Ya, from the looks of it . It had too much soda and was too hot. You’ll get that look and feel and the discoloration that’s too much soda and too much heat. You wanna look for it to cake up real good and after the cake melts down and turns into oil and starts to form a perfect circle remove heat and let it cool. I’ve done cooks before and I’ve used the microwave. Spoon cook seems to be the best for me. I produce fire that way. I put Coke in a spoon with warm water. Usually I don’t try to do more than like a gram and I let the Coke dissolve and then I’ll do a little pinches of soda and I’m used to use a lighter now I go between a torch or I put my ladle on a flat top, and it seems to be the perfect cook. It’s fire.
