STEM KIT #25 Energy Efficiency Kit

STEM KIT #25 Energy Efficiency (Kill A Watt)  Kit

"Simply plug an appliance into the Kill A Watt meter and it will assess the efficiency for you.  The Large LCD will display the power consumption by the kilowatt-hour (KWH), which is the billing unit your local utility uses.  By monitoring your KWH usage for a particular appliance and multiplying it by your utility's rate, you can determine your electric expense by the day, week, month, or year.

More information on using the Kill A Watt found HERE

The science behind cheese!

Milk is a type of mixture called a colloid. A colloid has multiple ingredients that are permanently suspended in the mixture. Unlike water and dirt, they won’t settle out. If you add an acid to a colloid, the ingredients will separate.   When you make cheese, you separate the colloid and collect all leftover materials (whey).

 For some more information on colloids, you can visit HERE and HERE

Websites to get different cheese enzymes and supplies HERE.  Rennet can be found at your local grocery store!!
