Addendum too late to edit: Thinking about it while I made a coffee, saying the crystal structure affects the electron interaction is ass about:...

I think it easiest to explain it in terms of Curie temperature. All ferromagnetic materials have a temperature above which they lose their...

Ha, when I was working summers at a boat builder that built 12 meter America’s Cup racing sailboats the grumpy shop foreman made us polish and polish...

I'm getting a mesh basket.

and, according to my opinion, the most overrated and misunderstood material to have ever been added to the menu.

A former employer once told me: "There are two things to know about stainless steel: it aint stainless and it aint steel."

This reminds me of a test we took in elementary school, one where you had to color in the little circles so that a machine could tally the score. ...

Thanks for the post. Were it not for your post, I wouldn't even begin to suspect that austenitic steel is largely non-ferromagnetic. Blind spots...

Austenite can be made slightly magnetic by cold working. You're stretching my decades-old metallurgy memory (yes I should work on my flexibility) but...

An explanation I saw likened it to a lawyer not making a closing statement. The editorial page has laid out all this evidence and then forgoes the...

They are all 3-layered construction, but I can't remember what the middle is. Prolly aluminium. Interesting. Thank you. As an aside, my...

Two flavors of stainless steel are Ferritic and Austenitic. Ferritic has a body-centered cubic (BCC) microstructure, like iron. So it's magnetic....

Is your pasta pot aluminum cored?

Made from steel salvaged from a Soviet SSN, have you checked for radiation ?

Blimey, you are really spoiling us.

Yep, an induction hob boils water faster than an electric kettle.

Hahaha, there's not much to be told, really. This was European history, and I was a bit shit as the exam result so unequivocally showed. It may have...

By The Editors (Bloomberg Opinion) -- Is it possible that the hyperpartisanship and extreme polarization that has defined American politics for...

Homemade apple pie in exchange for blowing some leaves in my neighbor’s yard…I’ll take this deal all day long.

All that vegetarian stuff said (you guys are), the convection oven makes for a great large sized air fryer (which is really just a counter sized...

This is what we use. Obvs, you gotta adjust the size of everything….don’t know if that is what you mean for personal sized boules… ...

Outstanding! There has to be a story behind this?!

Granted I think all my experience on induction tops is in Europe. Even my friend's "cheap Ikea bullshit" induction top heated water faster than my...

I don't think there are many things faster than an electric tea kettle when it comes to boiling water. I think that's probably because of the physics...

Last year 5 restaurants in ATL were awarded Michelin Stars (four more were awarded last night as it turns out), and last week the wife and I...

The first time that I sat for the International Baccalaureate history subsidiary level exam, I got a score of 1. It utterly shocked everyone in my...

Your education is relevant for discussion because over the past four years, you keep on gratuitously reminding the forum about it. I expect...

Well, interesting take. I have a slightly different view but not by much. What wrecked the democratic party was the arrogance at the top of the DNC...

I’d say page six of this thread (i do 20 posts/page) beats Page Six of the NY Post.

Might switch.

You aren't reading the NY Post anymore? What about PAGE SIX! :)

It's a royal shame. Sebastian Smee with his art columns. Jennifer Rubin as one of few op-ed columnists who provide analysis (as opposed to making a...

I canceled my Post subscription this morning. Goddamn shame.

Folloup - I've been using the Steel Partner this summer. Got to say it is very good and rugged as heck. There is nothing to hate about the stove,...

It’s not required to endorse. In fact, by the way it went down, they may have actually strengthened the argument. That said, Jonathan Last (a...

Stay with the Everest and just get the 2X version...however the Everest is not as fuel efficient as the Camp Chef Mountaineer which uses about half...

If you're going to take these shots at me, I get to shoot back. I have an MA in American History and I am editing my thesis in Military History, and...

The billionaires are preemptively bowing to the fascist. Doesn’t bode well.

An endorsement by definition is not made by the news section of a newspaper, and this was the head of the editorial section (as in Will Lewis acting...

Friday night train from Manhattan.

Perhaps foolishly I look at coalition models with a bit of envy … the two party system seems so distorted by calculations about who can win based on...

Joe Biden was to be a "place holder" while the Democrats developed a candidate for 2024. In 2020, Biden was ramrodded to be the candidate even though...

I think the "outrage" is more that the decision seems to be due to Bezos acting to protect the rents he extracts from his monopsony at all costs.

Hilarious! Yes Minister and Yes Prime Minister were TV gold!

i think you are mistaken. I doubt the present two party system will produce a moderate. Both parties are largely beholden to their business...

As an information warfare guy, I guess I don't get the outrage over a newspaper not supporting a candidate. Are so emotionally invested in a...

I lied - Garro.

Interesting tines when Taylor Swift and Beyoncé exhibit more political courage than two of our largest newspapers.
