They are able to heat up quickly and cool down quickly with a uniform temperatures on the cooking surface. Most often, professional chefs prefer them and are easy to control.
Gas Hobs
A popular choice, gas hobs have burner rings as well as an grate that cookware and pans rest on. They are quick to heat up and have precise temperature control. They can be used for a wide variety of cooking techniques from boiling water to searing food. Gas hobs tend to be less expensive than electric ones, as they use natural gas as their source.
These are available in a variety of finishes including stainless steel, ceramic glass and more. These finishes give them an elegant and contemporary look that will complement any kitchen design. They are susceptible to scratching and scorching which is why you must take extra care when cleaning them.
Regular cleaning is key to maintaining your hob's pristine condition, especially if are using one of the more traditional freestanding models. You can remove the grates and burner caps for deeper cleaning, taking them out of the soapy water and gently rubbing. You can also make a mild paste from baking soda and use it to remove stubborn stain without damaging the surface.
Built-in gas hobs provide an elegant appearance, in contrast to traditional gas stoves that are freestanding appliances. They can be positioned on a separate foundation, so they are easy to move around when you move or change the layout of your kitchen. Gas hobs require a lot work and professional installation in order to be put in your kitchen.
Gas hobs can be found in a range of finishes. From traditional white and black to the modern glossy glass, they are available in many different styles. Some even come in a stunning blue or green colour to add some character to your kitchen.
Gas hobs oven have been in use for many years and are a reliable, safe alternative. Gas hobs are energy-efficient, offer precise temperature control and evenly distributed heat evenly. However, it is essential to practice proper ventilation and follow safety guidelines to avoid accidents.
Another benefit to gas hobs is their flame failure mechanism, which shuts off the gas supply once the flame of the burner goes out. This helps prevent accidental burns or explosions.
Ceramic Hobs
Ceramic hobs have an elegant, modern look and is surprisingly quick to heat up and clean. There are a myriad of styles to choose from, including ultra-sleek, flat, and traditional shapes like squares and rectangles. They are easy to clean after use because of their flat surface. They also come with residual heat indicators which shut off the zone when it's too hot to touch. This reduces the chance of burns that happen accidentally and is particularly beneficial for families with young children.
The flat surface of the ceramic hob is vulnerable to scratches and chips. This is more of a issue when you drag pans across it, rather than lifting them up by their handles, and we advise being extra careful when handling and moving cookware on and off the hob. We also suggest against using magnetic or metallic cookware on a ceramic hob since this can damage the surface.
Another drawback of a ceramic hob is that it may take longer than induction or gas to cool down. This can be a hassle especially in a kitchen that is busy or if you want to quickly switch between cooking zones. However, many manufacturers have worked on this issue and are now offering various hobs that can reduce their cooling time by as much as 30%.
Hobs induction
Induction hobs heat up the fastest and are the most efficient option on the market. They are extremely hygienic and safe as they don't keep heat in the cooking zones, but there is a price to pay for these benefits because they can be more expensive than other options.
Hobs Induction
Induction hobs are now the most popular choice for kitchen renovations. They're a stylish alternative to traditional gas cooktops. They heat the pan rather than the ceramic or glass surface, which reduces energy consumption and making them safer to use. They also cool faster than traditional hobs, which means they're easier to keep clean.
Copper coils are situated beneath the glossy, smooth glass/ceramic surface on an induction hob. A current of alternating electrical energy is pushed through them. When a compatible pan is placed in the cooking area the coils instantly produce heat by magnetic induction. Cooking is more efficient because the pan doesn't lose heat.
There's an induction stove that suits your style. If you're looking for something simple to use, choose a model that has a touchscreen display that shows the pan's position within each of its zones. Click on the display and you'll be able to access a comprehensive menu of operation, altering the power settings or the timer. Some induction hobs have pre-programmed settings that are suited to specific recipes or food types. This is a great way to save time while cooking.
Induction hobs are also thought to be the most energy efficient cooking options because they consume less electricity and produce no heat after use. However, since they generate magnetic fields, these can interfere with medical equipment, such as pacemakers, so it's recommended to avoid using them near them.
We recommend you choose a premium induction hob with an integrated extractor. It removes smoke, steam and odours from the air while you cook, which means it can be used with a larger selection of cooking equipment. Choose one with a dual flex zone. This lets you connect two zones on the left to accommodate larger pots.
If you're looking for a durable hob that will withstand tough stains, try models with Hotpoint's CleanProtect coating. The coating is five times more durable than the normal ceramic coating and guards against scratches, stains, and chips. You should still employ a non-abrasive cleaner or scrubbing pad to get rid of food residue that has been burned on, but avoid any cleaners that are abrasive, which can scratch the ceramic surface.
Electric Hobs
Electric hobs are a crucial feature in many modern kitchens. They are stylish and practical. They are sleek and can be easily integrated into any decor. Their efficient heating makes them a perfect option for busy families.
Unlike gas, which burns a flame to heat the pan, electric hobs employ an element that rises up through the ceramic glass and warms the food that is placed on top of it. Electric hobs are also more efficient in energy usage because they can be turned off when not in use.
However, it's important be aware that not all hobs are created equal. Some are more advanced than others, featuring features like automatic safety shutoff and a digital display that clearly displays the power level, temperature, and cooking time. Certain models come with an enhancement feature that boosts the performance and speed of the element.
Another advantage of an electric hob is its flat surface which makes it cleaner than a traditional gas model. Spills and splatters are easily cleaned away without the need to scrub the grates. This means your hob will last longer.
Electric hobs are a great choice for families. However should you have a pacemaker you cannot use this kind of hob because its electromagnetic field could interfere with the device.
