Described herein are methods for determining the temperature and nutrient content of items heated in a microwave oven. An example method of determining the temperature of the item includes receiving item information; receiving a trained water model; measuring, by an antenna, an emission value from the exterior of the microwave; determining, the power flow into the item based on the trained water model, the item information, and the emission value; and estimating, by the trained water model, a temperature change of the item. An example method of determining the nutrient content includes receiving item information; receiving a trained water model; measuring, by an antenna, an emission value from the exterior of the microwave; determining an emission spectrum from the emission value; and determining, using the emission spectrum, the item information, and the trained water model, a nutrient profile of the item.
