Types

The hob is the main focal point of any kitchen and can have a significant impact on the outcome of your cooking. There are many different kinds of hobs and the one you select will depend on what your specific cooking needs are.

Gas hobs are a classic option. They are quick to heat up and respond instantly to temperature changes. They are a preferred choice for chefs who are professional as they provide precise control. However, they are not as easy to clean as other hobs, and they may require more maintenance.

Electric hobs uk are made of ceramic with a flat surface and heated elements underneath. They are available in different sizes and with up to six cooking zones. Each zone is equipped with a distinct heating element which you can regulate individually. You can boil potatoes on one ring and cook sausages on a different. This kind of hob can be more efficient than gas and provides a child-safe option because the cooking zone only heats up when you place a pan on it.

Traditional ceramic hobs are a user-friendly alternative to gas and electric and are a elegant choice. They have an even and smooth surface that is easy to clean. However, they are not as fast to respond to temperature fluctuations or cool down as other hobs.

Domino hobs are an alternative to gas and electric hobs that have ovens underneath the cooking surface. They can be installed in smaller kitchens with little space for installation and are suitable for kitchenettes and flats. They are usually less expensive than a standard cooker and can be very energy-efficient however they are also fragile and require more maintenance than other types of cooker.

Gas

Gas hobs are cooktops equipped with burners that can be easily integrated into the kitchen countertop for a seamless appearance. Gas hobs are usually powered by LPG or natural gas, but they can also be powered with propane gas. The sleek, modern design can add sophistication to your modular cooking space.

A traditional gas stove is equipped with a variety of burners. Usually there are four, but there can be up to six. These are ignited with either the use of a match or a knob. The flames are controlled by an array of valves that can be adjusted to regulate the temperature.

However, the majority of modern built-in gas hobs have multi-flame burners that allow you to control the inner and outer ring of each burner to manage your cooking. These burners are faster and more reliable than earlier models.

In the past, it was essential to keep a gas burner lit constantly to ensure the burners were always hot and fueled. This was to avoid accidents, for example, not turning on the oven while the stove is still lit with a match or pilot light. Modern cookers are designed with safety in mind and include a built-in flame safety device that shuts off burners automatically should the pilot light fail.

Gas stoves and hobs should be checked, cleaned, and maintained regularly. To achieve this, it is recommended to book a visit from an Gas Safe registered engineer. Not only will they be able to ensure that your appliance is working correctly and safely, but they will offer expert advice and suggestions on how to avoid problems in the near future.

Electric

A quality hob is equally important in making your kitchen the best hob it can be. Worktops, refrigerators freezers and ovens uk are the first items that come to mind. Whichever type you choose, conventional, induction, or gas cooker, the type of hob you choose can affect the way your kitchen functions and how easy it is to clean.

Electric hobs feature heating elements under a smooth glass surface. This is typically cleaned with a nonabrasive cleaner. These elements are activated when you turn the hob on and can be notched up to a variety of power levels by turning or pressing the control knob. It can take them a little bit longer to heat up however once they are heated, they are in place, they provide better and more consistent temperature control. They are equipped with indicators that tell you whether a space is hot or not.

They are available in four to six different sizes and can be notch-up up to different power levels. These are great for flat-based cookware, but not for cast iron cookware, since they can get hot. Some models (such as Belling BELCH602T) come with dual rings which allow you to cook sausages and boil water in the same ring. Some models come with a Boost function that concentrates high heat into one ring. This is helpful for stirring-frying, searing meat or boiling large pots.

Induction hobs are distinct from standard electric models because they make use of electromagnetic fields instead of conventional gas flames to cook your food. This enables them to achieve precise temperatures in a shorter time frame, which makes them extremely energy efficient. They feature a cool to the touch surface, and flashing indicators that inform you whether a ring was used or is still hot.

Ceramic

Ceramics can be used to make decorative or functional objects. It is made by mixing clay with earthen elements, powders and water, before firing it in a high-temperature oven called a Kiln. Once it's made it can be painted or covered with decorative materials to add texture and colour.

Ceramic hobs blend design and function to make a stunning piece of modern kitchen furniture. They operate by using radiant heating technology, passing an electric current through coiled components hidden beneath the black glass surface of the hob. They generate heat when activated. This is then transferred to the pan by way of an infrared system. You can adjust the intensity of this heating by controlling the controls using a knobs or buttons.

Certain ceramic hobs have dual-ring designs, having one smaller and a larger cooking area which allows you to select the ideal size for your pan. You can also find hobs equipped with booster burners that generate high-powered heat rapidly perfect for searing food or bringing pans of boiling water to a boil in a short time.

Ceramic cooktops are more energy efficient than other types of hobs as they take longer to heat up and alter temperatures. You can also choose vented cooktops that have ventilation systems with the cooktop made of ceramic. This makes sure that smoke, steam and cooking smells do not stay in your home.

Induction

Induction hobs contain heating elements that are comprised of copper wire coils. The coils create electromagnets, which make the pans hot on the top of them. The coils stir up the free electrons within the base metal of your pan which then transfers heat evenly to your food. The surface of the hob is never hot and the cooking zones automatically turn off as soon as your pan is removed.

Induction hobs are typically more expensive than other types however, they're also more efficient to heat and use 30-70% less energy than ceramic or gas hobs. They're also easier to clean, since the surface of the hob isn't hot, and only the contents of your pan do.

Certain manufacturers offer a specific induction model that has additional features such as a pause feature that shuts off the power to your stove when you leave it, or connect two cooking rings at the same time at the same power level for greater flexibility. They are commonly referred to as FlexInduction hobs and can be more expensive than traditional induction models but they're worth a look if you are a multi-tasker.

Our favorite is this induction hob from Smeg. It has four cooking zones that are large enough, a bridge function and nine power levels that give you a variety of options for those who want to cook with a lot of passion. It did well during our test, with fast heating and precise control when making pancakes. The cooker comes with a built in dishwasher and automatic pan detection, which makes cleaning easier. The only issue is that there are only a handful of compatible pans and you can't use it to cook with the utensils that have magnetic bases. It could be a problem when you have a large amount of cookware that's not compatible or only the smallest portion is compatible with induction hobs.
