minus-squareGHiLA@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up0·22 days agoit’s sarcasm. Air fryers suck at boiling water. They’re basically anti-microwaves. Everything a microwave is good at, they suck at, and vice versa.

minus-squareGHiLA@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up0·22 days agoNo, no no. Lmao 🤣 Not halfway into the microwave, you silly. Halfway into the air fryer.

minus-squaredan@upvote.aulinkfedilinkarrow-up0·22 days ago That’s because it is basically a convection oven Technically it’s closer to an impingement oven than a convection oven. I’m surprised Alec didn’t mention impingement ovens at all in the video.
