Thank you for the idea. A good vauquelin takes a lot of work, but the luscious flavor is worth it if it works. Thank you for the idea.

Normally you need just one charge for it, but the result was still liquid. After a second charge, it was a foam - but still slightly floating. A third charge doesn't last in the iSi because the pressure gets too high. The total volume of the foam that I got out of the iSi was disappointingly far below 1 liter. It was setting well in the microwave but the texture wasn't as smooth as with hand-whisked foam. So this might be a solution if - surprise - you have guests and need a 3-minute dessert. But otherwise, i prefer the more "classic" preparation... I will try other cocktail vauquelins the following days but I ran out of eggs over the weekend :-) Small update:

Would you just dump all the ingredients into it an just whip it up? Think that it will give a finer texture? So have you tried with the isi whipper yet?

Think that it will give a finer texture?

I really like that idea! I was just thinking about making vaquelin the other day when I noticed I have a single egg in the fridge:) You’re a genius. I really like that idea!
