Are you sure about the waterproofing? You can usually steam in an oven.

Okay this is a shitpost, but ffs don’t try this. That’s a small electric fan-forced oven. There’s a nonzero chance the airflow will splash water all over the inside, which is absolutely not liquid proof. Water + electricity == bad.

Got an air fryer here with a steamer mode - would be weird to have moisture-sensitive electronics inside the cooking part.

Probably depends on how fancy the air fryer is.
I’ve got a small, cheap air dryer. I think it was maybe $25 when I got it? It’s just got two settings - a knob to set the temperature and another knob to set a timer (analog timer that makes a ding noise when it’s done)
Inside it’s just a heating element like the ones you’d see on an old-school stove top, and a big fan to blow the hot air downwards. I doubt there’s any electronics in it - it’s probably just basic electrics. I don’t think the heating element would like being splashed with a liquid.

Yeah, its basically just a heating element with a fan, there should be nothing to break even if exposed to liquids.

Not liquid proof? How can you cook moist things in there then? Or things like chickens or beef joints etc that drip so much liquids?

I see your point. But how the hell is the mug not going to be hot either and you are able to just lift it out?

I mean that’s true too, assuming you don’t destroy your air fryer first.
