Re: im not crazy I SWEAR
MY mY mY ladies...lets learn those timers and moisture content of the food.
Its rather simple if you heat up a cup of water today...tomorrow it will be the same
Example..bread is rather fast..there is not a lot of moisture there
Cup o noodles will take a while due to its water content.
Hint...we are basically heating the moisture of the food.
On low moisture foods...we dont need alot of time as the microwave is very powerful for the moisture content within.
Hint...this is not linear however as heat has to travel to the mass of the food..the mass is absorbing the heat while the water is being heated.
Water boils at 212 F...so in effect a more powerful microwave isnt much faster in certain conditions once the water begins to boil more energy is merely a waste.
While the more powerful oven will bring the moisture to a boil faster..that is the only gain...once reached the only usable energy is that which is used to keep that maintained while the heat transfers to the remaining mass.
Thus why the damn things are so easy to use with sandwiches etc.
