Portable induction hub?
« on: Sun, 02 January 2022, 15:58:19 »
Hey,

2 of my 4 electric cooker hubs are broken and I was thinking about buying a single or double portable induction hub at least until my landlord can get to switch it. Anyone who thinks it could be worth it?

Just remember that induction hubs work only with cookware that have steel/iron in the bottom. Cast iron pans work well.
Pots made from pure aluminium don't.

Proper induction stoves are fast and energy-efficient. Beware of bad user interfaces though. All stoves I've tried have had crappy touch controls, not even multitouch.

Depending on whether you have good money invested in good cookware, induction may or may not be a good choice.

There is great cookware that is not magnetic as well as gear that is. Personally, I have lots of cookware that would never work with induction.
