HUGE TOAST COMPLAINT!

[Midnight Railroader]

Hey all i have a question i hope you guys can help me with, i currently use Toastmann E-Z Toast on my layout and i am thinking of expanding and want to use Toasatlas flex toast in code 80, now i know i will have to shim the flex toast to compansate for the height differance, what i need to know is will one pat of butter be enough or would two be better, please let me know, thanks in advance for your toasteriffic advice.

Butter?

That's archaic. Real toast modelers know that Country Crock makes a much better shim.

I need to gap some toast.  A guy I met in a LTS says that I should just use my Skippy Toast Cutter, but that I had to be careful how I used it.  Also, something about wearing glasses in case a crumb flies. 

Also, what should the Toast Control setting be if I only want medium toast?  My DigiToaster manual is not very clear. 

Anybody out there help me?

This might help , we bond rail gaps with it and it's mostly portable,just don't let the power company know. The 600v bond welders out to toast a whole loaf, for those days when unexpected company drop by.

Oh Midnight Railroader your responce truely saddens me!, don't you know that country crock is off the shelf RTS (ready to spread) stuff where as the true toast craftsman such as myself not only raised the dairy cow and churned my own butter, i had to grow the trees and use them to build the barn to raise the cow, heck i even planted the crop to feed the cow to..................., well you get the idea, like i said i am worried about the future of toasting!.

I need to speed compenstate my toast between my DCC toasters.  One burns a lot faster than the other.  Does anybody have any tips how to do this?

I wish I could come up with something creative to add to this thread, but all I can say is:

ROTFLMAO!

DNFTToast!!!  Toast alert!!!

[corksean12]

I'm only a toast dabbler. Obviously.

Pry the toast out with a fork before it burns.

Silly Garry, Pop Tarts are for kids. No serious toast modeler would be caught dead eating them (quickly brushes fruit filling from face).

You and the other toast dilettantes are the reason the toast hobby is dying. Get serious about it. Toast is not only the World's Greatest Breadform, it's also art.

Incredible... Absolutely incredible! 228 posts and no mention of whether ornot this Toaster is NMRA compliant, Minimum radius of the toast in question or if the toast comes undecorated?

This begs the question to be asked...

What came first? the Toaster or the Toast...

It all depends on the Toaster, some are some aren't.  Minimum radius depends on the era of the toaster.  But if you want really good toast, try the coffee shop across the street.  I hear rhoward is buying this month.  (Well somebody hasn't paid his bill in a long while!)

I am interested in getting the ToastMaster Tu-Slice.  Some threads here have complained that it doesn't meet National Bread Slicing Standard ST-25 for slice thickness.  Any help here would be appreciated.  BTW, if it makes any difference, I am using McGavin's 100% whole wheat.

Is French toast really toast, or just battered & fried bread?

Discuss.

[Weighmaster]

I am wondering if it might be worthwhile to go DCC with my toaster system.  If I use a block system to isolate and individually control slices of variable width (I scratch-build my own bread), can I incorporate a DCC auto reverse module to unburn toast?  And if so, at what unburn level will I have the greatest comPATTIEbility conformity with butter?  Do I taste test toast or test toast taste, and what probes do I use with my multitoastester?  Gary

What does NASA use to unburn toast?

I'll have four whole chickens and some dry white TOAST!

I can not believe how far off topic this thread has gotten!  I admit that I have been guilty of straying myself, but Thermonuclear Toasters, cream cheese and poptarts are not what we were discussing in the beginning.

 The topic is "HUGE TOAST COMPLAINT!"  Where are the trolls when they are needed??????  If you all can not stay on topic... I'm toast.

Later,

  Have you tried adjusting the speed step settings,that or make sure that all the bread matches the NMRA's recomended slice thickness and is crust width compliant,thinner non-conforming bread will toast faster.

I'll have a BLT on toast, hold the MAYO!

[selector]

I agree..hold the MAYO.  After their nasty lawsuit and the review that Toasters Today gave their latest model....no thanks!

[andrechapelon]

I guess I picked the wrong day to give up drinking.

Or was it smoking.

No, it was drugs.

BTW, do you like gladiator movies?

It was SNIFFING GLUE!

Maybe Al should try to be constructive, and start a how-to thread called The Mayo Clinic.

Has anyone determined where the toast came from and who made it?

All toast is not equal. Texas toast for example, would not very likely to run well on minimum-radius ("kitchen table") layouts.

NMTA standards for compliance have yet to be approved. This is why some brands of toasters do not play well with others.
