Siphon

All areas of use of the siphon

Siphons are the collective name for containers that use pressure to dissolve gases in liquids. For fat-based liquids, cartridges with nitrous oxide, N2O, are used, while carbon dioxide cartridges, CO2, are what give water-based drinks bubbles. Most of our siphons are made of stainless steel or aluminum and are easy to wash and keep whole and clean. This utensil is today an indispensable tool for many ambitious cooks – the possibility to naturally give soups, sauces and emulsions more fluff and volume means that the siphon's popularity is growing more and more. And smoothly whipping cream with a cream siphon or getting carbonated water with a soda siphon, is worth its weight in gold! Then the technique of rapid infusion has also grown in popularity lately as you can make infusions with enormous depth of flavour in just a few minutes. Read our siphon guide and learn more!
