I've always liked the taste of energy drinks and for years now, I have wanted there to be caffeine-free versions (specifically Red Bull). However, it doesn't seem like that is going to happen any time soon, so I decided to try and do it myself.

I am learning from the comments that there are a lot of people who absolutely hate the taste of RedBull.
I don’t have blood, I have redbull
I hate the taurine aftertaste :(
I had heard that caffeine is highly soluble in supercritical CO2.
Though this sounds extremely diffucult to do imo.
NileRed i love the taste but i can’t drink it anymore due to my anxiety attacks which i’ve got since three years 😞 a non caffeine version would be a dream
Redbull tastes like ass, to me. And energy drinks have never kept me up at night for some reason
I first thought the title meant that you take out the caffeine, so you can drink the pure caffeine at night
Hahah

How does this only have four replies besides mine? (It's at 1.1K)
I find that the main flavour contributor to energy drinks is Guarana, the fruit from Paullinia cupana. (Source: I've had Guarana juice) The fruit does contain caffeine, though. So maybe the right way to go about this might be to try to extract the flavour from the fruit and make a soda with it?

Thank you for providing this interesting fact! A few years ago on a flight I asked the flight attendant if they had Red Bull, she said no, but that there was a drink she felt tasted similar to Red Bull, and she gave me Guarana soda! Just something I remembered because of your comment.
We have lots of Guarana sodas here in Brazil, the one that tastes the closes to redbull, I'd say, is fantastic guaraná (the taste infinitely better than redbull tho
Closest* and Fanta guaraná**
It is interesting that, despite not having any caffeine, Guarana itself can also have a stimulant effect. In Brazil, Guarana powder is sold in pharmacies for that exact purpose as an alternative for caffeine pills.
My god chemistry is insane. Not just Nigel's life choices, but the fact that this is even POSSIBLE. There are so many chemicals and they do so many different things. The whole enterprise seems like a set of amazing and sometimes very frustrating puzzles.
Totally agree, it’s interesting to see how linked everything is. Chemistry interested me a fair bit in school but I don’t think I was intelligent enough for it, not to mention my totally unenthusiastic teacher

For anyone confused how you can talk about the pKa of something without any losable hydrogens, it’s talking about the pKa of the protonated caffeine, the “conjugate acid” (so you just imagine a hydrogen ion on the imide (the double-bonded) nitrogen. The pKa is how much you have to drop the pH (increase H+ concentration) to get it protonated again.
RSK for life...
Now explain like I’m 5.
@@TehUltimateSnake Alright, imagine you have a special toy that can stick to other toys when you touch it. But to make it stick, you need to give it a tiny, invisible piece called a "proton." The pKa is like a secret code that tells you how many pieces you need to give to the toy to make it sticky. If the pKa is low, you need to give it fewer pieces to make it sticky. If it's high, you need to give it more pieces. So, when we talk about the pKa of something without any "losable hydrogens," we're just talking about how sticky that special toy can get when it's all charged up.

If you want the taste of redbull, then you can make your DIY red bull!
1. Take out a glass or a nilered beaker!
2. Pour some cold or hot water( you decide).
3. Then buy the cheapest soap with citroën aka limone flavour.
4. Squish it and mix it with the water, and there you go! You have your own caffeine free red bull. If you want, you can add some caffeine to your DIY red bull.

the obvious answer is to take a bunch of cans of red bull, extract one ingredient from each of them, so you don't have to worry about destroying the other ingredients, then recombine them at the end without the caffeine lmao
on a more serious note caffeine itself has a flavour, so finding a similar flavouring to replace it might help
Smell somtimes is as important as flavour itself to form the overall impression. E.g. there are smells added to water giving it the impression of fruit flavor and it works realy good.

I haven't used a Sodastream for a loooong time, but I always thought you were supposed to carbonate the water on its own, remove the bottle, and *then* add the flavouring - it avoids contaminating/clogging the nozzle, and it stops that foam forming on the top.

I am sure that the flavour had been affected due to the evaporation of the volatile components. As for the lighter (less full) taste, you miss the bitterness of caffeine which was reduced by at least 25% by mass. As soon as perceived bitterness has non-linear function, 25% may completely change taste profile.
When you added the DCM into syrup you talked about maximizing the extraction by increasing surface area. Would spreading the liquid out on a really large flat tray or something not work better?
Yeah probably
“I like the chemical like taste” is the most NileRed thing ever.

You said that it would take days for the emulsion to separate. I guess you could try mixing it up properly and then just waiting till it does separate. Pretty sure that the DCM just didn't have enough contact to extract more than 25 percent

It works for the same reason IV saline needs to be 0.9% NaCl. If the salt concentration is higher on one side of the "barrier" than the other, water will diffuse across the barrier from the lower concentration side to the higher concentration side in an attempt to balance the concentrations. In an IV, your cells would burst if there wasn't salt added (water would diffuse into the cells to try decrease intracellular solute concentration), and in this case, water diffuses from the DCM into the brine solution.

Late to the party by several years. But if I recall correctly, they make decaf coffee using supercritical CO2 nowadays. Bonus is no toxic chemicals are used or weird tasting ones, downside is it's hard to do. You'd basicaly have to build a seperatory funnel that is also a pressure vessel.

Your avatar looks like mine but after drinking red bull at night
@@Jarbeeefis lol
A Question - Are you not increasing the level of acidity when you "re-carbonate" the Red Bull? It occurred to me when you talked about the acidity in the beginning. Would it be feasible to lower the acidity in the beginning without changing the flavor - then run through the rest of the process? The re-carbonation at the end should re-introduce carbonic acid into the drink, again, raising the acidity. (the introduction or reduction of carbon dioxide has a strong effect on taste as well, so attempting to match the original PH is going to be important.) This change in the acidity might help increase the efficiency of the caffeine extraction. Just an idea, two years on.
Would it be possible to extract the caffeine in the same way as in coffee beans if you dehydrated it first and rehydrated and carbonated it afterwards ?

As someone who messes with knives
Throwing blades unseathed is so fun yet dangerous, which makes it more fun

Just a tip, if you want it very fizzy then you'll need to refrigerate it before carbonating. Cold water absorbs more CO2 and retains more bubbles.
It still has sugar and B vitamins which give a bit of energy
"What do you know about taurine?"
"It's _not_ made from bull testicles."
The best answer to any question, ever.
How are you? I'm not made from bull testicles.
What's your name? Not bull testicles
Taurine is "made" of Bile.
Taurine is in catfood. Cats still sleep 20hrs a day.
Bull testicle meatballs from IKEA.

Quick, someone get Ex&F in here!
@@henrybyers5557 Isn't taurine a component of urine,maybe that's all the stuff is just sterilized urine with a sweetener and artificial flavoring,like the juice of the Mink anal gland,it smells and tastes like Vanilla.
Well one way to decaff the redbull came to my mind. If caffeine likes being extracted in alkaline what if you lower the pH of redbull at first extracted the caffeine and after all of that you neutralized the basis by some acid (or salt) which would made a precipitate that could be easily filtrated away (adding alkaline and acid in ekvivalent so there won't be some excessive ammount of them)
i also really love the taste of red bull, but i dont want to have a heart attack, and ive found a dring that has a similar taste "agua das pedras" which translates to stone water specifically the red berries flavor
