at Christmas but sadly she passed away a couple weeks ago.

    I’m thinking the pigs are still getting shocked by the fence.
    It bows out towards them and doesn’t leave much room for them to get near the nipple.
    Use a pole to help pull it back away from the nipple and they may start drinking more from it.

  • @helmuthschultes9243
    @helmuthschultes9243 3 роки тому

    Icecream is foamed frozen milk and cream, so in vacuum it will massively expand unless very hard frozen before pressure decreases. As moisture is removed the expanded cream and milk extra foamed will collapse leaving effectively very messy milk powder. Leaving in sealed package will prevent the initial expansion till the package pops while very hard frozen to desicate. I wouuld however not think it very impressive in dry state and not be suited to rehydration as the natural foamed frozen icecream state is unlikely to properly reform, maybe rehydration, still in original pckage, somewhat below 32 degF, 0 degC might sort of give so semblance of icecream.
    I would still rather rehydrate fruits, mix with cream and milk, flavours and make new icecream.
