Walter Von Moo Moo Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 (edited) Think of an espresso pot. Use it over a very low flame and it will brew some coffee. Use it over a high flame and your walls will be splattered with coffee. You can control a gas flame. You can't control the heat output on an electric stove. The electric stove is either on or off, there's no high or low setting.

I didn't have any trouble at all, embedding memes in the memes thread and so, when I use exactly the same procedure in this thread without a satisfactory result, I have to assume that the problem is outside of my control.

1pooh4u Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 You can use an electric range. Unless you’re using the cheapest piece of shit available, it’s not just on or off.

Raptorpat Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 Induction cooking patents have been around for a century, they really went commercial in the 1950s (most likely after the technology was refined to allow for safe cooking on military submarines), and induction is popular in Europe. It did not become commercially successful in the US because it was prohibitively expensive (only relatively recently has the cost leveled out) and because the natural gas lobby pulled off a masterful branding campaign to convince Americans that burning fossil fuels in enclosed spaces is both totally safe and they classiest way to cook. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't take offense to this, bud, but don't be so harsh on the guy. I had an acquaintance in high school who had to get a pacemaker during our senior year, and as far as I knew at the time, he wasn't a smoker. (If he had been, it hadn't been for long.) It turned out he was born with a heart ailment. He kept it hidden pretty well until the moment he needed to get the pacemaker. (For the record, this isn't in support of Packard either.)
