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.
- 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.
- Are you sure about the waterproofing? You can usually steam in an oven.
  
  Got an air fryer here with a steamer mode, so that definitely doesn't 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.
- Just stick it in a plastic bag, duh
- 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?
- Magic machine goes bum bum
