Your last comment showed double posting on my browser and would not let me respond to you. I refreshed the screen and the second post was gone. Is that a site issue for anyone else?

He deleted his own duplicate while you were trying to reply to it. That's why I leave my duplicate posts.

I deleted it because I check to see if my post is as it should be, and I HATE duplicate posts; just in case I didn't mention it before. AND, if I see I have double posted I try to make sure I delete the dupe...

OK, back to toast.
After this thread grew awareness of my toaster troubles, we brought the old one up from the basement and it did a wonderful job making toast. Well, it is a toaster. In my excitement that "new" meant "better" a while back, I bought a new toaster that we were never really happy with and forgot about the one in the basement.

Anyway, the one in the basement does a great job gets two thumbs up. I can't find the exact model but Cuisinart makes a bunch that look almost exactly like it. They seem to have the innards the same and just doctor up the appearance to suit different people. Anyway, one that looks almost exactly like mine is this CPT-320 Cuisinart. It's priced at $38.91 on Amazon and the link is below.

Amazon.com: Cuisinart CPT-320 Compact Stainless 2-Slice Toaster, Brushed Stainless: Kitchen & Dining

I think it works well because is so simple. I can look in and see the glowing coals making my good toast quick. It reminds me of the old 1950's toaster with open coils that offered the risk of imminent burns and shock but did a great job. Anyway, that one made good toast and so does this one.

That's my toaster story and I'm sticking with it. :D

Don't let double post get to you that bad. Much more important things in life to worry about. If the site thinks what you have to say if so important that it needs to be said twice let it. Just roll on.

I have have had 2 or 3 of my comments double post in the last few days and I did not do it. Seems like the site had a mind of its own. I just left mine on. Ken Sweet

Speaking of Toast and Maple Syrup...... how do I tell its real and from the US, or is the Canada stuff just as good. I have an old 1/4 jug from Vermont in the freezer - been there 10 years or so and crystalized. Is there a safe way to get it flowing again with out running it? Got it for Christmas way back when and when we moved I stuck it in the freezer for the trip (used a portable generator at night to keep the freezer frozen along with dry ice). That was the last time I moved myself.

PS I prefer lightly toasted Sour Dough :thumbsup:...but Doc now says bad for me (Diabetes)... so moderation.

PSS got double posted and still no email notice

the site has been eratic for days now. I can't get other tabs to open.. they just spin, time out or 502 error out usually.

I don't think you can tell the difference between northern VT, ME or NH maple syrup compared with syrup from Quebec, PQ. It's the same tree so the same syrup. I've had other trees blended in and had a struggle to know which is which. Syrup is not a standardized thing and all sorts of issues affect taste, and that doesn't mean good or bad. Syrup at the start of the season tastes different from other times. Boiled thick or thin matters and to a degree. Start with the premise that all syrup is good, assuming clean containers, and go from there.

We store our excess syrup in the freezer and wife cannot recall any that went to sugar. Honey, yes, and the cure for that is to place the container in warm water until restored. She thinks try the same with the maple syrup but I think just eat it as sugar. Lots is made and sold that way every year. Pick up a fresh jug (quart) at Sam's Club or Costco for $11 and eat the old stuff alone, on vanilla ice cream, stirred in coffee or just straight up. Maybe taste a small sample first.
