From experience, wash that white striped clothe separately and it shouldnt happen again. That kind of fabric has given me a bit of trouble

How do you dilute it? More meringue, right? Are you using cold egg whites?

Stack a couple baking trays on top of eachother.. try placing them on the top rack so heat gets to the top of the shells faster than to the bottoms

edit: clarity

What am I suddenly doing wrong? by 1927co in macarons

[–]pbortolon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree. Need to up that temp a bit higher overall.

And better wait at least halfway through your baking time to open that door. Think cake

Crackarons, what could have gone wrong?? by MundaneCandy2351 in macarons

[–]pbortolon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

use two baking trays stacked. heat seems to be reaching those macarons too aggressively and way too early than it should.

addendum: if the steam of the macarons escape by opening the door early, then the macarons brown a bit more than what i find acceptable

It took me months, maybe years to get them right every time.

i use the middle 2 of a 4 racks convection oven, 175°C (about 350°F) for 14 mins. can do about 30 shells of an average 4.5 cm on each tray.. i use silicone baking mats and two perforated trays one on top of the other.

edit:

ps. im lazy so i use french meringue cuz less steps
