Re: Microwave Operation???

I dont know if this will help anyone, but I usually start my microwave on high for the initial heat of 2 min. which actually takes 1 min 40 sec. and then go to med. in short burst of 20 sec. or so. I know all microvaves are diffent but this might get some of you close. Always remember to stir every time you open the door. It works for me and hopefully you will have the same result's.

That's interesting. Do you get many bubbles that way and what is the ratio old/new do you use. I keep tossing my scraps in a box. When the box fills, I put another in it's place. I have at least 100 lbs sitting here.
