Sorry to piggyback your thread OP x"The numbers correspond to the toastiness of your toast. 7 seems to be the most toasty toast in lots of toasting cases. Has anyone ever used the 1 setting?? | |||

The numbers correspond to the toastiness of your toast. 7 seems to be the most toasty toast in lots of toasting cases.

Thank you, I’m smiling like a Cheshire Cat here lol xx"It gets better - I asked before what could possible handle 7 mins in a toaster! 'Frozen crumpet' I was told! Well, I am experimenting with a vegetarian diet. And that meant I bought a Quorn sausage patty for the first (and possibly only) time in my life. So I wondered, as you do, how long it would take, in a Dualit toaster, to render a Quorn sausage patty edible!
I can report it was 2 x 5, which was only 5 mins in total, during which time the crumbs that always live in the bottom of every toaster began to combust! | |||

In fact, it turns out that they don't really mean anything of real merit. Different toasters use different methods to time time their heating—be it a bi-metallic strip that changes shape to measure temperature increase or a capacitor that's charged and makes your slices pop up when a given voltage is reached. | |||
