Rampent Posted July 17, 2012 Author Share Posted July 17, 2012 No - a good toasting fork with a long handle - hold the bread about 6 inches from the fire (avoiding the smoke) and check progress regularly. Haven't had toast made this way for the best part of 40 years I only have a shovel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shane39 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 When i toast bread under a lekky grill,it always turns out hard. When i toast bread under a gas grill it's lovely and soft. Can't understand why??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't understand why??? It is a promble for sure wayne. The electric ug semi conducters give a wave of volts or something. Gas is a natural flame - hence the coal fire treatment works' the best. I don't have a coal fire though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should give the toasted effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My toast always jumps out of the thing that burns it and lands on the kitchen floor.(does bread have feelings?)I have now spread butter all over the kitchen floor. so problem solved,unfortunately I cannot afford marmalade as I have spent all my pension on vodka and bingo.

PeteMorris Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 It beats me why toaster manufacturers make toasters with a setting that cremates and sets fire to toast! What's that all about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubble3082 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 The best toast was always done over an open coal fire. If you don't have an open fire, simply place a slice of bread onto a fork and hold it above a lighter. You can create such pretty pictures in the bread Unfortunately it takes 4 and a half months to make one slice of toast, but your artistic side will be more than satisfied Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anywebsite Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Posh toasters have a control on them, you can set the time so that it doesn't burn it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
