Types of Oven Hob
|
||||
|
||||
A hob ([www.ovensandhobs.uk](https://www.ovensandhobs.uk/)) is a flat cooking surface that sits above your oven to cook your pans and pots. There are many different kinds of hobs available, such as electric, gas, and induction.
|
||||
|
||||
Things to look out for include touch, rotary and controls for position. These controls let you control heating zones by pressing the button. They also stop them from being smashed easily, especially if they are used by children.
|
||||
|
||||
Ceramic Hobs
|
||||
|
||||
Ceramic hobs are a fantastic choice for modern kitchens, that combine style and function. The glossy surface is susceptible to damage from food residues and scratches. To keep your hob looking good and working efficiently you must follow a regular cleaning routine. Avoid using abrasive cleansers or scrubbing pads.
|
||||
|
||||
These hobs are heated by passing an electric current through coiled elements that are hidden beneath the glass surface, that generate heat when they are activated through control knobs. Certain models include radiant elements that emits heat through the glass surface. Some models use Halogen elements that are more powerful. They can heat the entire surface with repeated pulses.
|
||||
|
||||
Some of our ceramic hobs are equipped with advanced safety features, for example, a residual heat indicator that alerts you when the surface is hot to the contact. This helps prevent burns. Some ceramic hobs have child locks to prevent children from accidentally changing the settings.
|
||||
|
||||
For maximum performance, it's important to select the right cookware for your ceramic hob. This will ensure that your pans have a flat bottom, which promotes even heat distribution and helps to avoid hot spots that could result in food being overcooked or undercooked. Avoid dragging your pans across the surface as this could scratch the tempered-glass.
|
||||
|
||||
We recommend ceramic hobs with a dual-ring design, or the 'I Flex zone. It can be used to accommodate two single pots, or one large pan. You'll need a pan with at least 30cm in size to allow it to register. We also have models equipped with a booster burner to allow rapid heating of specific zones or pots - ideal for stir-fry or searing steak. Certain models come with an automatic shut-off function that shuts off the hob at a predetermined time to prevent it from overheating. This is a great security feature that can give you peace of mind. This feature is typically activated by pressing the "Power button' on the control panel when you have an appliance set to the maximum temperature and there is no activity for a set period of time.

|
||||
Gas Hobs
|
||||
|
||||
A gas hob, sometimes called a gas cooker or gas stove is a kitchen appliance that uses flammable natural or liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) as the source of fuel. The flame heats both cookware as well as the air around it. This allows for fast cooking and precise temperature control. Gas hobs are designed to be elevated, which gives extra safety by preventing the body from coming in contact with the flame. This eliminates the risk of burning. However, this elevated construction requires special attention when using and cleaning the hob to avoid spilling liquids on the burners.
|
||||
|
||||
The burners of a traditional gas cooker are controlled by hand and lit using a a match. Modern models feature an automatic igniter, which makes sure that the gas is ignited automatically. The flame can be controlled by the control knobs. This makes it easy to adjust the heat level. Based on the model, some gas hobs also have multi-flame burners for increased cooking flexibility.
|
||||
|
||||
One of the biggest downsides to a gas hob is that it requires a continuous supply of gas, which can be a problem when you live in an area with intermittent or unstable supply. Gas hobs also require regular maintenance to prevent dangerous corrosion and leaks. This is why it is essential to install a gas hob after consulting with an approved Gas Safe fitter who will provide expert installation and follow strict safety protocols.
|
||||
|
||||
Gas appliances are still popular in certain areas, even though electric and induction hobs have gained in popularity. This is due to consumer preference and environmental concerns, in addition to local prices for energy and availability. It is crucial to think about your kitchen's infrastructure and utility costs prior to choosing a style.
|
||||
|
||||
Hobs induction
|
||||
|
||||
Induction hobs have become the most popular choice for our customers who want an elegant, sleek kitchen. They use magnetism to warm the pans rather than a heated plate or burning gas beneath. Beneath the glass ceramic surface are copper coils through which an electric current that is alternating runs through. When an induction-compatible saucepan is placed on the top of the cooker the coils sense the magnetic base and induce heat directly into the cooker or the pan itself. This is faster than traditional gas stoves and is more efficient in energy usage. The glass-ceramic surface is cool and cool to feel and easy to clean.
|
||||
|
||||
Induction hobs are designed to be simpler than gas counterparts to clean. A quick wipe with a damp cloth is all you require to keep your induction hob looking as good as new.
|
||||
|
||||
The biggest drawback to induction cooking is that you'll need have suitable cookware for it. All pans, including cast iron, stainless steel and non-stick, must have a base that is magnetic. If you're not sure whether your existing cookware is induction-compatible, a quick test is to place a magnet on the bottom of the pan. If it sticks firmly, then your pan is induction-compatible.
|
||||
|
||||
There are a range of induction hobs that are available that range from low-cost models to high-end brands with a TFT display with a full menu of operation. The hob displays the pan's location on the full-colour display when it is in an area of power. A control button or slider lets you to change the power setting or set a clock. There are other clever accessories available, such as pan sensors that adhere to the sides of your cookware and communicate with the hob using bluetooth to regulate the power exactly.
|
||||
|
||||
Induction hobs with a built-in fan reduce smoke, steam, and cooking smells. This model is perfect for homes with small space as it removes the need for a separate extractor fan. Like other induction hobs it makes use of magnetic fields at frequencies within the kilohertz range in order to produce the heat that indirectly affects your pan and its contents. In normal operation, at an interval of 5-10 centimetres, these fields are in line with the reference value of the magnetic flux density that was established for the relevant frequency range by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection and no health risks are expected.
|
||||
|
||||
Electric Hobs
|
||||
|
||||
The top electric hobs offer an elegant look and are designed to match the majority of kitchen styles. They are a good option for those who prefer the convenience of use of touchscreen controls instead of dials, and offer a variety of options to meet your cooking requirements. The majority are made of glass that is easy to clean and can look elegant if you opt for a black or white design. Certain models come with bridge features that allow you to connect two zones in order to accommodate larger pans, and others include a power boost button that can provide additional heat for those who have a difficult task.
|
||||
|
||||
Induction hobs are increasing in popularity due to their clean and modern aesthetic which can be incorporated into modern kitchen designs. They also cook quickly and offer a high degree of safety. For instance they cool faster than gas cookers and come with a "hot" indicator light that stays on to warn you when the cooking zone is hot to the surface. They are also more efficient because the magnetic field only produces heat within the pan itself which means you're not heating the surrounding air.
|
||||
|
||||
There are a few aspects to take into consideration when selecting an electric hob. Most require an electrical supply that is set up with the correct cables and breakers. We suggest having it installed by a qualified electrical contractor. Induction hobs can be costly, and you will need to buy a set of compatible induction pans to make the most of them. They may cost more due to the fact that they consume more energy.
