Hmm, I have a Handy Prep, DFP-3. It has a riveted blade, but the site is telling me that my model isn't recalled. I wonder if I should call the number in a day or two.

The only kitchen supply store in my area requires a sales tax exemption certificate. Know any good online ones?

dino. posted:On a stove top model, the heat will get significantly higher than the electric model. So if you’re going to do a popping of spices, then add beans, and then pressure cook, it’ll be possible on the stove, whereas the electric will never get hot enough. Also, the stove top doesn’t scream that obnoxious “overheat” error like the instant pot does. My sister in law has one, and she ends up using it for potatoes. The rice cooker does the rice. The stove top pressure cookers of various sizes do everything else. The instant pot is relegated to potatoes, because it sucks at anything else Indian. You can also just ignore the burn/overheat error to some extend. The heat will come back on in a minute and try again.

I managed to break the handle off of their garlic press. It was OK until then I guess.

Are the microwave/convection combi units any good? I mostly seem them in reference to RVs, but I'm thinking about one for home. I don't think we really have room for a toaster oven in our kitchen, and think it could take the place of one for reheating baked goods. Or is it just going to be a bad microwave + a bad TO?

I don't know if this is helpful, but I looked up a how it's made video of bacon production to see how they do it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GAqIynamBMY&t=220sMurgos posted:Maybe one of those paper cutters?

I think my dishwasher manual has a chart telling you how much detergent to use based on the hardness of your water (in grains/gallon). If you have water utility they usually publish the hardness. This random manual has it on page 9: https://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=49-4000218-1.pdf and says to use the prewash when the hardness is over 12 grains/gal. Or if it's extra dirty.

I was researching what kind of gas was ok for food, so I could get a dual-purpose torch for food/plumbing. Bernzomatic said both Propane or MAPP-Pro were ok. Then I realized a gas grill usually uses Propane so I went with that.

Creami trip report: First batch is the strawberry ice cream from the recipe book. The pint looked a little crumbly, but taking a spoon to it immediately smoothed it. I didn't bother with a re-spin. Scooped perfectly. It was definitely ice cream, but had a filmy mouth-feel. I'm guessing too much fat/not enough air. Maybe I could try half-and-half instead of the heavy cream next time? In the freezer is a "dole whip" recipe

Anne Whateley posted:In traditional ice cream makers, that filminess means it's been churned for too long and it's starting to turn into butter. I'm not really sure how to translate that to the creami, since it's not really churned at all.

I have that rack too, but it usually sits in the main rack. If I need extra room then I set it up right on the door to load and then slot it in when full.

I was looking at them recently because I was tired of filling my electric kettle so often. Turns out they aren't much bigger. My kettle holds 1.75L and they have 2L and 3L options. I didn't feel like they were big enough to justify replacing the working kettle. We were also wondering how the pump parts can be cleaned, but didn't get that far.

There's something about ice cream machine reviews. I saw one review of a variety of machines. They got to the one where you freeze the bowl and "It says to freeze it overnight, but we did an hour. Hmm, it's not really freezing." They put the result in the freezer and it came out like poo poo. If they had redone it following the directions it would have made a good point about the compressor machines allowing you to be spontaneous but it was just mindless.

They closed all their outlet stores, even the one in Corning, NY closed. They had the world's largest pyrex measuring cup there. It wasn't made out of pyrex though.

I remember getting an email with the subject "Racism Update" and saying "what the gently caress" out loud. It was the Penzey's newsletter. Apparently the previous issue told racists that they were not welcome and to unsubscribe. They had an update on how many people unsubscribed.

obi_ant posted:Anyone here hotpot a lot? I'm trying to decide between a gas set-up or an induction one. Or should I get one of these all in one units? Everyone I know has two gas set ups for different soup bases, but I just don't really want to worry about the gas. I went for induction and the split pot. I also didn't want to deal with the gas running out, that happened a couple times when we did it at friend's houses.

I was looking at a new gas range and noticed they have some safety features that require electricity, and therefore can't be manually lit when the power is out. Is this a new regulation? Or is there a brand that still works this way?

I understand the feature is supposed to turn off the gas if your burner is blown out or because your pot boiled over or something like that. I don't think it's a "turn off because the power is out" but turns off because the flame detection requires power. I think I saw one model that made you hold the knob in for a couple seconds like a hot water heater. I figured all things being equal I'd rather have one that works when the power is out, but I'm not going to hunt down an old model if most are doing this now. I can buy a camp stove if I'm that worried about it. I also discovered I get a employee discount on Whirlpool/Maytag/Kitchenaid through work, looks like $400-$500 off of what HD sells them for.
