5.0 out of 5 stars I love it for boiling and so cook that way almost daily now. Not so great for frying though.
(function(){ P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function'){ A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })() After wiring up a proper outlet, this is fantastic for boiling stuff. Now that boiling is so easy, I cook something that way almost every day. It's super easy to keep clean and I find the controls easy as well. I normally turn it up to max and until the water is boiling (in seconds) then turn it down (using celsius) to either 80 100 or 120 depending on what I'm cooking. To maintain any of these temps, it comes on full blast for a short time then turns back off for a short time. That means it gets much hotter than 100 and that's a problem for something like cream of wheat for example because it will boil out of the pot before it cools back down. In this way, it's very similar to cooking in a microwave. So for something that boils over easily, I use 80. For most boiling, I use 100, but if it won't boil over and I want to keep the bubbles going hard, I use 120.For frying, I find an ordinary electric coil to produce better results since it's too easy to burn stuff when this one cycles on and there's too dramatic a temperature difference between on and off as it cycles to kind of maintain the set temperature.
5.0 out of 5 stars Brewing 5 minutes out of the box
Full disclosure I've done one batch with this....but worked perfectly. Took a little on the burner/off the burner during steeping to keep 150-degrees. Afterwards the first boil took about 15 mins to full rolling boil. I achieved that by maxing it to 240-degrees C (the controls on this are watts; temp/C and also in Chinese). After I got up to a full boil...I dialed the temp back down to 140-C for the remainder of the hour....unreal accuracy. No boil over and from thermometer we were running about 212-215F the whole boil. I actually walked out of the room a few times instead of babysitting for the entire session. Probably won't do that all the time....but with fermcap in the boil and its consistent temp I wasn't worried about boil over....which would make a real mess of this unit. A little pricey...yes. But my new brew dojo over the garage isn't vented like the kitchen...and this fits the bill perfectly and quickly. Very happy...but it's day 1.
1.0 out of 5 stars Died within 4 months
We really liked this induction cooker, it was consistent, and heated liquids quickly. The button were responsive. However, after less than 4 months, it started to turn off randomly in the middle of heating (we are pretty much cooking the same things as before), and also possibly getting stuck at a high setting when we lower it to a lower wattage for simmering. Now it has died completely.We've tried contacting the seller, Dongguan, a few times via Bolo's messaging system for a warranty claim. However, we have NOT received any responses at all. Now we're stuck with a $299 induction cooker that only worked for less than 4 months. Even worse is that we have 3 of these, and the second one that we bought is starting to act up too. HELP!!!!
5.0 out of 5 stars Saves me a TON of propane!!
I've been using this for home brewing for a few months now and I absolutely LOVE it. I had to wire in my own 220v NEMA 6-20 outlet but it wasn't hard at all. I was skeptical that it would be poor quality for the price and being made in China but this unit is very high quality and I have had zero issues with it. Remember, if a magnet wont stick to the bottom of your pot/pan, it wont work on this cook-top. Induction cooking will only work on ferrous materials.As far as all of the product functions, I can only comment on the wattage settings. I've only ever needed a nice rolling boil, so for a 5 gallon boil I start it out at 3600w and then turn it off close to 170f (measured by separate thermometer) for steeping grains for at least 30 mins (it will take 5 gals past 170f in under 30 mins). Then I'll max it out again until I have my boil and then I turn it down to 1600w and then finally down to 1200w for the remainder of the hr+ boil.I also like that it is able to detect whether or not the pot/pan on the cook-top will work. Also, when you remove the pot it will shut off. Bottom line, I could not be happier with my purchase!
4.0 out of 5 stars Description incorrect.
The description is incorrect, there are only 8 steps for power, not 13, i.e. 400,800,1200,1600, 2000, 2400, 2800 and 3500 watt.As for the temperature, the text talks about degrees Celcius, where it should be Fahrenheit and there are only 8 steps, not 13. I.e. 80, 100, 120, 140, 160, 180, 200, 240 degrees Fahrenheit..So, if you are a home brewer and you think you can hold a mash temp of 60 F or so automatically, that ain't gonna work. Other than that it seems to work just fine.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great for 5 gallon BIAB home brewing
I bought this for brewing gallon BIAB homebrew batches. So far it is working great. I have a 10 gallon stainless steel kettle and it heated 8 gallons of 64 degree tap water to 162 degrees in 42 minutes on the 3500w setting. It then heated the wort from 154 to to boiling in 25 minutes. It achieved a pretty good rolling boil with this volume. I was able to leave it on the 3500w setting for the duration of the boil. I ran a new 20 amp circuit and installed a 20 amp plug dedicated for this cooktop.
3.0 out of 5 stars good.
good.
4.0 out of 5 stars Heats up quickly
Is definitely powerful enough to use for canning and homebrew making. My only issue is controlling the temperature but I would recommend it for larger pots.
