For the soap-wand, just put 30% soap and 70% water in the wand and it will use the same amount of volume, but 1/3 as much soap. You can adjust the ratio to whatever you prefer for soap usage.

Awww, I'm so disappointed that he doesn't show the cleaning anymore! One of the things I always LOVED about this channel over other reviewers is that he's so thorough and always showed the cleaning, but the last several videos he hasn't included that. That butter thing and also the veggie slicer he did a few weeks ago look like they might be nightmares to clean, so I was really curious to see him get to that part but he never did. :-(

The Butter Mill is great. I Put Philadelphia cream cheese sticks in there for my bagels. I own two of these. They are very versatile for many options also good for putting toppings on cakes and muffins using cream sticks.

What a nostalgia hit! We had the butter mill as a kid, though the version you had looked way better made. We never found that ours worked well at all, and it took up way too much space. Another great video James, thanks!

It's actually the opposite in the fineness of the powders in the scoop. The protein powder doesn't go down easily because it's so fine it packs easily. The other powder you poured into the mouth hole of the nicer bottle looked more like granulated sugar (coarser than flour or protein powder) so didn't cake and easily dropped when you opened the hatch. Good reviews as always

3M has made that dish wand for years if not decades. I live in the land of 3M worldwide HQ and have two family members who work for or are retired from 3M. My stepmom first gave my sisters and I each one in our “Santa boxes”, along with other helpful household stuff from 3M, when we had moved out on our own before any of us married (and I’ve been married 28 years this coming Saturday).

Since that’s the newest version, the refill brushes for that shape will be along soon. Honestly the brush heads last a long time anyway. The interchangeability between brush and sponge is nice and it’s the sponges that need to be replaced more often because they wear out much faster. Since this was new to you, you’re not yet savvy to the ways of dispensing the soap. The brush will hold sufficient suds between dishes if you don’t rinse them out in between. And if you tip it slightly sideways, a tiny amount will go into the bristles, not on the dish. That’s all you need. If you’re dispensing to see it on the dish, then yes, you’re using too much. Keep using it, you’ll get the hang of it.

Butter mill looks impressive, for someone like me who barely uses butter this is great for avoiding the need to try and spread cold butter onto things. Could use some sort of cutter though.

I have a simular "DishWand". I find that when you are scrubbing several items you don't need to constantly dispense soap. Some soap stays in the brush and can lather up again with a little water. The reason the brush is removable is so you can put it in the dishwasher to clean it. I hope this helps.

"I'm just gonna dispense all the butter."

Me: prabably going to leave it and let it come to room temp. Lol

[GadgetAddict]

I'm going to buy that butter thing.

I've been using a cheese slicer to basically do the same thing. Except my.method needs more effort and makes a bigger mess.

I just let the butter warm a little after getting the thin slices. Then you can spread it easily.

The G cap would be great for seniors who have problems with shakiness . Not just for kids . :)

[dianenewhall]

Have had a butter mill since at least 2010...unfortunately not only 1- you have to be careful that it is fully tightened or you can crack the red threaded part, but it's still been worth it to replace it 3 times over the years!

[brianvandy]

Gcap: Remember, for anyone with kids any open bottle is just asking to be knocked over on the carpet, couch, in the car. Anything that reduces that risk is worth it. As for the vitamin water leak, I suspect that was because you probably slightly compressed the plastic bottle when you tipped it over, forcing some of the liquid out. It was still less of a spill than had the top been completely open.

When I heard butter mill I was hoping for something that would let me churn my own butter.
But this is probably better and definitely more likely for me to use.

Today was one of those days that i came home from work and couldn't stop screaming about how shitty the world is... then i see Freakin Reviews has a new video! I don't know why this was able to reset my brain the way it did, especially because i don't plan on buying any of these products...

Anyway just wanted to thank you and let you know that this channel genuinely brings me a lot of joy!

Hey, I think the Amazon reviews for the G cap saying it's hard to drink through could have some science behind it: usually, when you drink from a bottle, the gap around your lips (or the straw) allows air to flow inside the bottle meaning that the density of the air inside the bottle is balanced. If you use the G cap, no air can flow into the bottle to replace the volume of liquid that has been drunk, so the remaining air will drop in density and pressure, meaning you will have to suck way harder through the straw to counteract this. I could foresee this could present problems for young children.
Maybe see if you're able to drink a full bottle?

Haven't seen Bailey in a bit! I hope she's doing okay! And I know you had an older Golden and a smaller doggy. Maybe Bailey could become the star again by testing some pet gagets to see if they work!

[rconwoo]

I just bought the slide scoop for my Metamucil. Now it's going to be just as easy to mix up my drink as it is to poop it out later! Thanks!

[Houze]

That "Married With Children" tee is the real gadget on show here, love it!

[urzamtg]
