![]() It looks like a very tiny immersion blender, which is more or less what it is. That's why our current favorite is the Nanofoamer from Subminimal.Ī darling on Kickstarter, the Nanofoamer is now a real product. Properly textured milk is creamy, light, airy, and never stiff or separated. Most frothers make a stiff frothy foam that sits on top of the milk, which isn't great for lattes or cappuccinos. These machines beat air into milk, or milk substitutes, to get that nice creamy froth. Not to mention, sometimes all you really want is frothy milk. Sometimes making a whole latte or cappuccino using an automated machine can be a time suck. I liked it so much, I didn’t even mind that the spout on the frother was designed for right-handed folks. It was so simple to use and clean that I sometimes frothed milk with it even when I used other machines to make my espresso. The jug is made of stainless steel, and the plastic spinner comes right off, making cleanup as easy as a quick run under the faucet. When it’s done, simply pour your milk with the spout on the side. It has three settings-cold, latte, and cappuccino-and froths milk to perfection with the tap of a button. Despite the fact that the K-Café doesn’t technically make espresso shots (the K-cup system doesn't put its grounds under any pressure), it still makes a delicious “espresso style” 2-ounce shot that can taste almost as strong, though without the crema that you might desire. It's the best Keurig we’ve used ( 8/10, WIRED Recommends) and has the best frother of any machine tested for this guide. (A double latte, for instance, is 15 ounces, but a double cappuccino is only 10 ounces.) The slide-out booster is nice for smaller glasses. Milk tends to come out a little foamier than I (Jeffrey) prefer for a latte, and it took me some time to understand what size glass I needed for each drink. You will have to remember to remove and refrigerate it each morning and clean it every few days or it could clog up-cleanup is easy, thankfully. Like the One-Touch Coffeehouse, this machine's integrated milk container has its pros and cons. But other than that it makes fairly rich single or double-size espressos, cappuccinos, and lattes with the push of a button. It's perfect if you want pure espresso and a machine that mixes the milk for you without much fuss, but it's also more plasticky and lightweight, which means you really have to steady the machine with your hand as you twist the portafilter into place. The Café Barista is a downgraded version of our top pick, the Mr. In that way, these machines are automated or semi-automated and are great for anyone who wants a device that specializes in dispensing coffee at the touch of a button. That includes machines with built-in containers for milk, or machines that effectively do the steaming for you. Here we're gathering machines that make it easier, specifically, to make milk-based or alternative-milk-based drinks. The machines here differ from the picks in our Best Espresso Machines roundup in a couple of important ways. That's why we've put together a list of machines that make excellent milk-based or alternative-milk-based beverages at the touch of a button (or a couple buttons). Making a barista-worthy espresso is tough enough, but adding the right amount of milk and foam, perfectly heated and combined, is surprisingly daunting. Sadly, creating the perfect cap or caffe latte at home can be a hassle. Just writing about these delicious, warming drinks makes us want one. A good latte or cappuccino is like a rich, milky mug of heaven.

![]() Figure 3 illustrates how the magnitude of PAW changes with soil texture. Texture and structure determine pore size distribution in soil, and therefore, the amount of PAW. In contrast, much of the water held at field capacity is available for plant uptake and use through evapotranspiration (Figure 2).ĭifferences in soil properties (texture and structure) affect the water content at saturation, field capacity, and permanent wilting point. This free water is termed drainable porosity. Water held between saturation and field capacity is transitory, subject to free drainage over short time periods, hence is it is generally considered unavailable to plants. As water content decreases, soil matric potential decreases, becoming more negative, and as a result, water is held more strongly to mineral surfaces due to cohesive forces between water molecules and adhesive forces associated with water and mineral particles ( capillary forces). Field capacity represents the soil water content retained against the force of gravity by matric forces (in micropores and mesopores) at tension of -0.033 MPa (Figure 2). As the soil dries, field capacity is reached after free drainage of macropores has occurred. This mechanism of flow by the force of gravity occurs mainly in macropores. When the soil is at or near saturation the direction of the potential energy gradient is downward through the soil profile or laterally down slope. Three soil moisture states, saturation, field capacity and permanent wilting point are used to describe water content across different water potentials in soil and are related to the energy required to move water (or extract water from soil) (Figure 2). Negative water potentials arise as soil dries resulting in suction or tension on water allowing the soil to retain water like a sponge. When at or near saturation, soils typically display water potentials near 0 MPa. A potential energy gradient dictates soil moisture redistribution and losses, where water moves from areas of high- to low-potential energy (Hillel 1982). Water is stored and redistributed within soil in response to differences in potential energy. These processes are governed by potential energy. However, total water holding capacity does not describe how much water is available to plants, or how freely water drains in soil. Generally speaking, clay-rich soils have the largest pore space, hence the greatest total water holding capacity. Water storage and redistribution are a function of soil pore space and pore-size distribution, which are governed by texture and structure (Childs 1940). These concepts are integrated with a case study that describes the interplay between hydrologic processes, water dynamics in soil, and soil genesis. The learning objectives discussed here include: 1) an introduction to the soil water balance equation 2) the factors and soil properties that govern water potential and plant available water holding capacity and 3) soil morphologic features and classification methods to describe the fate of water in soil. This article focuses on soil water dynamics and introduces concepts of soil moisture storage, water flow and the soil properties that influence these processes. Water dynamics in soil are governed by many factors that change vertically with depth, laterally across landforms and temporally in response to climate (Swarowsky, et al., 2011). Thus, most aspects of terrestrial- and freshwater aquatic-life depend on hydrologic processes in soil (O'Geen et al. As such, the sustainability of water resources (considering both quantity and quality) is directly influenced by soil. Water percolating through soil is filtered, stored for plant utilization, and redistributed across flow paths to groundwater and surface water bodies. The capacity of soil to regulate the terrestrial freshwater supply is a fundamental ecosystem service. ![]() ![]() Days after meeting Eliza, he wrote to Peggy, saying that he had already formed “a more than common partiality” for her “person and mind,” then begging her, as “a nymph of equal sway,” to distract Hamilton’s peers with her feminine wiles such that he could monopolize Eliza. Smart, beautiful, gregarious Peggy was a close confidante to Hamilton, who affectionately called her “my Peggy” in his letters to Eliza. I am sure her good sense will soon place her in her proper station.” Born Margarita Schuyler in 1758, Peggy was the youngest of the Schuyler sisters, known as a “wicked wit… endowed with a rare accuracy of judgment in men and things” she was also “a favorite at dinner tables and balls.” One of Hamilton’s closest friends criticized Peggy as a “Swift’s Vanessa” (eighteenth-century parlance for a woman too enamored of talking politics with men to be likable), writing to Hamilton, “Tell her so. Yet in reality, it was Peggy Schuyler who played matchmaker. In the musical, Miranda depicts Angelica as a noble martyr, setting aside her own attraction to Hamilton in order to play matchmaker for Hamilton and a lovestruck Eliza. Certainly their flirtatious and playful letters fueled contemporary gossip, with Angelica joking in one letter to her sister, “If you were as generous as the old Romans, you would lend him to me for a little while.” Yet historians tend to agree that no actual affair took place, as Angelica and her growing family spent sixteen years living abroad in Europe, apart from occasional visits to America. Hamilton depicts a lifelong flirtation and correspondence between Hamilton and Angelica, both of whom the musical suggests were powerless to resist the attraction and intellectual chemistry they shared, even after Hamilton married Angelica’s sister. Schuyler refused to bless the union due to his suspicions about Church’s unsavory past, yet one night in 1777, Angelica left the family home under the cover of darkness, eloping with Church against her parents’ wishes.Īt the time of the Midwinter Ball in 1780, where the Schuyler sisters first encountered Hamilton, Angelica was a married mother of two toddlers-far from the lovesick young socialite portrayed in the musical. ![]() Church was handsome, cosmopolitan, and vaguely dangerous, enchanting Angelica through a series of illicit notes and letters. Angelica first encountered Church in 1776, when he was sent to the Schuyler home by Congress to audit her father’s accounts, as Congress suspected General Schuyler of poor command. Yet even so, the suitor Angelica chose was far from a satisfactory match.Īngelica chose as her husband John Barker Church, an English-born businessman and supplier of the Continental Army who settled in the colonies either to escape gambling debts or retribution for a duel. In “Satisfied,” a song set at the 1780 Midwinter Ball where the Schuyler sisters first encountered Hamilton, Angelica sings, “I’m a girl in a world in which my only job is to marry rich / My father has no sons so I’m the one who has to social climb for one.” In reality, Philip Schuyler had three sons and an ample fortune inherited through marriage, meaning that Angelica had her pick of the litter where suitors were concerned. Yet in the matter of stealing hearts, the love triangle depicted in Hamilton takes some creative license with the historical record. The 2020 Movies That Are Streaming Online Early.Angelica was witty, spirited, and well-read, as well as “the thief of hearts,” according to her contemporaries. As the firstborn child of a wealthy and landed Dutch family that had lived in Albany since the early days of the colonies, Angelica was a prominent socialite, mixing with the many high-profile Revolutionary War figures that frequented the Schuyler home due to her father’s rank and stature. ![]() In Hamilton, his award-winning Broadway musical, Lin-Manuel Miranda depicts Alexander Hamilton’s wife and sisters-in-law as a proto-feminist girl group, singing in formation and demanding that the Founding Fathers “include women in the sequel.” But who were Eliza Hamilton’s sisters, Angelica and Peggy Schuyler, and were their politics as revolutionary as Hamilton suggests? An investigation into their lives reveals that, although Miranda fudged many of the biographical details, the real Schuyler sisters were truly as unforgettable as the fictionalized characters in the musical.Īngelica Schuyler, born in 1756 in Albany, New York, was the eldest daughter of Continental Army General Philip Schuyler and his wife, Catharine Van Rensselaer Schuyler. ![]() They are helping grow the home freeze-drying trend by producing cheaper dryers than some of their more commercially based competitors.

Unary plus: +x does exactly the number coercion steps explained above to convert x.There are two ways to achieve nearly the same effect in JavaScript. The resulting primitive is then converted to a number. Objects are first converted to a primitive by calling their (with "number" as hint), valueOf(), and toString() methods, in that order.BigInts throw a TypeError to prevent unintended implicit coercion causing loss of precision.Empty or whitespace-only strings are converted to 0.In actual code, they are global variables. Infinity and -Infinity are recognized as literals.(In actual code, they "look like" part of the literal, but are actually separate unary operators.) However, the sign can only appear once, and must not be followed by whitespace. + and - are allowed at the start of the string to indicate its sign.A leading 0 digit does not cause the number to become an octal literal (or get rejected in strict mode).Leading and trailing whitespace/line terminators are ignored.There are some minor differences compared to an actual number literal: ![]() Strings are converted by parsing them as if they contain a number literal.The operation can be summarized as follows: Many built-in operations that expect numbers first coerce their arguments to numbers (which is largely why Number objects behave similarly to number primitives). More details on this are described in the ECMAScript standard. ![]() Integers can only be represented without loss of precision in the range -2 53 + 1 to 2 53 - 1, inclusive (obtainable via Number.MIN_SAFE_INTEGER and Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER), because the mantissa can only hold 53 bits (including the leading 1). Values higher than that are replaced with the special number constant Infinity. The largest value a number can hold is 2 1024 - 1 (with the exponent being 1023 and the mantissa being 0.1111… in base 2), which is obtainable via Number.MAX_VALUE. Therefore, the mantissa's precision is 2 -52 (obtainable via Number.EPSILON), or about 15 to 17 decimal places arithmetic above that level of precision is subject to rounding. The mantissa is stored with 52 bits, interpreted as digits after 1.… in a binary fractional number. Number = ( − 1 ) sign ⋅ ( 1 + mantissa ) ⋅ 2 exponent \text Thinking about it as scientific notation: The exponent is the power of 2 that the mantissa should be multiplied by. The mantissa (also called significand) is the part of the number representing the actual value (significant digits).
