Step 2 – Pour 1/2 cup hydrogen peroxide into the empty bottle.
You’ll see here that we have two bottles. The bottle pictured on
the left is being filled with 3% hydrogen peroxide while the bottle
pictured on the right is filled with 6% hydrogen peroxide.
Step 3 – Add a few drops of food colouring into the bottle. Take a
moment to make a few observations. What happened when you
added the drops of food colouring?
Note: This step is optional, but adding the colour adds a fun
element to the experiment. You’ll see that we used a different
colour of food colouring for each bottle.
Step 4 – Next, add a squirt of dish soap into the bottle. Again, take
a moment observe what happened. Did adding the dish soap
appear to have any effect on the liquid already in the bottle?
Step 5 – Finally, pour the mixture of water and yeast into the
bottle. Watch carefully and observe what happens.

~ The foam and solution left in the cylinder and all waste
products may be safely disposed of down the drain upon addition
of plenty of water.
