The max cooking temp per setting. Not the max holding temp per
setting. These are different.

You would never expect to cook a pizza in one of those insulated
carriers that pizza places use, but they do keep the food hot for
awhile. To test it, you would cook a hot pizza, temp it, then check
the temps over time. You would never put a cold pizza in there and
then complain that it did not get up to the right temp.

For an accurate test, you need to cook it to a hot temperature, note
that temp, then switch it to warm, and take temps over time.

I expect the company would tell you it should reach 212 (boiling
point) on high, like mine did.

Sounds like she needs a good bitch-slap!! :-)




I can relate to that ;-)

I've been the 'house-bitch' for about 17 years now. Thankfully all the
kids have grown and flown the coop, so the hard part is over!! Went and
got a job every now and then to "do my bit", but found working with
civilians to be entirely too damn frustrating!!

we are.

We are Queenslanders.

We're the people that they breed tough, north of the border.

We're the ones that they knock down, and we get up again."
