    Sure, but the graph I linked to shows the difference in temperature between the edge and the center. Edit: as someone pointed out, it's the edge of the food and not the oven ... oops!

    Turns out food will heat up faster if you place it closer to the edge, since microwaves bounce off the oven walls. If your food is thicker on one end, put the thicker part closer to the edge.

    I have a Baratza and also use Urnex Grindz. I would not use rice and I recommend against getting any water at all on the blade. The other parts that are plastic (lid, hopper basket, etc) just get a hand wash with dish soap, and I air dry them for like a day before reassembling.
