cooking at cheap rates
ive got a chicken to cook for myself to eat over a couple of days, do i cut it in half cook it in the airfryer then other half when req, or the whole chicken in 1 go in main oven and when cooled down half in fridge
this is going in at 5pm to boost up any power savings

I suspect going on last year's power saving events the next test events will be a bit into January. But this is just based on the dates used last year so not conclusive. We have no more test events to be used by the end of the year.

that answerd that part when to cook it, but oven cook in 1 go or half and half in the airfryer

QrizB

I'd do half-and-half; cold chicken is nice but fresly-cooked hot chicken is nicer!

Hi all ,Out of the Octopus' tracker and Agile tariffs what is the most popular as it looks like better savings could be made with the Agile If you use the energy at the cheapest times ..Any cons and pros to think about Thanks

cheapest times are during the night, great if  you have batterys to charge or a ev, if its everyday usage tracker

Dont discount Agile either. Based on my usage over the past week,  they come out pretty similar. This is with no load shifting as I'm (stupidly)  currently on flexible...

The new tracker formula has made them very similar.

ring them.  In the end I had to do that as it took nearly 4 weeks to be transferred over.  But they did back date it for me.
