Underated comment!
underrated
Yeah lmao
If you look at the way actual record are manufactured, You'll notice that the vinyl is in a semi solid melted puck state before it is "pressed" into the plate. Maybe this is something you can think about. Getting the candy to a state where it is a bit hard but still soft enough to be pressed into the mold to get the imprint instead of trying to pour it on in a hot liquid state.
Joey Cole that might work if he wasn’t using the silicone as a indent for the grooves. if he applied pressure on it, it wouldn’t just squish the candy but it would also squish the silicone
The Tourist he could use a hardening substance as to get a hard mold
Honestly I think that's an amazing idea
I also think that the candy might not bubble as much of the silicone were warmed up instead of cooled down
The candy's bubbling reaction is because of a sudden drop of temperature causing the air inside to expand
That's some pretty 'sweet' music
I'll show myself out
Wait! We need more puns!
Some record breaking candy eh
BU DUM CRASHHH
Try adding cream of tartar to the candy, this often reduces bubbles and is a technique used in hollywood style candy glass.
But can you eat it tho?
@@allmightylordmaurice6129 Most likely.

Sad
Engineering tech student here 😁: Hypothesis:
1. Do everything you did
2. But, Pour the candy into the vacuum chamber
3. Put the chamber on low heat to keep candy warm
4. Apply negative pressure while decreasing the heat slowly. Removes bubbles.
5. When done, Use oven-mits to pour candy onto the cold mold like you had it.
(And wash the chamber by adding half a gallon of water and rewarming)
the bubbles form when it cools. :|
Sandra Burtner 😯. I thought it comes from heat and breaking water molecules. 🤔💭 this changes everything
Sandra Burtner Got it 💡 Get a bigger vacuum and put the mold AND candy inside. Boom 😁😁
@@firstlast9813 my thought exactly. Larger vacuum chamber, keep the mold and candy under vacuum while it cools
@@bradd.1339 I was about to agree, but wouldn't it mess the record up? The way it usually pulls the liquids up makes me think it might make more of a mess and even end up outside of the mold.
Seeing this makes me wonder....
Glass records...
Yep, they're totally a thing👍🏽.

It's been done in the past, but they're VERY hard to make.
Actually it has the same method for making a record but in glass record u need a harder and much stronger solid to replace the needle
@@marknalang7552 Most record players use a small industrial diamond or sapphire as a needle... I dont know where you would get anything stronger or more solid then that lol

Have you tried with sugar glass?
Side note: Heat the mold up so the candy cools more slowly and doesn't crack/warp
Smart boi
Sugar glass is literally what he just made... What he needs to use is sugar glass made with sorbitol not fructose.
smart brainan
I was going to say just that... Also, the bubbles might come from some humidity on the mold, heating it should help removing it.
@@whydidilazeryou-_-1235 anyone that uses boi should be shot in the face
Could you pour the candy into the mould while it's in a pressure chamber, and let it cool at a high pressure? I'd recommend making everything hot so that it cools slowly.
Seems like the first thing I'd do
The pressure chamber would have to be large enough to fully accommodate the mold. The bigger issue you'd run into with that would be the bubbles in the silicone. For bench-cure castings, bubbles in silicone don't matter, but for pressure chamber castings, those internal bubbles will condense and cause the mold surface to pull down into that newly formed cavity, resulting in spikes on the surface of your casting
A vacuum chamber would work better
Oh didn't think of that
@@NFTI Vinyl singles are 7" in diameter, they would be perfect. Pressure chamber is 100% the solution!

Please buy an entry technics instead it’s worth the price
Maybe put the mold on a tray and just drop the tray a couple of times once you've filled the mold to see if the percussive force can cause formed bubbles to rise to the surface? Also I think excessive cracking means something went wrong with the temperature.
Also, next round I'd love to see you tossing dud records against a wall, just shattering them, maybe just set up a tarp to contain the mess.
try using isomalt- it melts quicker and there’s less need for stirring while melting down which would reduce air bubbles. It also is perfectly clear so you won’t get that amber color.
They used isomalt on another project, but that was a Calli lead project.
A hard candy recipe that doesn't use corn syrup also should work

I would use a DJ record
Such as a single with house or techno on it
The groves are deeper and more spread out

@@branfordfamilies8282 that's true
Theoretical fix idea for removing bubbles during casting.
Step 1: Build a vacuum chamber large enough to house the silicone mold.
Step 2: ...you see where I'm going with this.
There might be some engineering issues that come up, such as heat transfer in a (near) vacuum, the candy sticking to the vacuum chamber walls and breaking off through the new record during retrieval, or even just technical challenges building a new chamber. Even if it doesn't work completely, it should work at least a bit to remove bubbles. Probably line the walls with wax paper or grease them in some way to prevent the candy from sticking and potentially ruining the test. Straight box or cylinder with no neck to the lip, possibly an acrylic tube if you could get one that's crazy large, or even a five gallon bucket; use your best judgement, I have faith.
I figure that if you can get it to work well enough it would make for a pretty great episode, especially if you do run into problems but pull through in the end; Hero's Journey and all that.
Best of luck.
The guys over at lofty pursuits could probably help you out on this one.
This is an EXCELLENT idea! If anyone can figure this out, it's Greg.
GREG
Great idea!!
When I make candy like that I notice that most of the bubbles sit on the bottom. Maybe you could do it not by casting but as an imprint. Push the copy onto the candy to leave a print on top
Crosley: The record player you use when you want to destroy our records.
Yeah, that left a bad taste in my mouth.
Especially at 45rpm..
Granted, I wouldn't be thinking about playing a hard candy disk on my system anyway.
It looks like he was using it wrong for a record of that size. It has a small little adapter you're supposed to put on the middle piece under the record for the larger records like he seemed to be using. And I say this owning one of these players
Chance Shadow the piece is for a 45rpm records wtf are you talking about, it's so that they can be played on a standard size player tf
Or when your records might destroy the player.
When he plays the candy record:
Me: Do I hear boss music?

Hopefromhome!
nah, he help entertaining people
What if you laid the candy on a smooth surface, let it cool just enough to be kind of a taffy consistency, then put the mold on top and press it into the grooves.
Just an idea.
Smart
Wouldn’t that just trap the air in between the candy and silicone and cause bubbles?
That's more or less how vinyl records are produced; the vinyl is pressed onto a heated metal stamp that has negatives of the grooves then cooled to make a record. But, for it to work, the press has to push the vinyl onto the metal stamp with something like 150 pounds of force.
Something tells me Nate's technique is never going to work because the silicone is too soft, the candy is too brittle and therefore he can never apply enough force to either to get a proper molding that will play.
There is another lesser used technique that uses a vacuum rather than pressure that might work better, but I don't think the hard candy is at all the correct medium. A softer candy that is closer to the tensile and flexible properties of vinyl might be better, something like caramel or chocolate maybe.
@@Dargonhuman We need to get this to him, right now, personally.
Science!
Composites approach (If not already mentioned):
Consider placing mold after doing what you did in a vacuum bag rather than a container. Check your cast of candy from the vacuum container in the next day or so. Only thought is having a think layer, possibly a type of adhesive or non-binding chemical that the sucrose would not stick itself to the vacuum bag. This vacuum bag may take out bubbles. Somewhat going off of First and Last guy down below. This may help.
10:24 sounds like u go to Chuck E. Cheese and put your tickets into the ticket muncher
Try playing music with just the mold, to see what the music sounds like if it’s inverted
It wouldn't sound like anything since the music is originally recorded in the grooves, which become the top of the walls in the mold; so the grooves in the mold are blank (like the top of the walls in the record) and not an inversion of the recording.
YES
@@Merrihootaitia yeah it would be microscopic mountains to the needle
And the mold is soft and wouldn't really do much even if the "grooves" weren't facing upwards and being ridges. It would probably sound like trying to play the rubber disc that you would normally put the record onto that most record players have on the turntable
I'm like that disc: my grooves are too intense
Nice 👍🏼
👏nice
K
👌 eciN
The grooves weren't "intense" enough so the needle kept falling off the track.
I have an idea: If the Silikone is high temperature stable just take the silicone mold as a THE POT for cooking the candy mix to its temperature. Make side walls to it, so it becomes an pot or pan and heat it all in the oven to its finished temperature and then just let it cool slowly.
Couple of ideas for you. Using a finer grade of sugar like powdered sugar. Using gelatin in the candy making process. Using a syrup that is fluid at room temp but will harden when left to set (maple syrup/honey) If it sets too slowly perhaps use corn starch to thicken slightly.
Also maybe make a "Gummy" record instead of a hard candy version.
Ahhhhh I got! Put some alcohol (ethanol, vodka, everclear, whatever) down on the surface of the mold first to displace the air in the tracks. Then pour the candy right through it.
I don't think water would work because it would semi dissolve the candy, where alcohol should evaporate. May need to try it small scale to make sure it doesn't bubble worse.
There might be an unforeseen chemical reaction between the candy and alcohol at worst, but I'm wondering if the warm candy would evaporate the alcohol so fast it creates bubbles that way either.
all of those would cool the sugar instantly, see my solution ^
@@plintu3 for the small volume of liquid we're talking about, like 1/8 1/16 inch thick layer, with 10-100 times the volume of hot sugar (which has a much higher thermal mass) the cooling effect will be minimal.
The object of the alcohol or water is to fill the micro spaces in the tracks that air can be trapped.
oh yeah this is big brain time
You should try 78' rpm records, the grooves are much larger
Before watching the video, my prediction is: yes, absolutely. It won't be as robust as Unbreakable Vinylite, but it will be better than chocolate.
Few tips and tricks I've learned with resin and silicone, using a plastic fork for mixing helps with blending better. For the final casting, I've found a high pour method helps with bubbling, [not sure how that would work with candy, but it helps with resin bubbles]/

Groove! There's a GROOVE singular on each side of a record! Monty Python released an album in the 70s with 2 grooves on the B side, but for all the songs to play you need ONE groove per side of any vinyl!
Your molding skills and theories are quite meticulous. Very impressing.
I remember watching the OG video and commenting this Idea lol I’m glad it finally got its chance 🤘🤘
maybe keeping in in the oven at temp and slowly lowering it after the bubbles float up alittle?

Heat the silicone to the temperature of the candy before you dump it on. This should reduce the amount of air bubbles forming
This is so pleasing and would cause no disappointment at all even if the record doesn't work, you could just eat it right away
Tkor: Kinda clear
Silicon company: SORTA clear

Yeeeeees
Try melting the candy,pour it on the silicone room temp silicone ....... here's what will help,take a heat gun reheat an let cool,and repeat once more, that'll give enough of a break to the surface tension to let the bubbles up. Hope that helps 😁👍
My Grandfather and I make hard candy. The key is a warm MARBLE block to let the carmelized sugar come to room temperature more slowly. I saw a comment regarding the candy pour inside the vacuum chamber, and using a heated vacuume oven might allow you to regulate the temperature cooling as you also pull -hg
You should make a vaccum chamber around the record when you've poured the silicon already and get the last bubbles out that way
@@Fr_g no
Have you tried freezing the mold before pouring the candy on it? Kinda like how chefs do when they mold chocolate. They melt the chocolate, then pour it on a surface that is very cold. That way the chocolate cools down instantly before it has a chance of bubbling up.
I don’t know how that would work with silicone but it probably wouldn’t work with candy, it would bubble up too intensely and then not set properly

Attitude thank you
He just blabbers about to make the video longer. Like no one cares about how he is pouring the silicone to get rid of the air bubbles right?
I wonder if you could make an inverse sound record by pouring straight onto the record
Probably, I mean the silicone mold is a mirrored image of whatever you're casting. So
So pouring directly on the record would logically/theoretically get the rwcord in reverse.
@@fasdfdsdfs It wouldn't. The "walls" of the groove the needle rides in would become the grooves, and there's no music on that.
@@trevorh8432exactly what I wanted to say...
@@trevorh8432 it would make a interesting thing to see either way like either it works in any way or they just make a record to eat again
my first thought.....curing the candy slowly under vacuum.... if there is a way to use a temperature controlled chamber under vacuum, that may do it.... letting it cool slowly to increase the quality of the molding. Also, you may want to create a better silicone mold under vacuum as well.
Maybe brushing the hot sugar onto a mold with a paintbrush, let it cool and then pour more on top?
i don't know what he's talking about, crosleys just sound that bad anyway xD
Sparks N Zeros yeah
Do freeze drying the worlds largest gummy worm plz
I suggest you place the silicone mould on a rotating turntable. Have a hot-air gun or IR Iamp around so that while & after pouring you could make the candy a tad less viscous.
Rotating will achieve a more even & level spread.
When it comes to removing bubbles, vibration is the method I'm used to seeing. Maybe that would help? Or maybe a centrifuge?
Me: plays candy record
What it plays: *diiiiiabeteesss*
Georgie Qwerty so true
Anne Reardon at How to Cook That did it first, with chocolate.
I know, right! I literally watched it just yesterday. Thought she did another but with candy! Then I realized it was TKOR. 🙈
How about brushing the 1st layer on with a more liquidy version, and when it settles then put more to make it stronger?
Step 1: Make the candy record shape on a flat surface and let it set.
Step 2: Make a raised platform to place the candy record on
Step 3: Heat up the side that the groves are going to be on to make the surface bubble free and liquidy.
Step 4: Place the mold of the record on the candy record while it is liquidy
Step 5: Let it cooldown .
Step 6: Play the record and listen to the sweet music (pun intended).

@Addy Swiftie lover He said that during the video and I thought it was funny, so I put it in a comment.
Maybe using a heat gun to thin the liquid candy just before it pours, or as a tool to get the bubbles out? Interesting experiment! I also echo the suggestion of cream of tartar; a bit of acid in candy production helps with clarity and makes the candy a bit less brittle, therefore it may take the impression a little more easily.
You can use a small kitchen torch to remove the bubbles from candy. The best sugar to use is isomalt. Owner of a cake & confection bakery.

On an anime show called "Dr. Stone" they hand made a glass record and put what they wanted on it. How well would that actually work?
Glass records exist. They are more difficult to record on than vinyl (which is relatively soft). The portrayal in Dr. Stone is plausible but it would be very difficult to do.
@@SuLokify I figured but it would be cool to see them do it though:)
If its thinkable it doable
My boys Connor and Lyle would love to see you make a large scale sour patch kid!!! We love you guys!!!!
I think your idea of heating up the silicone to more closely match the temperature of the candy is correct. Since the candy is quite viscous, it may not have time to conform to the "grooves" properly. Heating the silicone, pouring/spreading, and allowing a slower cooling rate would likely have a better result.
This is what quarantine does to ya.

Collaborate with Lofty Pursuits when retrying this experiment!!
You should use isomalt which melts at a lower temp used for many candy modelling applications and warm up the silicone not hot just warm so that the candy will mould into the grooves doing ti on the angle you used and the type of candy it just rolled over rather than set into them
there was a promotion in the early 1900s that was chocolate records...
Sound recordings are literally the craziest things I can think of.
From acoustic, to electrical, to magnetic, to digital.
Agent Texes to consumable
man, look up explanations of "just intonation", especially that one green one, and artists like sevish if you think sound is crazy. with just intonation, because it uses slightly different frequencies that align in much more crystalline ways, digital sound is sort of disturbingly in-your-face and weird and precise and grating. it's kinda cool and reminds me just how weird sound waves are that you can have these subtle variations in the relative frequencies and it sounds SO strange.
maybe dusting the inside with a fine layer of powdered sugar? The "grooves" in the mold (which end up being the area between grooves of the record) get filled with the powdered sugar, which will melt and harden from the heat of the candy syrup, which still gives you your "hills" between the grooves of the actual record, but keep air from building up in those smaller areas as the candy cools.
Similar idea to how perfectly clean water actually never boils (though it will evaporate) when heated, it needs imperfections for air bubbles to form around.
There was an SCP that spit out random vending machine products from other planes of existence. One of the things was a hard candy record, but it was made of coiled candy thread shaped to make the record grooves.
