Convenience Of Induction Hobs
Not only are Induction Hobs inexpensive, they save you money because they are energy efficient. They heat cookware faster, are light in weight, cleans easily, and are convenient to use at barbeque’s or camping.
Induction Hobs saves electricity because they are energy efficient
Frying food can commence within seconds
They are durable, easy to transport because they are small, light-weight and easy to use.
Induction hobs heats faster and more energy efficient than other electrical hobs. Heat is only generated in the cookware in contact with the surface of the hob top and the induction effect does not heat the air around the cookware. Hence, no heat is generated not being used for the cooking process and this saves electricity. The cooktop surface stays cool and only takes heat from the pot standing on top of it.
Gas stoves takes around seven minutes to boil a liter of water, but a 1.8 KW Induction Hob only takes about three minutes. Frying with a little oil can start in seconds, because that is all it takes to heat the cookware’s surface. Induction Hobs distribute heat evenly compared to radiant stove plates, are 25% - 50% faster and offer fine control to adjust the temperature.
The built-in set and forget timer makes boiling an egg or cooking porridge and stews a breeze. A Portable Induction hob is ideal for use as a portable unit on the counter-top in your kitchen or to use when you are camping, also in student rooms and small apartments. It is light, small, durable and since it stay cool it is easy to use when travelling. It automatically detects when the cookware has been removed and switches itself off.
Other electrical hobs first have to warm the hob’s surface, then transfer this heat from the surface to the cookware. In contrast the Induction Hob generates the heat directly in the cookware itself by using induction technology. This is very efficient since no energy is lost by transferring heat from the hob’s surface to the cookware surface or to air around the cookware. Induction hobs therefore heats faster and are more energy efficient. Another benefit is that the hob’s surface remain cool, it is only the area beneath the cookware that attracts heat.
