How to make Rocket Candy

[baggedandblown]

Whered you get the KNO3 in Australia?

[LinardsHunteR]

@baggedandblown

in almost every garden shop

[BuddytheChimp]

a gas stove... nice

[XIBeefstewIX]

Can I crush this up then use it for the propellant in their how to build a rocket video? Does it work well in powdered form??

[pyroguyman096]

@TheCHUCKY1992 it's bondpics.tk not .com

[66160alex]

 I think mine is done, but I couldn't get Glucose Syrup so I used Honey instead of that.

[jzlACoSTE]

The formula for Sucrose is C12H22O11 just saying

[TheCHUCKY1992]

I went to to bondpics.com and all it did was take to a porn site could someone help me

[wbsnakes]

if u warm the glucose syrup it will make it more runny

[1111mathmaster]

NITROBLASTICIN!



[the1091man]

where can i buy or get glucose syrup ....????

[Candyismylife226]

Whenever I click on these vids, I'm let down. I always think that these peeps are making REAL candy, not just rocket fuel. Rats.

[clone808808]

@Candyismylife226 what does the word "rocket candy" mean to you?!?!?

[Candyismylife226]

@clone808808 Well...it could still be candy...like those round candies called "Rockets"

[clone808808]

@Candyismylife226 I literally didn't know they made that. 

[clone808808]

@Candyismylife226 their also called smarties.

[Candyismylife226]

@clone808808 Well that's what they're called in the U.S.A, but I live in Canada.

[trainz222]

Powder or normal sugar?

[bruceleeking1]

@clone808808 thx alot

[bruceleeking1]

@l0rdsauron i getting more of a burn than a jet pulse

[clone808808]

@bruceleeking1 make a hole through it !

[LIONMAN11111]

YOU ARE WRONG THE SUGAR MUST NOT BE CARAMELIZED

[etwangboy]

Whats the intro song?

[etwangboy]

8:21 " When it looks like KFC, it's Ready!" LMAO

[haveyouseenhim89]

this vid was more annoying than informative

[BannDuH721]

where can we buy the corn syrup??



[TheMosh97]

can i use karo corn syrup ?

[Ruta101official]

why do you use syrup?

[l0rdsauron]

yes

[ConnorXV]

Don't cook at such high temperatures! Caramelising the sugar fucks up the burn rate. Just a side note I seem to get faster burn rates when using lyles golden syrup.

[GoldenPlatinumSTEEL]

Where Exacly Did You Get That "Glucose Syrup"

[l0rdsauron]

Supermarket

[HoeTo101laversc]

what can i use insted of corn syrup

[1990cujo]

heat syrup up fist makes it runny

[thejokeify]

looks like apple suce

[oga1993]

Browning of the sugar just dropped ur ISP from a possible 125 to merely 75 if ur lucky enough

[wranglers10]

His formula for sucrose is wrong. It should be C12H22O11

[byzza4]

whERE CAN I GET pottasium nitrate!!!!!!!!!!!

[gomez6325]

@byzza4 At any chemistry. Also in scholl's lab.

[jtskid]

I heard h2o is very hard to find and very expensive. Try eBay or somewhere like that

[jingoxthefirst]

WATER? WHERE DO I GET H2O?

[737Pilot122]

Ever watch October Sky? LOL

[tobelleys]

WILL IT LIFT A ROCKET IN TO THE AIR THO I THINK NOT ????

[l0rdsauron]

Yea rockets work great with this

[Feuerwerksfreak1]

@l0rdsauron i live in germany and can i use ahorn syrup ? or mix glucose pulver with water and cook it up to syrup?

[Chribbe0502]

@Feuerwerksfreak1 i live in germany too, and i have the same problem: where can i get the glucose syrup or corn syrup?

if you know the answer could you please tell me `?

;)

[Feuerwerksfreak1]

@Chribbe0502 i test it with honey and it works

[Chribbe0502]

@Feuerwerksfreak1 oh okay thanks ;) i will try to get some corn syrup from the DM or Formhaus, and if they dont have some, i will test it with honey too.

[hamsterboy13]

@Feuerwerksfreak1 so you can use honey instead of glucose syrup and still get the same result?! :D

[david1513]

@tobelleys if you add iron oxide to the mix yes 9it will lift a rocket into the air, with out the iron well ive never tryed it but i use sugar rocket mix to power my rockets and i must say it does as good a job as estes rocket motors, as a mater of fact its so good the nozzel size has to be much biger to keep it from catoing 1/2 inch pvc 5 3/2 inch drill size where as estes is 1/8 inch, you will find almost all your high powered rockets use sugar motors, and some use amonum perclorate...

[DarrenBananaramaman]

@david1513 does it matter what type of iron oxide you add?

could you use Black iron oxide?

[david1513]

@DarrenBananaramaman no it doesnt matter the color its still irom oxide, some people like yellow i use red only because its the same red used in the nike hercules missle system's four rocket booster clusters, im not sure if the color has anything to do with the color of smoke exhosted from the motor, but id say maybe it might, ive only got white and black from mine, i think the "green mojive G motors" are useing ether copper or green oxide these are AP motors single use motors,

[MilitiaHQ]

Do you think i could throw a gram or 2 of aluminium powder into the mix? Might make for some nice sparks.

[OFProducciones]

HEY MAN! good tutorial! but i have a question...instead of putting glucose syrup, i can pu somthing else? sorry fir my bad english... i came from argentin... :D

[l0rdsauron]

Sure you can use a good corn syrup of maybe try honey, but im not sure about the honey

[OFProducciones]

@l0rdsauron and what about sugar.. do you recomend it?

[OFProducciones]

@l0rdsauron and what abot sugar?

[SoopaMario1]

@l0rdsauron

Honey works, it has the same chemical equation as glucose

[Rambo1production]

what the hell is that focking ' boink' all the time

[R0XAS100]

does it work with salpeter?

[TacticalAirsoftTeam1]

@R0XAS100 it should work because saltpeter is KN03

[wildbill6976]

@R0XAS100 potassium nitrate is saltpeter

[aronfl]

@R0XAS100 KNO3 = Saltpeter

[l0rdsauron]

Yes

[r2darky]

@R0XAS100 salt peter is KnO³..

[oliverjamescarr]

@r2darky KNO(3) The 3 should be at the bottom, its not O cubed. Its all capitals as there are 3 elements present Potassium Nitrogen and Oxygen. Salt peter contains it but it is not pure. It is best if you can just buy it pure.

[r2darky]

@oliverjamescarr it doesnt really matter -.- your being a dick atm

[TheMrbubl3s]

@R0XAS100 You fucking derp.

[folezicle]

Oma Goss

[themakingofstuff]

your mxture burns too quickly

[wildbill6976]

@themakingofstuff You can add a bit of red iron oxide or baking soda to slow the burn. I have more luck dry mixing though (just mix the saltpeter/sugar/iron oxide, and pour it over a griddle, mix thoroughly, then pour in engine mold). burns more consistently.

[Rady610]

cool

[MrDusty351]

can you grind the mix up after you made it

[MrDusty351]

wont it catch on fire when you cook it

[l0rdsauron]

Not unless flames from the outside of the pot touch the inside and it completely dries out, as long as it is soft you should be fine

[usabaseball8]

i hear british texan aussie and oklahoma accent the hell? lol

[jrietmolen2]

it can explo

[rthrgh]

I hear Aussie accent?

[magicman5885]

can you only use the glucose syrup or can you use normal syrup

[l0rdsauron]

Use normal syrup and tell us what happens, we've never tried it.

[MrChiltan]

@l0rdsauron what can we use instead of glucose syrup? i made the candy without syrup and it didnt give good results is syrup necessary?

[wildbill6976]

@l0rdsauron It doesn't really matter, syrup is just a binder. It'll just vary your consistencies. I have the best luck with Karo corn syrup when hot mixing.

[johnmresler]

@magicman5885 Karo or other corn syrup(s) works fine. Maple syrup, not so much :)

[lary123play]

were did u find the potassium nitrate??

[l0rdsauron]

Try gardening stores.

[bunny153649]

when i cook it, it caught on fire!!! PLZ HELP/ADVICE!!

[1xXBRYANXx1]

does it pop when your making bottle rockets? what i mean is can it pop during flight in a bottle rocket?

[CommanderTyphoon]

once it turns into the the into a paste, can you whisk it to make it frothy (so as to add oxygen) or will it just break the whisk?

[danaownsall]

@CommanderTyphoon idk why u'd add oxygen to the fuel when kno3 serves as the oxydizer. bubbles in the fuel can cause explosions, too

[855h0le]

The Corn Syrup/Glucose Syrup can be warmed for a few seconds in microwave. I INSIST on GLOVES!! In 1995 my batch went up and I was burned so bad that my fingers stuck together!!

You have NO notice- it ALL ((most)) burned up before I had a chance to pull away.

**Good Video M8s..

[l0rdsauron]

Sorry to hear, we don't tell people about the safety measures they should use(we should and most likely will from now on) but have put a disclaimer in the description.

[PyroTimo]

It's not Rocket Candy but Recrystallized Candy !

[boabtin21]

again, you guys are very funny

[Flyntragous]

kool lol when i heard yall say what it was i thought it was something u had to buy, but it's nice to know you can make it

[CAIDMASTEROFPYRO]

does this work better than your rocket fuel

[l0rdsauron]

This is alot more powerfull than our other rocket fuel, and can be explosive if too much is egnited at once, as you will see soon on our rocket board.

[CAIDMASTEROFPYRO]

yeh your rocket board video i keep trying to watch it but youtube is saying it cannot be found
