Oddbean new post about login | logout I’ve been meaning to buy a Dutch oven for stews. Which one are you using and what are some pros and cons to it?
We have a le creuset. Very happy with it, durable high quality, haven’t seen any cons
I live for my Le Creuset
i have chemistry background and steam baths are my favourite thing 72`C forever and ever amen, no matter as much as 30% variance in salinity
Steam room > Sauna although I like this sauna too
well, steam is less IR more conduction i think if your goal is to sweat like a pig then sauna
also, just to clarify: steam bath means one pot with boiling water at a gentle roll (about 85-90`c) with a second, isolated, sealed (usually) container with a second solution, often in a low boiling solvent like ethanol or heptane or similar it's also very handy for even lower boilers like methanol and diethylether, to keep them at a nice clip, just don't forget your boiling chips unless you like to have boiling hot solvent spit out the end of the condenser lol
