Still seems like a hassle to have to pull that out. They should design something that’s more outwardly noticeable like a piece of clothing or maybe just a simple armband they can wear over their clothes that signifies they’re jewis-I mean legal or whatever.

Ya, I’m still new to this stove so it could just be an induction thing

Just measured a rolling boil at 212.9 so the thermometer ain’t lying I guess

Tried a smaller pot today and the temp was reading 200, completely still surface

I was trying to think of some kind of real world advantage it would give you. Not that I think you should try it but I wonder if it means you would be less affected by pepper spray.

And you’ve always been like that? Without having to build a tolerance?

Thank you, I can sleep soundly tonight

Well that’s a relief to hear I didn’t waste 6 hours of simmering time. Appreciate the first hand experience!

It’s an ikea stove that came with the place so I’m not expecting the best quality or accuracy I guess. The broth is done and it’s late so I’ll have to give my smaller pot a try tomorrow. I should probably look into a better single burner induction plate that adjusts by the exact temperature in the future though.

Well if I get botulism or something I’ll let ya know

There’s still about 2 litres of water in there. I am currently not in a submarine. I should call the Mythbusters.

Lid on and some salt in it. So no bubbles is considered normal for a simmer still?

100m above sea level, I’ve used both my instant read and leave in thermometers to check now, both say 203. Made sure not to touch the pot with the needles.

The problem with raising the temp is that I have an induction stove. It’s on the lowest setting now (L) and when I bump it up to the next setting (2) it is a full rolling boil even if I adjust the lid. There doesn’t seem to be any configuration to keep small consistent bubbles like the simmer setting on my old electric stove had.

I’ve measured the temp with my instant read as well as my leave in thermometer now and they do both say 203 but the zero bubbles is throwing me off.

The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak

I actually did enjoy the chicken flavour but I could have done with 1 quarter of the spice

The sweating and initial pain was nothing compared to the burning asshole I’ve had for the last 12 hours

I dipped a toothpick into Da Bomb hot sauce once and it was pure pain, no flavour came through at all

for the sake of learning, in what ways? As a non american I just get fed the stereotype that american liberals are blue haired lesbians who yell at everyone

Other than leaving headspace I guess I forgot to mention I only use widemouth jars so they don’t have the shoulders which could be an issue with expansion
