  1. @TdeV Both machines work well - I use the smaller one (1 lb loaf) when I don't foresee the need for much bread - the larger one (2 lb loaf) does when I expect a lot of sandwiches I asked if someone had found one that was an unexpected improvement on either of those machines - they both have drawbacks (hard to read LCD panel on both) but both are very servable p
  2. Another EDIT! of my original post My bread machines are BOTH Zojirushis - the one I miss identified as a Breville was in fact the Home Bakery Virtuoso® Breadmaker BB-PAC20 Next time I'll put a little more thought into my words 😒 p
  3. I should have added my Zo is the Zojirushi BB-HAC10 p
  4. I have a Breville Virtuoso and a Zojirushi - both were highly rated at the time and both do good loaves - but times change - what's your take? p
  5. Have you considered a stone instead of a steel - maybe not as good but cheaper p
  6. Appreciate the weight and convenience aspects - but your oven will take longer to preheat due to the increased heat mass p
  7. @blue_dolphin - mine are similar to yours https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B099J5YZZX/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 What I like is the small size which clings to your hand and the dexterity they lend and the "grippy" bits make them dependable p
  8. Air fryer/convection oven/APO = Good heating element/strong fan The secret to an air fryer's success/popularity is it's limited capacity which amplifies everything' p
  9. I would suggest without because of more heat mass - besides how often will you be handling it when it is hot? p
  10. @Maison Rustique Happened to me as well, mine were only about 5 years old and it was because of "Deet" insect spray - it actually ate into the frames p
  11. Anyone tried this on fish filets? In an Air Fyer? p
  12. Two solutions to creosote build up: 1. Chimney sweep 2. Chimney fire p

  17. An aside - Anova has published a recipe for Home Cured Bacon, using a chamber vac - may not be news to many of you, but was to me: https://oven.anovaculinary.com/recipe/vtQJZYP4ioLnmJJlGEVu?utm_campaign=Food Nerd Spotlight%3A Cody Splane [CVAC] 9%2F13%2F23 (01H9P5CACGSM44V6FAB01736HM)&utm_medium=email&utm_source=Oven Content Preference Segment&_kx=Wa0km46UIWEH3mHErC3pRla9FuOijo9V2Eo-RDUvmfA%3D.Kxfd42 p

    Food recalls

    Interesting take on food recalls: https://apnews.com/article/food-recalls-objects-trader-joes-banquet-a7c2337b14b1cd539edbeaec7dc644d4 p
  19. I think you'd be safe using any E26 base LED bulb - I searched Amazon using that search term and came up with hundreds Waterproof? - maybe some steam from boiling veggies? - grease splatters? - not much - it's not like it's going to be underwater Although an LED bulb is not vacuum sealed it is sealed, I would think to warrant going in a range hood Again I did an Amazon search for "E26 Range Hood LED" and came up with 9 specific choices Good luck 😄 p
  20. Important considerations: Blade size - 8 inch minimum 200 - 300 watts ? Most important - your purpose (use it a few times then it collects dust) - cleaning is a major chore which often dictates the frequency of use - slicing cheese? not all slicers will do it It's like a food processor - great tool, but would you drag it out to chop an onion? p

    Vitamix clones

    I shop quite a bit on Amazon, but one thing I've learned is to never trust anything on Amazon - anyone can be a seller and say anything they want. p
