    No, if you’re using high power for anything longer than like 20 seconds to nuke a coffee or something, you’re microwaving wrong.

    Most things are 👌 3:00 @ Power Level 6 (60% on, 40% off)

      Yup, totally agree. Changed my microwaving habits a few years back. 3 minutes at about 600 watts works like a charm for just about everything. Add a minute or so if you’re heating soup or something else with a lot of mass/water.

      I always did 2 minutes at maximum power previously and it was always like the surface of the sun on the outside and cold on the inside.
