Yeah uh idk where you think these things are taught

I tried wrapping did in foil. The foil melted and then set fire.

Edit: I was on grill

Uh... Bro? I've used Tin Foil in 650 degree BBQs. I doubt you used foil.

The minimum ignition temperature of aluminum DUST is 750°C. That means your grill was at almost 1400°F. That’s enough to literally forge titanium.

Sorry, but I do not believe you.

Uhhh, pretty sure that aluminum isn't flammable

[–] tyler@programming.dev 1 points 3 hours ago

The ignition point (flammable point) of aluminum dust is 750°C, so yeah it’s flammable, but at that temp you literally can forge titanium so yeah there’s zero chance what they said is true.

Everything is flammable if you put enough heat in it.

Maybe they were baking in a fusion reactor and accidentally made plasma brownies

Pretty much everything is flammable if you can get it hot enough.

The foil melted and then set fire.

The fuck?

[–] Passerby6497@lemmy.world 5 points 16 hours ago

Are you sure you didn't confuse wax paper for parchment paper? Because it sounds like you tried to bake with wax paper.

Aluminum has a melting point of 1,220°F (660°C). What brand oven were you using to achieve these temperatures?

Rooster is full of cockamamie, or it was parchment paper.
