Question

how can you break a coconut??...i tried almost everything....please help me....

Answer 1

Hold the coconut in the palm of your hand over a sink or large bowl. The bowl will catch the coconut juice when the coconut splits open.
Note the seam that runs between the "eyes." Follow the seam to the equator of the coconut. Using the blunt edge (not the blade)of a heavy knife (i.e. chefs knife, meat cleaver, machete) tap firmly around its equator as you rotate the coconut in the palm of your hand. Continue to tap and rotate until the coconut splits completely open. If it's done right, the coconut will break open after just a few turns into two equal halves.
If you do not have a heavy knife, grip the coconut and firmly tap the coconut around its equator on a hard and solid edge. A corner on a very large rock or brick wall or the edge of a contrete slab works well for this (patio, street curb, concrete stairs). Continue to tap and rotate until the coconut splits completely open.
If you prefer you can drain the coconut juice before cracking it open: Place the coconut on a hard, flat surface that will not be damaged. A sturdy cutting board will usually do.
Find the soft "eye" of the coconut that will be soft enough to push a Philips screwdriver through. If not, get a nail and a hammer to create the hole.
Drain the coconut juice into the bowl.
Follow the method outlined above to split the coconut open.

Hammer a nail into the coconut in about three places to drain the milk. Once the milk is drained out, use the hammer to break the coconut.
