HOW DOES INDUCTION COOKING WORK?
The induction cooktop applies an alternating electric current to a coil of copper wire under the cooking pot which repeatedly magnetises the pot. This produces large eddy currents in the pot which, because of the resistance of the pot, heats it.
OUTDOOR COOKING
The portable induction cooktop offers safe, eco friendly cooking that can be taken camping or used for cooking for one. With its low heat cooking the portable induction cooktop is safe to use at low heights and around children and pets.
TOP BENEFITS OF INDUCTION COOKING
QUICK COOKING
Induction elements directly heat the cookware, resulting in a very rapid increase in temperature, in contrast to gas or electric stovetops which transfer heat from the element to the pan.
COOL COOKING
As the induction cooktop barely heats up, your kitchen stays cool saving you money on electricity and cooling.
SAFE COOKING
Safety is another benefit of using an induction cooktop. The cool elements reduce risk of fire and have no danger of emissions.
CLEAN COOKING
Without excessive heat, food that spills on the element will not caramelize or burn, making it easy to wipe away. The flat surface is simple to sponge clean, without worrying about small parts and awkward elements.
