I have the Breville and am happy with it. You could easily airfry a chicken and it still works as a traditional oven

If you knew that, and I knew that, and the Atlantic knew that...one of us should have told corning. Unless perhaps they knew it and wanted the Instant Pot name for whatever reason

I have a Vent-a-hood that is great. I've no idea about a comparison to commercial hoods, but mine really sucks!

The newer AC seems no better than Calphalon at a much higher price. (I like Calphalon)

Crispy rice, nuts, croutons do better in a salad than chips. Or crispy fried onions

Between Steam Boy, a pot of water and Zoj the iPot is unused

I gave my iPot to our daughter. I have a Fagor t hat I use yearly or so

I always thought that iPot did too many things. It was a dizzying array of functions that most people would never need. Engineers run amok. Once they got done with different sizes there were no more line extensions to make.

They may also have saturated their market and had only wedding gifts left as new business

I think I remember a review by the estimable Inquirer reviewer. Sounded like a manic mess to me.

I probably used up my freebies

You are messing with us aren't you.

So much to comment on. I'll restrain myself. FDA approves medicines that at the wrong dose might be harmful. That's not approving a poison. MSG is not dangerous. Ever eat a bag of Doritos? That's a shitload of glutamate. Nobody has died. Medical writers and reporters are among the most uninformed, stop listening to them. They'll say anything for a click.

Rotovap is kind of a no heat distillation. Anything volatile (ie flavor) will come off and probably at a lower temp than the water you are trying to remove I think I'd experiment with shorter times to hopefully concentrate flavor , but leaving a usable liquid behind. Its not obvious to me that this would work.

What ever happened to Ed Levine after Serious Eats was bought?

Much much better

Haven't had it in a while. The regulation method is to cut out a tiny wedge to prevent curling. Looks like a pacman.

woof it is good stuff though

About the size of 3 Spams, though. And far better. @rotuts you can get smaller tranches at amazon too

Marconda's Meats, Taylor Pork Roll, 16 oz (eG-friendly Amazon.com link)

Have you considered Taylor Pork roll? Far superior to SPAM.
