The Cooking Chef machine is based on the (1500W) Kenwood Titanium Major machine with 1100W induction cooking technology incorporated.
How it works
Induction cooking is an advanced cooking method that employs the principles of electromagnetic induction. When the Cooking Chef bowl is locked into position the circuit is completed by a special layer of stainless steel in the bowl base. In turn this creates a large amount of thermal energy that passes through to the contents of the bowl, thus heating the food.
Induction cooking is extremely energy efficient because it only produces heat in the base of the bowl. Other heating methods such as gas hobs waste almost 50% of the heat energy around the sides of the pan. The Induction cooking area on your Cooking Chef only feels hot during and immediately after cooking because of the heat transferred back from the contents of the bowl. This means that Induction cooking is very efficient, very safe and very clean.
The temperature measurement
The heat function is only available whilst mixing. During heating the temperature LED will pulse on and off. The LED will remain on while the temperature is +/- 5°C of the required setting. When heating water to a temperature of 100°C, the accuracy is +/- 5°C.
Ultimate control is possible as the temperature ranges in 2°C between 20°C to 140°C in the 3L cooking capacity bowl. With this unique function, the Kenwood Cooking Chef makes light work of the tricky dishes that require attention and precision in the kitchen.
