minus-square@papalonian@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink7•2 months agoWater foaming when heated is caused by impurities in the water rather than the heating mechanism. So whatever is causing your water to foam is in it either way
minus-square@earphone843@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglish3•2 months agoIt’s because the microwave gets the water a bit hotter than boiling. Just give it like 15 seconds and it shouldn’t foam.

minus-squaremadjolinkfedilink2•2 months agoHahaha good point. 😄 Ah well, I have a decent kettle now, I don’t have to use my microwave anymore to make hot water, so I’ll continue to use that.
