I just use the same power setting for everything. It’s not like my shitty microwave is consistent enough for it to matter.
I have never learned how to change the microwave power setting, and now I am too afraid to try it
It just turns off the element that emits the waves for a percentage of the time so the heat has a chance to spread out more evenly. My problem is that I skim the instructions for the time, miss that it says medium power, and burn my item to a crisp on accident.
I think the active component in a Microwave Oven is called the Magnetron, not the element. Both are usually turned on and off for partial power though.
