Types of [hobs oven](https://www.ovensandhobs.uk/)
A hob (known as a stove top in North America) is a cooking appliance that heats up pans with flame or electricity. There are many different kinds of hobs, so you can pick one that fits your style and kitchen.
Induction hobs have an elongated ceramic surface and either four or five zones to heat your pans. The modern touch-operated designs look sleek and stylish and are easy to clean.
Ceramic hobs
Ceramic hobs can give your kitchen a modern and sleek appearance. The flat glass-ceramic surfaces can be easy to clean and can quickly be wiped down if spills or splatters occur. They heat up quickly and are energy-efficient and can lower the cost of electricity. However, one drawback of ceramic hobs is that they can be slow to change temperatures which can be a problem if you're cooking something that requires an instant reduction or increase in heat.
Electric hobs are made up of a solid surface that is heated from below by electric elements. They can be controlled individually by rotary knobs and nipped up to the level of power you require. You can utilize the Boost feature to boost the temperature of a specific zone. Ceramic hobs also have very high heat retention, so they'll remain hot to the touch even after being shut off. This can be a challenge if you have children, so it's best to install them in a location which is far from objects that are flammable and not within reach of children.
This kind of hob is able to be mounted on a variety of worktops such as laminate, solid hardwood and granite. It's also reasonably priced and can be a great alternative if you're looking to replace your old hobs, but without spending a lot of money. However, like all appliances they do need to be installed correctly and connected to the mains power supply, so we recommend hiring an electrician who is experienced to ensure that the new hobs are safe to use.
The downside to this kind of hob is that it's very sensitive to pan size and shape. You'll need cookware that is either exactly the same size as the element or that can fit comfortably into each of the heating zones on the hob. If the cookware doesn't match, then the element won't recognize it and will not begin to heat up the base of the pan. This can cause uneven cooking and make the stove less efficient.
Gas on glass hobs
Gas-powered glass hobs have modern, sleek design. They are more expensive than electric hobs, and may require professional installations. However they are also more efficient in heating - a full pot of water can typically boil in less than 4 minutes. This type of stove is ideal for cooks who wish to control how much heat is produced. However, it must be observed that a glass-based hob is more susceptible to damage than stainless steel models and may require cleaning more often, as the accumulation of grease and residue tends to stay on the surface instead of slipping off.
This Bertazzoni hob is an excellent example of gas on glass. It features four monobloc burners finished in matt black, with control knobs made of metal to give it a chic, sophisticated finish. It also has a 4kW wok ring for additional versatility, as well as pan supports that are dishwasher-safe, making them easier to keep clean.
This Bosch gas hob is another highly recommended model. It is a sleek piece of toughened glass with modern cooking technology. The dual ring design to the left side of the gas hob features an inner burner that doubles to increase heat distribution and speed up cooking. It also comes with an easy-to-read power level indicator that allows you to control the exact temperature of the flame. You can select from nine pre-defined settings including the high setting for searing steaks and an option for scrambled eggs.
The simple and intuitive controls were loved by our test subjects, who found them to be very simple to use. A few minor issues are that you need to press the controls nine more times to reach the maximum temperature and the glass can make it difficult to discern what the burners are doing.
A few of the top gas on glass hobs can be found at affordable prices, such as this Neff model. It's not likely to win any design prizes, but it will perform the task and be an excellent addition to your kitchen for just more than PS120.
Electric hobs
Electric hobs are ideal for modern homes. They're not only sleek and stylish, but they are also safer, faster and more efficient than their predecessors.
Ceramic glass hobs are among the most popular electric stoves. These hobs are designed with an elegant glazed finish and have an exterior that is easy to clean and resistant to scratches. They're also typically equipped with a power boost feature, which allows you to increase the heat of your cooker for a brief period of time.
Induction hobs are yet another electric hob perfect for modern homes. In contrast to traditional electric and gas plate hobs that use electromagnetic fields to directly heat your cookware. They are therefore more energy efficient and offer precise temperature control. They require a special type of pan, and can be costly to install.
A gas-on-glass hob is another option that's an excellent choice for modern homes. Similar to a traditional gas hob, it features a burner beneath an underlying layer of flat glass. However it's heat-resistant and shatterproof, which means it's much simpler to clean than the typical glass that's tempered. A majority of these hobs come with a 'hot surface indicator', which informs you when the hob is hot.
Gas hobs are a popular choice for many home chefs However, they can be noisy and difficult to clean. The flame can also be difficult to control and can take a long time to get hot and cool off. Electric hobs, on the other side are more efficient in energy and easier to clean.
There are electric stoves that are compatible LPG gas. This allows you to switch between different fuel sources, meaning you'll be able to fit your needs. But, it's important to keep in mind that these hobs must be installed by a gas safe registered engineer and require a specific 6mm cable for your kitchen. These hobs are not suitable for people with pacemakers because the electromagnetic field may cause interference with them.
Hobs with induction
Under the glass surface of induction hobs are copper coils which run an electrical current that varies. When an induction-compatible pot is placed on a stove, the coils generate magnetic fields that generate heat directly inside the pan rather than heating the surface of the worktop (gas) or the heated plate (electric). This makes induction hobs very efficient from an energy perspective because there's no leftover heat that is wasted.
There are a variety of models of induction stoves, from the basic ones with a single zone labelled by rings, to more advanced multi-zoned induction stoves with up to six zones and allow multiple pots to be cooked simultaneously on one flex area. Certain models have a slider control that is similar to the iPhone. You can select the desired temperature by swiping your finger from left to right over the power bar located in the middle. Certain models can even be programmed with settings for specific recipes or food types which can save you time and effort in the kitchen.
Induction hobs can be more expensive than ceramic hobs, however they are believed to be more efficient over the long term because they heat up quicker and have a smaller area to heat up, which can help you save on energy bills. They also cool down faster and have a more secure design with no hot plates, which makes them ideal for families with young children or elderly persons living in the house. However, they do create an electric force that could interfere with certain medical devices, such as pacemakers. It is therefore crucial to center the pans and avoid using smaller pans with larger burners.
As with all electric hobs you'll need to clean your induction hob frequently, since food particles and other debris may build up over time. You can employ a standard oven cleaner or invest in a professional one to keep your stove in good shape and shiny for longer. It is not recommended to use abrasive cleaning products or a scouring pad on your stove since they could scratch the surface.
