This week Ibring you two delicious DOE’s (Design of Experiments) as a Thanksgiving treat. The First, Applying DOE to Microwave Popcorn, is a real favorite of mine. Mark Anderson and Hank Anderson share a Design of Experiments that identifies what really matters when making microwave popcorn.

In the second, Recipe for Pound Cake Experiment, Mark Anderson and Patrick Whitcombexperiment to giveusthe optimalrecipe for pound cake derived by DOE. Thanks toStat-Ease Inc. for these case studies.

So now all you Green Belts and Black Belts have something to share over Thanksgiving dinnerwhen someone asks you, “Whatdo you do for a living?” Bon Appetit.
