  1. Update: my arms are shaking and I'm sitting down to rest. The oven is in position and the latest firmware is installed. Some initial observations... The oven is large. The oven is heavy. The oven is capacious. My kitchen counter was filthy. The provided pan is flimsy, several steps below that of the CSO. One step above tinfoil. The racks on the other hand seem sturdy. There is no clock. While technically not required, I would say the app is necessary. For one thing you cannot update the oven firmware without the app. And as we all learned from the WSJ article, the oven cannot cook artichokes with the initial firmware. I've written product firmware in my time but nothing that involved artichokes. An annoyance with the app is that it is a native iPhone app. I use a tablet. For me the app displays upside down. Even the Paragon induction app is better. Which is not to say the functionality of the anova app is bad. I hear it postpones dementia to read things upside down.
  2. My oven has been sitting downstairs for four hours while I try to summon the energy to do something about it. What is four hours when it's been four years? Meanwhile I hope no one steals it.
  3. Reminds me of a favorite movie: 1, 2, 3.
  4. This current thread might be helpful... https://forums.egullet.org/topic/161513-caramel-made-from-syrup/
  5. You are probably aware Falk offers induction bottom pans. I'm using one at the moment.
  6. I thought there was only one other location. Could you list all three?
  7. "And even though it takes up counter space, it won’t necessarily replace your toaster." I found it interesting anova had to update the firmware to address artichokes. Richard Olney still says not to steam them.
  8. Where you live, maybe. In New Jersey chocolate is taxed. But add above a certain amount of flour to that chocolate and it is considered a cookie and therefor not taxed. Mixed bags of chocolate with flour and without flour have special rules.
  9. Indeed, amazon shows the iSi out of stock. But they do have the wide version of the iSi that might not be a bad choice.
  10. My favorite is iSi but it has to be red.
  11. Everything cleaned up, thanks. Not my finest oatmeal ever.
  12. I shall never again neglect to stir steel cut oats.
  13. Is that the bread in your jam picture?
  14. Sort of bizarre. Should a normal person get it or not?
  15. I got my shipping notice and a FedEx tracking number.
  16. Beat you. I bought gravy in a jar.
  17. Looks at calendar...was sort of hoping for a shipping notification by now.
  18. The toast link I posted seems to be broken. But the settings were: top and bottom elements, 300F, 10% steam.
  19. Do you steam your potatoes whole? Do you remove the skin after the potatoes are cooked?
  20. Till you drop one.
  21. The ice cream book is a hint.
  22. Remember Shoprite is a franchise operation so your mileage may, and probably will, vary.
