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.
Mine only got 3 settings + thawing. Let me overclock this sucker to 200%.
Not if you use an inverter microwave.
