Science Chilli Tasting 2

Hola Como Estas Amazing Readers


Today I'm going to be making a blog post of CHILLI TASTING IN SCIENCE

 Aim: To see which is the best way to cool down the hot chilli taste in your mouth when eating chilli.

Hypothesis: I think that that by using Milk I will be able to remove the hot chilli taste from my mouth.

Equipment:

  1. Milk
  2. Water
  3. Coca Cola
  4. Tasting
  5. Chilli
Method:

  1. You will work in groups of three for this experiment. Each person in the group will use on of the drinks with the chilli. You will then swap results in your group so that everyone has the same results.
  2. Each member of the group needs to have their own tasting cup. This will be used for putting the different liquids in as we cool off the chilli in our mouths.
  3. Place a piece of chilli in your mouth.
  4. You will drink the liquid that you have in your cup. As you do this you will complete a results chart.

Chilli Tasting Results

Record : Yes or No


Immediately

After 3 minutes

Milk

Good/help

Better after

Water

Did Nothing 

The Same 

Coca Cola

It was the same

A Little better but still kinda hot

Summary and Results: 
The Milk did not work immediately. After 3 minutes it had a small effect.
The Coke had a small effect Immediately. Coke had no effect after 3 minutes.
The Water did not work immediately. The water did not stop the chilli after 3 minutes.

Conclusion

Milk could be a solution when eating spicy foods -- literally. That's because milk helps your mouth handle capsaicin, an oily chemical compound in chilli peppers. Capsaicin binds to a receptor in the tongue and creates a burning sensation. ... Casein protein found in milk can also bind to the capsaicin and wash it away.
