For that kind of money I would expect the Cooper Cooler to actually produce the ice that it uses.

I appreciate the comment about dexterity for using a gadget like the garlic peeler. It's so important that we recognize that sometimes these gadgets were made to help people that needed it and we may not be the intended audience, and that doesn't stop it from being useful.

I love that the team have taken the "some gadgets are for disabled people" lesson to heart. Like they could just appologise when there is an example that's big enough to cause a fuss, or just assume non-disabled viewers like most people do. But no, they've taken it to heart and are even using their imaginations for like "I could imagine if you don't have the dexterity..." Thanks guys, it really means the world

Spinning the bottle does two things, it causes the wine inside to move to the walls, increasing the surface area to cool and allows for the entire bottle to be cooled, rather than one side. sommelier are taught to do this with a bucket normally, but this is just automated.

Another note: The garlic twist thing is great for letting kids help out in the kitchen when they're a little too small for fine knife work. :)

I feel like this has been the month of Barry. He's been winning cooking battles, going up in the standings for the skills challenge. That slow-played burn on Ben for pulling out the red wine... That's an all-timer. Good on you Baz.

I have something very similar to that garlic crusher but for... 'herbs'

[korylemon]

My favorite thing about this series is completely forgetting about it and then binging the previous 6 months worth

[lawnjart]

I am actually thinking of getting the garlic crusher. It is relatively small. My knife skills were always subpar, but I now have some nerve damage in my hand. I think this is safer/easier to use since I lost some dexterity

I was so excited about that shrimp peeler thing, that I not only paused the video and showed my roomie, I immediately went onto Amazon and bought one for myself. I love making shrimp but, I hate peeling, which often leads to me buying the overpriced pre-pealed and deveined shrimp. Now I can save a ton of money, and honestly get a better quality of shrimp. Thanks Sorted, love you guys, and all that you do!

As an avid wine drinker, I fully expected the Cooper Cooler to work. That's essentially just a mechanized version of what somm's are trained to do: fill a bowl with ice water and spin the bottle for several minutes. It'll work even faster if you add salt, but I imagine that's harder to clean.

[Budhaball]

that garlic grinder would be excellent for various dried herbs as well.

Since seeing the Cooper Cooler on a different channel a couple years ago, I've taken to putting my drink into the ice maker area of my freezer for 5 minutes, and then spinning it by hand for as long as my finger tips allow. It works every time to bring it to a cold temp.

And for people who are worried. Spinning DOESN'T shake it up, so there's zero risk with soda/beer/energy drinks/seltzers. It's a game changer of an idea and you don't need the device

Tip for peeling shrimp: grab all the legs with between your thumb and the side of your finger and twist them around the side of the shrimp. Might take you a few tries, but the shell will consistently come off in one piece with one twist once you've got the technique.

"Chef reviews". Nice to see Jamie and Barry finally getting promoted from being normals to chefs 😁

[emilywade]

I've been watching Sorted since I was about 16 and just liked cooking. I'm 25 now, graduated from culinary school and it's been so awesome seeing the channel grow and see all the things I've been able to learn from this channel and these guys. From traditional recipe videos to gadget testing it's definitely one of my favorite pastimes. YouTube is crazy weird sometimes, but I'm so glad I found channels like this. 😊😊

[Celestyal]

Not going to lie, that last tool I honestly went "WHY DID YOU GIVE HIM SPECULUM?!" Seriously, that's what I thought it was for a second. 😆

[lyinarbaeldeth]

Years ago the liquor stores used to have big versions of the Cooper Cooler to rapidly chill your purchase. It was just a big vertical drum with a whirlpool of icewater.

[rafacst]

It’s so adorable that this is sold as a garlic crusher 😂

[shepshape]

Gadget #3, the garlic crusher, is basically a weed grinder made for garlic. I couldn't help but think it was invented by some stoner who was also a cook. Once he or she had a great buzz going and got the munchies, they were like "I need to crush some garlic for my pasta dish, oh, I know what I could use!"
