    Percolator fun!

    Thanks Terry, I'll look into that. I've been out of the dishwasher loop for a while, but it seems to me and I know you know that Cascade Complete with Bleach is probably a good thing all around!

    How to bake a cake..........

    Speak for yourself Toggle ;-) Anyway, so what do newer ovens use? Is it some sort of computerized microchip thing? My Caloric holds its temp perfectly. I do have to set it 75 degrees below only because the temp dial is not original and doesn't match up correctly. I don't like gas ranges, but...

    First Whirlpool dishwashers

    Thomas, that dishwasher is definitely a Whirlpool. Our Whirlpool dws had a similar appearance in the 70s. Any speculation as to why Brazilians don't like to use dishwashers, electing instead to store things inside?

    Percolator fun!

    Pete, I have had the round discs (the best I ever had were some Mr. Coffee branded ones I found at an estate sale that were made out of better than usual paper), but normally I use a wraparound type filter. It's basically a square of filter paper with a hole punched in the center and the four...

    The 15 Creepiest Vintage Ads Of All Time

    Thomas I'm glad you were able to transfer the ads over here. A postage meter is used in businesses (at least here in the states) as a method of applying postage to outgoing mail and packages. You take it to the post office (maybe you can do it online now) and have a set amount of postage placed...

    Gugelhupf cake -- dedicated to Mixfinder

    Toggle, I think the mistake many people make in recipes involving creaming is not creaming long enough. I often tell people to get everything blended, crank er up to medium speed and go read a book! LOL

    Gugelhupf cake -- dedicated to Mixfinder

    Toggle, the best thing I've found for Bundt pans is the Pam baking spray. That baby will just slide right out of there like a knife through hot butter! I have a Flame Red Bundt pan from the 70s, with nonstick interior. It weighs a ton. I think some of them were made out of heavier gauge metal...

    1949 G.E. Electric Sink/Dishwasher Permanently Installed; My 1st anniversary on aw.org today; Upcom

    What a beautiful piece, congratulations! That garbage disposal is certainly no slouch, wow! If only they made them half as good as that now! Enjoy in good health and I hope you have a wonderful time with your upcoming event. I so enjoyed all the pictures of machines on the Super Forum too.

    PINK Maytag A700 & DE701 in Florida... but OMG the price!

    Oh Greg those are beautiful machines, congratulations! I hate when people on Ebay attempt to take advantage of people like that. Have there been sets that have sold for more? Yes, but in new or at least better condition than these apparently are, or a rarer survivor.

    First Whirlpool dishwashers

    Thanks Mrcleanjeans, I never knew any of that! My favorite Whirlpool d/w from the RCA Whirlpool days was made probably in the 1960s. Its cycles were identified with A, B, C, etc like some Kenmore washers, and like a number of Whirlpool dishwashers did into the 70s I think. This particular...

    HP N270

    Thanks J2400. I discovered today that one of the guys that works at the reception desk at my gym has one, he seems to really like it.

    The 15 Creepiest Vintage Ads Of All Time

    Somehow I knew it was going to be one of those Lysol ads. (oh my) The Chase and Sanborn one must be from the I Love Lucy era. Very fun and interesting..

    Percolator fun!

    Gary I have that last one. Stopped working though. :-( Until I came across it though, I never knew Corning had made percs in other than the traditional "Corningware" style. The first time I saw a GE on Ebay with that greenish finish, I thought someone was trying to pass of junk on Ebay as...

    Here is a frosting recipe for everyone

    DJ, when I was in primary school many years ago, I think it was assumed that the US was eventually going to convert. We learned some about the metric system in school, and for a while there were even highway signs expressing distance in both miles and kilos. We have 2 litre bottles of soda, but...

    HP N270

    Oh dear Thomas, I have a ZV6000. I hope I am not going to meet a similar fate. This is my second HP and touch wood, save for a virus on this one I had to take it in for, they both have been great. I always say I want a Mac but whether I will actually spring for it when the time comes remains to...

    Kevin's Birthday Cake

    Besides a lot of old ones, I have a set like the ones on the left. They are nice pans. There is restaurant supply store near me that sells all sorts of wonderful things, including those and parchment circles already cut to fit various size pans. I never knew about the not greasing the pan. I'll...

    Kevin's Birthday Cake

    Jeff, if you want you can do a file save as on the thread and save it to your computer. You wouldn't get every single post made after, but in a case like this, you'd have the recipe and info to save for future use.

    Kevin's Birthday Cake

    Thanks for that info/report, Kelly! I knew there was something familiar with those Cuisinart mixers-apparently they have their roots in Kenwood! I have my old standby Hobart-made K45, which I purchased new and which celebrates its 25th birthday this fall. I'll always keep it even if I ever...

    Percolator fun!

    Thanks Veg, and I love your placemats! Kelly, I don't believe I've ever seen that grinder with a black base. That is my favorite model of the KA grinders. Gary, you have just the most delightful collection.

    PENNCREST

    Definitely a Sunbeam-from probably the early 60s. Good mixers and fun to have the box too! They were sold under the Sunbeam name in the same colors as the stand mixers and in chrome.
