Jerry, also try the temps 60-70 C for the 30 minute time. I'm curious to see what that level of heat/time does to a sample. If one were to put a dinner plate of food in for 10-15, it would be nicely heated to eat. I'm wondering about the variables of too-done food--one thing different might be that there's lots more oily component in food, which helps it brown. Leather would have lots less.
BTW, I spent a little time on the Horn (cow, not musical) Forum a while back, while getting info about making a powder horn for my son. I don't think you will get in anywhere as much trouble with the wife as they do with theirs when they simmer up a batch of "horn soup" to soften them (horns, not wives) for adjustment!
