Boiling milk conundrum

Yawning boils milk faster than coughing

I just gotta wonder what the hell razor92 was searching for to have revived a thread from January 2007??? How to boil milk? What does yawning do?... I dunno..

Oi don't agree, Sean Connery would go to Legolaaand. I reckon most of the waves impact and are absorbed within the first cm or two. It's not a neutrino oven.

If you put a chicken leg in a microwave oven, the thin boney end cooks dry before the thigh even warms up.

that is simple. Water has a very high specific heat - takes a lot of energy to heat it. Bone does not - however to the microwave both are excited about the same, so the bone heats far quicker. Milk being 99% water..


Also have to count for the convection of water/milk which is the cause of hot water freezing before cold water will.


I would say both heat at a very similar rate.... with the small cup being quicker.
