We just picked up our very first Isi. Lots of fun. Working on a recipe for tobacco foam for a tomato dish coming up with a pairing dinner.
1000g water
150g sugar
10g cigar wrapper
7g salt
1g sassparilla root
2 coffee beans
7 sheets gelatin
Bloom the gelatin in cold water and squeeze out excess. Combine with sassparilla, coffee bean and cigar wrapper in medium container. Bring the water, sugar and salt to a boil and pour over the cigar wrapper. Cover and steep 2 hours. Strain. Load 500g liquid into the isi canister while warm. 2 charges. Shock in ice water immediately and shake every 5 minutes, until gelatin has set. Refrigerate until ready to use.

Also made a great mousse:
100g dark chocolate
50g milk

Warm everything and load. 2 charges. Keep warm.
