Chapter 228: The Secret in Coffee
I searched the internet for a nearby convenience store phone number and ordered coffee from there, and it was delivered shortly after.
Once you have the coffee, the research officially begins.
Speaking of which, Chihuo is not very good at making coffee, so he casually bought an original coffee powder.
If it's coffee beans, he can't play with it at all.
Don't look at him as a chef, but making coffee is another matter.
It's like making tea, and it's not that simple.
Speaking of which, the reason why I chose plain coffee powder is that I don't want to mix any other ingredients into the coffee.
They can only accept the coffee itself, not any sugar, additives and other ingredients.
Water is fine, but it's only water mixed with coffee, or even human blood, and you can't drink it directly.
It can be said that what can be eaten is really harsh to the extreme, and it is simply challenging the imagination of human beings.
"I see...... "When Chi Huo brewed coffee and added the Rc factor sugar cube, he got the answer directly through the stand-in.
The fact that coffee is able to absorb the Rc factor and then form a new state is the truth and the answer.
To put it simply, if Rc cells are actually mutated red blood cells that can fuse the Rc factor, then coffee is a similar situation.
I don't know how, coffee can really be like a mutated red blood cell, the Rc factor is perfectly fused into it, thus changing the shape of the coffee itself, making it acceptable.
If it's just coffee, or the Rc factor, it can't actually be directly accepted by meow.
Yes, the Rc factor sugar cube, if it is used to soak in water and drink, it is unacceptable, so you must add coffee.
Pure Rc factors are not accepted by mew species, they can only accept Rc cells, so they must eat human flesh.
Otherwise, the artificial Rc factor has long been developed, so why should the mew must eat human flesh?
Coffee is an exception, but because coffee is not a real Rc cell after all, it is only a temporary substitute that can be accepted by the body and can relieve the hunger of the seed, but it cannot solve the fundamental problem.
Even in antique coffee shops, although they mainly live by drinking coffee, they still have to go out to pick up corpses and then continue to survive.
"Can coffee be replaced?" Chihuo is thinking about this kind of problem.
He felt that there was no way to find a fundamental solution to the problem directly and immediately.
However, if you can temporarily add a new recipe to the mew seeds, you may be able to win more trust from them and make them willing to cooperate more.
The focus is really on further analysis of the coffee composition, directly finding the key to its ability to integrate the Rc factor, and then finding other solutions.
Chihuo is here to challenge his cooking skills, so this kind of thinking is also a challenge at the moment.
It is indeed difficult to solve the problem directly, but it is also a way to think indirectly from another direction now.
After repeated tests by Chihuo, he gradually discovered a little mystery.
That's right, his collaboration with the antique coffee shop has already begun, and every now and then a clerk will come to the door to taste the food......
Through repeated experiments, many clerks in the antique coffee shop were tossed a lot, and finally Chihuo got some data.
At first, Chihuo suspected that the problem was with the main ingredient in coffee, which was caffeine.
As a result, in order to experiment, he made tea with the same caffeine, and then wanted to replace the effect of coffee.
As a result, it didn't work at all......
A certain unlucky guy who drank tea vomited directly on the spot.
Obviously, the Rc factor sugar cube was also added, but it didn't work at all.
This made Chihuo directly realize that as the real main ingredient of coffee, caffeine is not the reason why coffee can really be accepted by the seeds.
It's a pity!
However, just to verify this conclusion, Chihuo kept trying coffee from various origins, as well as trying various origins and types of tea, which directly tossed the staff of the antique coffee shop to the point that they almost went crazy and almost didn't want to come again.
Moreover, Chihuo will occasionally open his mind and come up with some additional experiments, which is the real helpless result.
In any case, under the repeated verification of Chihuo, there is finally a major gain.
The main components of coffee, namely: water, fat, fiber, calcium, iron, vitamin B2, caffeine, protein, sugar, ash, phosphorus, sodium, niacin, tannin.
Then, normal red blood cells are filled with abundant hemoglobin, which accounts for about 32% of the cell's weight, water accounts for 64%, and the remaining 4% is lipids, sugars, and various electrolytes.
Through comparison and speculation, Chihuo felt that there were some ingredients in the coffee that should not be accepted by the coffee at all, but it was still accepted.
The reason for this is very puzzling to him.
After repeated verification, Red Fire targeted tannins, or tannins.
Tannins are also known as tannins, tannins, and tannins, which are yellow or light brown light amorphous powders or scales, with specific and slightly odorous odors and extremely astringent taste. As an astringent, it can precipitate proteins and form insoluble complexes with alkaloids, glycosides and heavy metals.
Tannins are both a strong fixative that fixes many proteins and carbohydrate derivatives, and a mordant that enhances the absorption of heavy metals (e.g., uranium, lead), thereby enhancing the contrast of samples, especially in extracellular membranes, elastic fibers, cell junctions, muscle fibers, etc.
When Chihuo felt that tannins were suspicious no matter how he looked at it, he immediately experimented.
He bought the tannins outright, mixed the Rc factor sugar cube into it, and the result was – success!
After Chihuo's thinking, the reason was also found.
What is special about RC cells? In fact, when Rc cells pass through the Hebao and are processed into Hezi, they can constantly change their shape and are extremely hard.
As a result, Chihuo specially studied the Rc cells in his hands, that is, the Hebao obtained from the unlucky mew seed earlier, and the Rc cells that were decomposed from Kuinke, and finally came to a conclusion.
It turns out that the Rc factor itself has metallic properties, so it is harder than normal metal, so it can effectively fuse with the memory metal Kuink steel.
Since tannins are astringents, they can precipitate proteins and form insoluble complexes with alkaloids, glycosides and heavy metals.
Then, naturally, the conclusion comes out.
The reason why the RC factor can be fused with coffee is because of the tannins.
However, just as Chihuo found out that he had found the root cause and was overjoyed about it, the next experiment brought him a huge blow.
Success and failure can sometimes be the difference between a line!
