Decarboxylation - I need a toaster oven - recommendations?

I prefer edibles over smoking and therefore need a good oven for decarboxylation of cannabis.

My kitchen oven has wild fluctuations in temp - up or down 10-15 deg F.
I do no mind the temp going under 240F but I certainly do not want it going over 240F

What sort of portable of portable toaster oven - with good temp control - do you use for decarbing?
- it needs to be portable for decarbing outdoors to prevent smell in house.

I have read that the Instant Pot on high pressure hits almost 240F but last time I used it, my edibles seemed weak.

For example, something like this

You can get round the smell by using a baking tin covered with foil I think. It should keep the smell in until you take it outside to open it up. Can't remember the decade temps off hand as I make oils using iso alcohol then the burning of it decades is as its smoked. So can't help much on this one. But give the foil a try. It may well work fine. But keep the temps as low as is needed. The lower the temp and the small amount of extra time needed for departing the better.
Why not just make brownies or something like biscuits that depart at the same time as cooking. Kill two birds with one stone as it were

If decarbing an oz at a time is enough, an Ardent Nova is foolproof and odorless.
When I make edibles I decarb about 300-400 grams at a time.
I am also frugal and do not want to pay cdn$400 for something like the Ardent Nova

To made edibles via Isopropyl alcohol you gotta decarb first
If you vape the brown goo then you do not need to decarb.

To make brownies, you gotta decard

it takes 30-40 minutes at temp of 230-240F to properly decarb.
I tried the decarb and isopropyl alcohol but the thick brown goo is the messiest stuff I have ever encountered - stick to everything, difficult to clean and I can't lick my fingers without becoming a zombie.

Do the insides of a brownie being baked go above the boiling point of water (212F) for 30-40 minutes?

I used a bbq turned heat to 230-240f. I placed ground weed in aluminium tray with oven thermometer after the temp stabilized.

I tried the toaster oven thing and it sucked. Fluctuate wildly in temperature. If your oven is within 15F it's good in my mind. Keep a meat thermometer in there and open the oven door if it creeps past 240f or whatever the upper temp is.

i've been consuming well over 1000mg of extract daily for 7 plus years now for my terminal cancer the doctors gave up on 7 years ago.
i'm presently taking 4/400mg pills daily of solventless decarboxylated cannabis flower extract i make by decarboxylating whole flowers in my ardent nova(and then pressing in my 12ton dabpress for first squash then fold and squash in my 30 ton bvv press). i own another brand stk i think on amazon but haven't really put it to use yet.
here's my advice if u find urself with one foot in the grave like me and need to take large doses,
the most important thing is consistency pill to pill, decarb to decarb.
400mg dose is probably like clearlight lsd for a first time user, for me now it's like taking an aspirin.
i like to make big batches and put in syringes stored in the frig.
here's a link to the person who makes ardent nova explaining decarboxylation.
