5 Tips In Choosing The Best Cream Whipper

Since the moment cream whippers and soda chargers were introduced in the
market, a lot of professional chefs and bartenders found this to be a very useful
tool in the kitchen. It does save one more time, effort and money after all.

There are several brands in the market today. You may encounter difficulties in
deciding on a good product. Here are some tips in choosing the best cream charger
or soda charger.

Choose Quality over Low-Price

Don't go for the cheapest brand. You may be disappointed with the quality of the
hardware of some $10 products. Some complained about the screw caps or nozzle
triggers malfunctioning as soon as they use it. Even if it is cheap, you will still be
wasting money to get yourself a new one. But don't disregard the inexpensive ones
immediately. Some companies have made sure that their products are of good
quality despite their low prices. Make sure also that the product you are getting is
government-approved.

Professional Brands Do Last Longer

Even if you are just using the cream whipper at home, you still want to have the
best results. Professional chefs and bartenders would choose the best brand and so
should you. Remember that they use this gadget more often in a day than you
would in a month. Although these brands would probably cost more, you can be
sure to get real carbonated drinks and richly whipped cream every single time.

Versatility is Important
There are some brands which features flavored Nitrous Oxide. This will only work if
you plan to make banana or strawberry-flavored desserts all the time. These kinds
of cream whippers will limit your creativity in the kitchen. If you get the simpler
version, the possibilities will be endless. Besides, you can always add essences of
certain flavors that you want like vanilla or caramel anytime you want to.

Check the Gas Chambers

Most products already offer two Nitrous Oxide Chambers when you buy a set.
Some may last a few days depending on how often you use them. Ask the salesman
about this or better yet, read the reviews. You can always get extra gas cartridges
when you need extra. A box of twenty-four may cost $15 or more. Take note that
for cream whippers, you need Nitrous Oxide. On the other hand, Carbon dioxide
chargers are used for carbonated drinks.

Size Matters

Cream whippers and soda chargers come in different shapes and sizes. Make sure
that you get what you think you may need at home. If you have a small family,
maybe half a liter would be enough. If you plan to serve drinks in a party, you will
need a bigger canister. Maybe you will have to buy two, even.

If you are planning to get one of these amazing must-haves in the kitchen, you need
to learn these important things. You can ask a friend for tips or the chef or
bartender of a local restaurant for other tips. Reading reviews on the net will also
help you decide.
