Cream Chargers, What Are they?

Since their appearance in the 20th century, cream fillers have become increasingly popular. They have been used for a variety of purposes, most notably in the food and beverage industry, because of their ability to safely and efficiently inject and aerate pressurized gas (nitrous oxide or N2O) into liquids.

Along with their professional applications, they are becoming increasingly popular in the home as more and more people try to replicate the culinary creations of experts. As long as home chefs stick to well-known and reputable brands like iSi, Kayser, Liss and Mosa, they should be safe and give excellent results!

What is the purpose of a whipping cream charger?
A whipped cream charger is a cylinder or cylinder filled with nitrous oxide (N2O) that is used as a whipping agent in a whipped cream dispenser. The narrow end of the nitrous oxide cylinder is covered with a layer of aluminum foil that must be broken to release the gas. This is usually done with a pointed needle embedded in the whipped cream dispenser. The cream canister is also used as an oxidizer in hybrid model rocket engines. (This is the only type of abuse of the product that we accept, ha ha!) .

While whipping cream for dessert toppings and hot beverages is their primary function, cream chargers do much more than that.

What are the advantages of using a cream charger?
As an alternative to making whipped cream using a whipping creamer + charger, heat or fat-dense stabilizers such as gelatin or agar are often added. Because the cream whipper aerates the cream in a closed system, it is immediately cooled and therefore does not require additional ingredients to maintain its light and airy texture. In addition, this results in a cleaner, brighter flavor, as these stabilizers are easily identifiable and tend to mask the true flavor of your creation.
Another distinct advantage of using a whipped cream charger is the ability to preserve and maintain the freshness of sauces and foams for a long time, allowing them to be prepared in advance. Due to the airtight nature of whipped cream dispensers, even the most delicate of mixtures (containing eggs or dairy products) have the potential to last over a week when stored in this manner. This time period is more likely to be a few days in a professional kitchen, but it is a wonderful way to preserve it.
Cream mixers can be used to add volume and body to sauces and condiments that are not aerated. This allows you to experiment a lot with your recipes. As the pressure increases, the sauce not only adheres more easily to the food (ideal for spreading pasta), but it also intensifies the flavor. This is also good news for your food budget, as the aerated mixture goes farther than usual with the addition of gas.
Soak alcoholic beverages with n20 in less than two minutes instead of two weeks. n2O is vented from the whipped cream charger into the cream mixer, allowing the liquid and n2O to organically combine with the flavoring ingredients under high pressure. When the pressure of the whipping creamer is released, the N2O forms bubbles and absorbs the aromas of the ingredients. This signifies that the aroma has been absorbed by the liquid. By combining the alcohol and aromatics in the whipped cream siphon, you can speed up the process so that the infusion takes only minutes instead of weeks, while maintaining the same flavor as a full infusion
