Electric induction cooking, also called magnetic induction, is slowly making its way into different kitchens as the preferred mode of modern cooking methods. It also has a diverse range of benefits to offer, that make cooking a faster and more efficient process.
The Technology
Unlike regular gas stoves that work on the source of open heat, these cooktops work on electric induction. In order to know how induction cooktops work, we need to understand the components involved.
● An electric induction cooktop that contains metal coils, through which the current is passed.
● A vessel that is made for induction cooktops, where some contain a magnetic base.
When electricity is passed through the coils in the cooktop, it generates a magnetic field. And when the appropriate cookware comes in contact with the surface, the alternating electric current that passes through the loop generates small vortexes. And in turn, the energy transfer conducts heat.
One such heavy-duty commercial induction cooktop that works in this manner is the Prestige Induction Cooktop (Commercial ICT). It follows the same principles with added benefits that are in tune with the needs of an Indian kitchen.
The Advantages
With the variety available today, there are many ways in which commercial induction cooktops can upgrade your cooking experience.
- Safety
The absence of an open flame already makes this much safer. When the pan is removed, or unattended for a while, the cooktop also stops heating up with the automatic switch-off mode.
2. Efficient
This way of cooking is also faster since heat is evenly distributed at the base of the vessel. Because there is no flame, it also helps extend the life of your cookware.
3. Cooler Kitchen
Without open heat, the kitchen also keeps at a good temperature. The extended cooling function of the cooktop works even after the appliance is switched off, allowing it to cool down faster.
4. Easy Maintenance
The smooth glass finish of the cooktop not only makes it easier to clean, but the innovative design also adds a stylish touch to your kitchen.
Some of the best induction cooktops also come with durable surfaces, eco-friendly manufacturing, and superior quality glass tops that help them last much longer.
