The plexiglass case for Modernist Cuisine wasn't as tough as they hoped - so this time around the case is stainless. Apparently they have made some stainless cases with the logo for Modernist Cuisine on them for folks with the plexiglass ones that want to swap them out.

 

 

I need info on how to get one, my case arrived cracked and I worry about it simply falling to pieces one of these days. I did not bother trying to return it as I purchased it early on, and they were sold out for a long time. Anyway, a steel replacement case would be great!

Im very curious about that.

I can live without an electric knife.*  Yes, I was given one in the 1970's.

 

 

Edit:  I'd rather have an electron microscope.

 

 

 

If you give a woman an EM, the next thing she'll want is a cyclotron

Well I used to know how to use an EM.  There'd probably be a learning curve with a new cyclotron.

I'm of course not Kerry but I believe I read it had to do with the milling of rye flours.  Apparently (if memory serves) suitable rye flour is not available in the US.

Scanning or TEM?  And what do you want to examine with it?

Bread, of course.  Probably scanning for the purpose.  Haven't you seen the electron micrographs in the Modernist Bread calendar?

He said the best rye flour in the US was Bob's Red Mill.- you have to mill it finely yourself and it's till not the same as the European flours.
