Other problems that occur with pots and pans for induction
- The ferromagnetic base is too far from the element:
- Ferromagnetism= this refers to substances such as iron, nickel and others that can be very strongly magnetised by quite weak magnetic forces
- This can reduce efficiency.
- The response time may also not be as good.
- Poor quality pots or pans:
- Water does not boil well on one side.
- The other side stays cold.
- Gives poor cooking results.
- Bottom of the saucepan is hollow or has a deep logo stamp:
- Overheating occurs in the areas that do come into contact with the glass.
- Poor cooking results.
- The temperature probe is measuring the wrong values.
- The safety maximum of 240°C is not reached in the middle of the pot or pan (or only after a long time).
- So the bottom can reach temperatures of 500°C and damage the electronics.
