I was wondering how you tell how far along you are in the cooking process with the vacuum tube solar cookers?
Is it time? smell? can you see the food? or do you have to open it and look? And if you do have to look, does that increase the cooking time depending on how impatient you are?
Also given the long skinny nature. I'm curious if baguettes work.
Can you fit an oven thermometer in there? I think the vacuum tubes get hotter than you can get with less insulated cookers.

We open it and taste it.

A bit, it'd be like opening the oven to look at the food. Our understanding is that tubes cook at around 200'C, so we monitor it closely.

We're planning to try bread soon.

We'd like to get one, but we haven't yet.
