Types of Hob and Oven

A hob and oven is an essential part of many kitchens and is available in a variety of styles. You can even mix kinds like domino, electric and gas to fit your cooking needs.

Safety features like the controls for child and position can be included in the hob. These are designed to prevent children from touching the hob and prevent them from changing the temperature settings by accident.

Types

In the heart of every kitchen, the hob is at the center of the room and can play a huge part in how your food comes out. There are a variety of types of hob and the one you select will depend on what your particular cooking needs are.

Gas hobs are the classic choice, and they provide a rapid heating process and instant reaction to temperature changes. They are a favorite choice for chefs who are professional as they offer precise control. They aren't as simple to clean as other hobs and could require more frequent maintenance.

Electric hobs feature a flat ceramic surface with heated elements underneath. They are available in a variety of sizes and come with four to six cooking zones. Each zone has a separate heating element which you can regulate individually. This allows you to boil potatoes on one ring while cooking sausages in a different. This type of hob is easier to warm up than gas, and it offers a safer alternative for children since the cooking zone becomes hot only when you place the pot on it.

Traditional ceramic hobs are a convenient alternative to gas and electric and are a stylish option. They have a smooth and durable surface that is easy to clean. However they aren't as quick to react to temperature fluctuations or cool down as other hobs.

Domino hobs are an alternative to electric and gas hobs that have ovens and hobs underneath the cooking surface. They are great for kitchens with small space. They also work well in kitchenettes and flats. They are typically less expensive than a standard hob and can be extremely energy efficient however they can be brittle and require more maintenance than other types of cooker.

Gas

A gas hob is a cooktop with burners that can be fitted on kitchen countertops to give seamless appearance. They are typically used with natural or liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) but they can also be powered by propane gas. The sleek, modern design can enhance your modular cooking space.

A traditional gas stove comes with several burners, usually 4, but often as many as 6. The burners can be ignited with a match or knob. The flames are then controlled by a series of valves that can be adjusted to set the temperature.

However, the majority of modern gas hobs with built-in gas are equipped with multi-flame burners that let you regulate the outer and inner rings of each burner to precisely manage your cooking. These burners are much faster and more reliable than earlier models.

In the past, it was essential to keep a gas stove on constantly to ensure the burners were always hot and fuelled. This was a security feature to avoid accidents such as not turning off the oven while the stove was still lit by a match or a pilot flame. Modern cookers are designed with safety in mind. They have a built-in flame failure device that shuts down the burners immediately should the pilot light fail.

Gas stoves and hobs must be checked, cleaned and maintained regularly. The best hob way to accomplish this is to schedule an appointment with a licensed Gas Safe registered engineer. Not only will they be able to ensure that your appliance is operating properly and safely, but they will also provide professional advice and guidance on how to prevent any problems in the near future.

Electric

When it comes to creating your perfect kitchen the countertops, fridge freezer and ovens will always get the most attention, but a good hob is also essential. Whichever type you choose, traditional, induction or gas cooker the type of hob you choose will affect how your kitchen operates and how easy it is to clean.

Electric hobs have heating elements under a smooth, glass surface. This is usually cleaned with a nonabrasive cleaner. The elements turn on when you turn the hob on and can be adjusted to various power levels by turning or clicking on a knob. They can take some time to warm up, but once they have they have a tendency to offer more reliable and consistent temperature control. They come with built-in indicators that tell you if a zone is hot or not.

These rings are available in four to six different sizes and can be notch-up to different power levels. They are ideal for cookware that is flat, but aren't the best oven option for cast iron pans because they can get hot. Certain models (such as Belling BELCH602T) come with dual rings that allow you to cook sausages and boil water in the same ring. Some models even have a 'boost' function that concentrates high-powered heat into one ring for stir fry cooking sauteing meats, searing or boiling large pots of water.

Induction hobs are different from regular electric hobs in that they utilize electromagnetic fields to directly heat your cookware instead of the traditional method of gas flames. This allows them to reach precise temperatures in a shorter time frame, which makes them highly energy efficient. They also have a cool-to touch surface and flashing heat indicators that let you know that a ring is in use or is still hot.

Ceramic

Ceramics can be used to create functional or decorative objects. It is made by mixing clay with earthen elements, powders, and water, and then firing it in a high temperature oven known as Kiln. After it's been made it can be sprayed with paint-like or decorative substances to add colour and texture.

Ceramic hobs are an exquisite blend of function and form, sitting comfortably in any modern kitchen. Radiant heating technology is used to heat ceramic hobs by passing an electrical current through coiled components that are concealed beneath the black glass surface. They produce heat when activated, which is transferred to your pan by way of an infrared system. You can adjust the intensity of the heating by turning the knobs or touch controls.

Some ceramic hobs come with dual-ring designs, having one smaller and a larger cooking area which allows you to select the ideal size for your pan. There are hobs with booster burners which produce high-powered heat quickly, great for searing meat or bringing pans of boiling water to the boil quickly.

In comparison to other types of hobs ceramic cooktops typically take longer to warm up and then change temperature however once they do, they're typically more efficient in terms of energy consumption. You can also find vented cooktops that incorporate a ventilation system into the cooktop's ceramic, making sure that smoke, steam and cooking smells don't stay in your home.

Induction

Induction hobs are equipped with heating elements that are comprised of copper wire coils. The coils create electromagnets that make the pans hot on the top of them. The coils stir up the free electrons inside the base of your pan which transmits heat efficiently and directly to your food. The surface of the hob never gets hot and, as soon as you remove your pan, the cooking zones turn off automatically.

Induction hobs are generally more expensive, but they also heat up faster and use 30 to 70% less energy than gas or other kinds. Induction hobs are also simpler to clean since only the inside of the pan are heated but not the surface.

Certain manufacturers offer an induction model with extra features such as the ability to pause that shuts off power to your hob when you step away from it, or link up two cooking rings simultaneously at the same power level to provide additional flexibility. They are commonly referred to as FlexInduction hobs and can be more expensive than traditional induction models but they're worth considering if you are a multi-tasker.

Our top choice is this induction cooktop from Smeg, with four good-sized cooking zones with a bridge function as well as nine power levels that give you a variety of options for those who want to cook with a lot of passion. It did well in our tests, with fast heating and precise control when making pancakes. The oven also has an integrated dishwasher as well as an automatic pan detection feature to make cleaning a lot more simple. There's a limited range of compatible pans, however, and it can't be used to cook with appliances that have a magnetic base. This can be a problem if you have a large amount of cookware that is not compatible, or only the smallest portion is compatible with induction hobs.
