Turning plastic gloves into hot sauce is something that I've been wanting to do since I started this channel. I never attempted it though because I knew that it was going to be the longest and hardest project I've ever worked on. However, one day I randomly decided that I was ready and I just got started on it...

Vanillin amine hydrochloride (C8H9NO2 · HCl) can be synthesized through the reaction of vanillin and ammonia, followed by treatment with hydrochloric acid (HCl). The process involves several steps, but overall it is a relatively safe and straightforward procedure. Here's a detailed recipe for producing vanillin
amine hydrochloride:
1. Obtain necessary materials:
- Vanillin (C8H8O3)
- Ammonia solution (NH4OH, 25% w/w)
- Hydrochloric acid (HCl, 37% w/w)
- Methanol (CH3OH)
- Ethyl acetate (C4H8O2)
- Two strong, airtight containers with stoppers
- Three beakers or round-bottomed flasks of appropriate size (e.g., 250 mL or larger)
- Magnetic stirrer and stir bars
- Distilled water
- Ice
- Filter paper and vacuum filtration apparatus
- Rotary evaporator or other suitable method for solvent removal
2. Prepare a solution of vanillin in methanol:
a. Measure out 50 grams of vanillin and place it in a beaker or round-bottomed flask.
b. Add 150 mL of methanol to the beaker or flask, stirring until all the solid has dissolved.
c. Attach a magnetic stir bar to the beaker or flask and stir the solution at moderate speed.
3. React vanillin with ammonia:
a. Slowly add 50 mL of ammonia solution (25% w/w) to the vanillin-methanol solution while stirring. The mixture will become cloudy and start to release gas as it reacts.
b. Continue stirring the mixture for several minutes, allowing the reaction to complete.
c. Carefully pour the resulting solution into a second beaker or flask, using filter paper or a separatory funnel to remove any solid residues.
4. Convert vanillin amine to hydrochloride salt:
a. Add 50 mL of hydrochloric acid (37% w/w) to the filtered solution, stirring until it has mixed thoroughly. The mixture will become cloudy and may release gas as it reacts.
b. Continue stirring for several minutes, allowing the reaction to complete.
c. Carefully pour the resulting solution into a third beaker or flask, using filter paper or a separatory funnel to remove any solid residues.
5. Purify vanillin amine hydrochloride:
a. Wash the filtered solid with distilled water, stirring until it has dissolved and then filtering again. Repeat this process several times to ensure that all impurities have been removed.
b. Carefully remove any residual solvent using a rotary evaporator or other suitable method.
c. Dry the purified vanillin amine hydrochloride in an oven at approximately 60°C for several hours, until it has reached constant weight.

Chem is just magic I swear
I undertook high school chemistry so many of the terms used like “reagents” and “reduced” I understand what these mean, but I possess none of the skill in being able to apply it. Think of him as a handyman looking at a problem and deciding what tools to use. It’s a very similar thing except he’s thinking of which reagents and equipment he might use to get the result that he wants. This is some serious skill on display here.
Literally. The only things I know are the separator funnel, distillation and some elements. Why are they being used? What is their purpose? I have no idea
ME TOO
SO ON POINT
Just a cautious FYI for anyone making their own hot sauce: I didn't see Nile add any vinegar at the end (although there was some in the peppers). Botulonium toxin grows in anerobic environments greater than 4.7pH, and is commonly detected when people improperly preserving things like chopped garlic in oil. I don't imagine this sauce would be particularly safe to consume after a couple of weeks unless refrigerated. Also, be sure to sterilise whatever bottle you use!
I don't think most viewers have the time, money, equipment or patience to use this video as a tutorial to make their own hot sauce.
Still, this is good advice.

Doing TLC analysis once in a while would be an even cheaper game changer 😁
Next video he adds a full GC-MS to his setup
imagine not being able to get vanilla sugar for your baking project because local chemist needed all of them for hot sauce 💀
“i coulda sworn they were there yesterday”
What's even better is that the store probably started stocking up on it thinking "man, I'm not sure why people are buying so many of these but we need to make sure we have them in stock" only for them to just start piling up when he finished his video.
@@patches710 Store: "But sir, we ordered a whole pallet of these gloves and also a pallet of vanilla sugar, our metrics showed it's been in high demand lately but nobody's buying any of it. Most people say they've never even heard of vanilla sugar.."
Nile: "Sorry guys, I have all the grape soda pop and hot sauce that I need. You'll have to discount it or give it away at cost, that's all I ever needed of either one for the rest of my whole life. Besides, why did you get a whole pallet of vanilla sugar? Nobody even uses that stuff, I extracted a few grams of vanillan powder from 20-40lbs of vanilla sugar you guys charge an arm and a leg for, and then threw all the sugar all away. Who's even heard of vanilla sugar?? That's a _you_ problem."
@@dukeofthedance8062 I can just see the stocking manager getting fired over this then coming across those two videos years later and being like "holy shit, this man cost me my job" then he goes back to his boss and shows him and he's just like "yea, sure, you probably had your friend make these"
he needed the vanilla sugar to turn plastic gloves intro hot sauce. makes it more confusing
I just looked up the differences between capsaicin and nordihydrocapsaicin, and I was not expecting them to be so similar. One double bond in capsaicin is a single bond in ndhc, and capsaicin's functional group is one carbon shorter. And for that, ndhc is about half as spicy. Wild the way plants make so many similar compounds that do nearly the same things.
That has to be trolling buying vanilla sugar instead of artificial vanilla extract right next to it great subtle work
I'm not a professional chemist, but I know that trying to make one chemical out of another just because they look sort of similar is something only a crazy person, or at least someone with way too much time on their hands, would do. Thank you, Nigel, for being the only mad scientist bold enough to do reactions like this and recording it for all of us to see.
Essentially alchemy, but less safe
@@marcosdarcy2221 essentially alchemy but real
But... that's how you make most chemicals both in lab and industrially. You look for a cheap, available precursor that looks chemically similar to the target molecule, then change a few functional groups and voila.
I will never again complain about moon logic recipes in video games when plastic gloves + vanilla = essence of spiciness is a real thing. nile, as ever, you're a man of focus, commitment, and sheer fucking will.
Any sufficiently advanced science is indistinguishable from magic.
Great technique. PhD chemist
Or how the MineChem mod decided “hey, you know netherwart? Yeah, it’s actually cocaine hydrochloride.”
(The HCl/hydrochloride (salts?) of drugs are to make them more soluble in the polar solvent of water, and thus also stomach acid.)
@@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721
Pretty much. Magic is just science you don't understand
He is an irl john wick
His smile could move mountains ❤
18:44 I love this part idk why 😭
if nilered ever comes on hot ones, he needs to bring this with him
He should synthesize this again specifically for the last dab. If he made a large enough batch, I think Sean might be willing to sell a few of the bottles as limited releases, so Nigel could get some extra funding outside of Patreon!
And spice it up even more
I think it's worth noting that First We Feast has less than three times as many subscribers as NileRed. I think NileRed deserves huge credit for building up such a huge following without having big name guests like Gordon Ramsey and Salma Hayek. People come here for the chemistry, but stay for the Nigel.
@@acartwright10 well, did you hear what he said in the video? this was an extremely long and arduous process that took him several months (and years to actually get to it) just for enough of the chemical for 2 bottles of hot sauce. i don't he can just "whip up some more"
@@acartwright10 While that would be really cool, selling it poses a mountain of legal obstacles.
I love how he goes through 300 steps to make the spicy chemical, but can't be bothered to roast peppers.
Chemistry is easier than cooking I guess
😂😂😂 why is this true?
@@idontknowyet2875 Its a science thing. Its the wow factor. Or its our nerdness. You choose
thats the point of the video and I love it
That’s not science lol
I love the mixture of emotions going on in Nigel as he "confirmed" it was indeed spicy. lol You can see that moment in his eyes where he goes, "Oh, oh no.. it's.. it's not stopping.. is this going to be a problem?? *HIC* Oh fu---".
Uniroically the best TH-camr for background noise while gaming
Random shopper: "do you need all that vanilla sugar?"
Nile: "yes im making hot sauce!"
I love how chemistry is viewed as this super immaculate, careful and elegant work, and then we got Nile, saying "I decided to dump in a whole bunch." "The color wasn't really what I was expecting, so I decided to pour in 100ml of concentrated nitric acid." 💀💀
Gut feeling is the pinnacle of science.
Chaos element required to breach new frontiers in science
Well he did say that he can't cook.
You would be suprised but this is chemistry exactly.
Let me present how did it look in my lab
-oh fuck it's not doing anything.
-What do you mean it doesn't, we did everything right.. Yep, it didn't do anything
-..fucking hell..
-like right??
-let's add.. What was there?
-no idea
-ok, I am adding.. Let's say.. That will be good
-IT CHANGED COLORS
-WE ARE GENIUSES
OUR TEACHER
-IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE BLUE, NOT RED, THE FUCK YOU DID
Nah this is exactly organic chemistry. “It’s supposed to be how much? Two mLs? Eh… a pipette holds somewhere between 1 and 3 mLs, just add a pipette full. Maybe a little more than a pipette full. Yeah, good enough.”
“OH SHIT ITS ANGRY! IS IT SUPPOSED TO DO THAT?! WHY WOULDNT YOU WARN US ABOUT THAT!”
It was exactly how it was supposed to end!
I love it - I love your experiments.
Can't stop watching your videos. Learning a lot. Thanks friend.
