The teaspoon was introduced in London in 1686 as the perfect-sized spoon to measure any amount of tea. It could also be used for the sugar and cream afterward. However, these teaspoons were not standardized and could range anywhere from 2.5 ml to 6 ml in volume.

That’s why the modern-day measuring teaspoon is exactly 5 ml and is standard across the board so that any chef or cook can measure the exact same amount of ingredients.

You can also call a serving spoon a tablespoon, and this is the word's original meaning, from "spoon for table service," first used around 1760.

If you're looking for a grams-to-teaspoons conversion chart, you won't find one here. Grams are a measure of mass, and teaspoons measure volume. The correct conversion depends on the density of the item you're measuring. 

What items should not be kept in AC room?

Dear Readers,

It is continuation of our previous article" How to use AC in this hot season." Apart from the usage in hot sessions, we should also know what the materials are should not kept inside the AC room, so that we can use the AC in better.

Large metal objects such as iron bureaus, iron beds, iron tables and iron chairs should not be placed in the room. If they are placed in an AC room, they will absorb the cold and cool down first when the air in the room is cooled by the AC operation.

Thus, AC is used for more time than required. Along with running, the AC machine wears out quickly due to wastage of power and long running time of the compressor.

Some offices install false ceilings with thermocol to reduce the height of the room. Due to this the area of ​​the room is reduced. The room will be cool enough if it runs for a short time.

But this is only suitable for offices where doors are opened and closed frequently.

If installed in homes, the room will soon be filled with carbon dioxide emitted by people sleeping in closed rooms! This is not healthy!

AC if the room has iron furniture. The life of the engine will decrease slightly! In a nutshell that AC room should not have more Furnitures.

How to use AC in this hot season?

 Correct use of AC:

With the start of hot summer season and regular use of air conditioners, let's follow the correct method.

Most people have a habit of running their ACs at 20-22 degrees and when they feel cold, they cover their bodies with blankets. This leads to a double loss. How???

Did you know that our body temperature is 35 degrees Celsius? The body can easily tolerate temperatures between 23 degrees and 39 degrees. This is called human body temperature tolerance.

When the room temperature is too low or too high, the body reacts by sneezing and shivering.

When you run the AC at 19-20-21 degrees, the room temperature is much lower than the normal body temperature and this starts a process called hypothermia in the body, which affects blood circulation, thereby causing insufficient blood supply to certain parts of the body. sees Long-term disabilities such as arthritis can result.

When the AC is on there is mostly no sweat, so the body's toxins cannot get out, and in the long run there is a risk of many diseases like skin allergies or itching, high blood pressure etc.

When you run the AC at such low temperature, it keeps the compressor running at full power, even if it is 5 star rated, more power is consumed & it wastes money from your pocket.

What is the best way to run AC?? Set temperatures at 26 degrees or higher.

First setting the AC temperature to 20 - 21 will not give you any benefit, then It is always better to run the AC at 26+ degrees and keep the fan on slow speed. 28 plus degrees is ideal.

It consumes less electricity, and your body temperature is also within range, and there is no harm to your health.

Another advantage of this is that the AC will consume less electricity, the blood pressure on the brain will also decrease and the savings will ultimately help reduce the effects of global warming. How??

Let's say you save 5 units per night by running AC in 10 lakh houses at 26+ degrees, then we save 5 million units of electricity per day.

At the regional level this saving could be crores of units per day.

Please consider the above and do not run your AC below 26 degrees. Keep your body and environment healthy.
