sweet vid AZN - i noticed what looked like a mark from the oil on the ti pad... is that a burn mark, residue mark, etc etc?
I have read that ti tastes better than glass but have also read conflicting reports of ti not supposed to being heated to that temperature and some sort of oxidation/offgassing will occur.
can anyone confirm/deny this or shed some additional knowledge?
The mark you see is a residue mark, when the pad is reheated most of it is burned off, eventually you have a "seasoned" area on the pad, this "seasoning" if you will is what is responsible for the better taste of the ti.
Honestly i have heard no reports of ti offing gasses and would really not be worried, people have been heating ti for a long time now and if their was a problem it would be pretty widespread imo.
I have no links to back any of this up and its all IMO/IME, if Spidey wants to come drop some knowledge on this bitch that would be great.
