Solving Everyday Problems With The Scientific M... -

What is a specific you're dealing with right now that we could break down into a testable experiment ?

"If I lower the water temperature on my new kettle, then the coffee will taste less burnt." 3. The Experiment: Isolate the Variables

Most people jump straight to a solution before they truly understand the problem. Start by observing the symptoms without bias. "My morning coffee tastes bitter."

The coffee is smoother, but now it feels a little thin. 5. Iteration: The Secret Sauce

Here is how to apply the scientific method to your everyday hurdles. 1. The Observation: Define the "Glitch"
