so, i played with my toaster. i set it to mid way - toast burnt to just about (and i will eat anything so my tolerance i guarantee surpasses most!) edible levels

Quarter way, not toasted enough so wallah! Set the thing to a 10 oclock position assuming 7 oclock is the macines 0.

So....

Turn it to max, toast is billowing smoke way way way wayyyyyyyyy before its time to pop.

So. you clever kids out there . . . .whats the point of the max temp on a toaster?

I dunno about this but I once disabled the automatic popup on an old toaster then forgot about my toast. Until the smoke alarm went off.

Hm, older toasters don't get as hot. I used to have perfect toast around 6/10, now I need to put it around 9/10 to get the same effect. So maybe the max temp on your toaster is set really high to make it more future-proof!

Wow my toaster must be really weak. I set it to 5 normally for bagels and it doesn't come near to smoking.

these salmon bags . . . ? in all cases im always dissatisfied by the uneven toasting of my bread . .getting anything in there other than very small insects boggles my mind

Lol fucking toasters!
I am weird and i have my temp set to like 2/3 i like it barely toasted (light brown, don't like any black on it ) But i know where your coming from, even when i used to have sandwich bags to put in to make "toasties" i never put it above 5 :S

Some people actually put bread into their freezer and then into the toaster for defrosting and toasting at the same time.

And pop-tarts might need a little more heat than some mostly-air toast

With my toaster the settings assume you're starting cold. If i set to 4 from cold I'll get golden brown. If I make a second piece right away it'll get burnt to the point that normally a 6 or 7 would. Could be something similar?

The reason that there is a max temp on the toaster is for the tryhards (like myself) who micro their toast to golden perfection.

I eat bread you need the max setting for and it's so fucking good. When it isn't toasted it sucks tho.

It takes quite a long time of playing and watching a video game before you realize how bad at it you really are.

I have bought a new toaster, my last one simply couldnt take the strain. again 7 oclock is the machines 0, 12(4) oclock burns this to a crisp to a point its smoke detector setting off EVERY time. (you need to put it slightly under 9oclock(2.8) for the perfect toast btw) just what the fuck would the 4 oclock do(8)!!!

I imagine like that machine in 'The Core' . . this thing will send me to the center of the earth.
