Re: One upping Dave: A Diet Coke and Mentos Rocket!

Just out of curiosity, has anyone instrumented a Coke/Mentos bottle yet?

It would be interesting to see how much pressure builds up in the bottle

you can easily get 100 psi with a quality bicycle tire pump. If coke/mentos does not exceed this it would be less expensive to perfect the bottle rocket using water and air pressure

and save the Coke/mentos for live-fire demos with an audience.
