Isn't gas faster than electric? Induction is superfast, almost too fast. You'll ruin your pans if you use it the same way as an electric

[Anonymous No.19948792]

gas because cooking involves not just manipulating the heat source but moving the pan around, raising it and lowering, changing how direct or indirect the heat is to what you're cooking and what not
that doesn't work when the pan itself is the heat source

It's really not. With a gas stove you can move the pan around, lift and shake or whatever and as long as you're keeping the pan relatively close to the burner you'll still be heating it. With induction it only works if the pan is a specific distance from the coil (pretty much it has to be flat on the stovetop) or it'll be outside the magnetic field being generated and won't be heated. Some induction stoves are also really fucking finicky about how centered the pan is on the burner and if it gets nudged a bit too far over it'll shut itself off as a safety feature which can be annoying as fuck.

So if you do a lot of cooking where you're frequently tossing food in a pan, gas is much more convenient for that because you'll be able to actively heat the pan the entire time even when you're fucking with it.

it's... interesting.

gotta plan ahead if it's not already roaring. 2 hours for oven, if cold. 1 hour if there are active, hot coals and you just need to add and fire fresh wood.

cook top can be ready from cold in 30-45 minutes. if you have active coals, 15 minutes to stoke fresh wood & boil water. instant/always ready for most other cooktop use if you already have good coals.

entire cooktop surface is usable. just different heat zones. far left over firebox is HELL ZONE, center is medium-high both have removable trivets for skillets/pans to further dial in heat. far right is medium to low flat griddle. all based on fire stoke, of course.

during winter it just runs 24hr for heating the house and is always some degree of ready-to-cook with minimal lag time.

there are two air inlet baffles. one on firebox, one on ash pan. there is also a flue damper in the chimney (handle visible on tile in 1st photo) to further control heat and burn rate.

as an induction owner, gas.
induction is ON/OFF. So when you're boiling something it's constantly moving between boiling and not boiling.
Secondly, induction heats a very specific area of your pan. If you put an egg in a cold pan and then max the stove you get a donut shaped circle that's done with the inside and outside of the egg still raw.

Both of these are just minor annoyances and no real issues. But it's still annoying.

My retarded friend who is new to cooking was redoing his kitchen around the time the gas price hike happened. He paid a shitload of money to get really bad electric stove. I tried telling him gas is better in every way possible and how the prices will normalize in no time but he wasn't having it. such a retard.

[Anonymous No.19950178]

The only use case where induction is objectively better than any other heat source is quickly heating a pan to high temperature, which is only meaningfully useful for things like bringing a pot to boil quickly.

For every other cooking method employed on a stovetop, which heat source works best is much more subjective, but pretty much anyone who's ever cooked and knows that they're doing would tell you that gas offers a much better experience.

Ideally I'd love to have just a single induction burner on a six-burner stovetop that uses gas for the rest, just because it'd be convenient for things like boiling pasta water, but if I have to pick one or the other I'm going with gas every time.

And yes I know I could just buy a countertop induction plate, but I don't want it enough to justify taking up extra counter space when I'm cooking so fuck that.

[Anonymous No.19950293]

>>19948697
induction if you have a good one. That means one where you can set actual temperatures not 1-10 hea levels, along with controllable wattage. It must also have proper coil coverage from center to edge 8"-12" in diameter, not a coil ring that misses the center and edge.
If you don't have something like this then gas stoves are alright. But when you have fast and accurate control over your pan temp, there's really no going back imo.

[Anonymous No.19950321]

>>19950293
Having to set a specific temperature sounds fucking awful when I just want to adjust my heat output quickly based on sight and sound. I have no fucking clue what temperature to set if I want to fry an egg, but I know what my flame height should look like and how to tell if I need to adjust the output once it's in the pan.

I'm sure I could learn to judge based on target pan temperature but that just sounds annoying and unintuitive compared to "need more heat, crank the dial"

I like glass top electric (the one that glows red on top of the glass)

I think gas is cool but every now and then there's a leak and somebody's house on the news gets destroyed and it's not fun to live with the possibility of that kind of shit happening, so I don't like gas. If gas was 100% safe, I would choose gas no question, but it's never going to be.

induction as far as I understand is like a big microwave with no door on it, big stupid meme gimmick that's probably being pushed for some reason that doesn't serve my happiness and well being, but that's just my theory.

The simplest and safest and most reliable thing I have ever used it the normal glass electric stove. I have a good one and it just FUCKING WORKS. Anyone who hates on it has some serious issues or is some kind of shill with an agenda.

Okay but I don't want to think about that, I just want to set the flame high enough that the food in the pan makes the right sound and looks like it's doing what I want.

>>19950402
On a traditional stove of any kind, you adjust a knob to basically tell the machine "output this much heat energy continuously until I tell you otherwise"

On an induction stove where you set a specific target temperature you're telling the computer "run the coil until you register this temperature, then turn off, and if it drops low enough to no longer register that temperature, turn the coil on again."

It's different, and you must learn to use each one differently or you'll fuck up things that rely on heating the food at a specific rate. I'm not saying the induction example won't work for certain things, but I am saying that a user who is accustomed to the traditional option would have to consciously think about things that are usually intuitive, and if you're already used to doing it the traditional way then there's not much if any benefit to learning the new different way. Maybe if you do a lot of cooking where holding something at a very specific temperature for a long time it's important it could be nice, but to me it just sounds annoying.

The likelihood of a house fire is 2.4 times higher in homes with electric stoves vs homes with gas stoves, and you are 3.4 times more likely to be injured in a fire with an electric stove and 1.9 times more likely to die in a fire with an electric stove vs gas.

>Ranges or cooktops were involved in 53 percent of the reported home cooking fires, 88 percent of cooking fire deaths, and 74 percent of cooking fire injuries. Households with electric ranges had a higher risk of cooking fires and associated losses than those with gas ranges.

They literally break down the number of fires per capita by range type in a graph that clearly shows the increased risk. What the fuck does the fact that most fires are caused by retards leaving their stove unattended have to do with anything?

Yeah, anyone that says electric is faster than gas is either a retard or a shill and everything they say should be considered suspect. Having used both extensively and alternating, gas is objectively and demonstrably faster in heating pans, provides more consistent temps while in use since it doesn't cycle on and off, and can be instantly turned off.
I've never used induction so I won't speak on it, but between gas and electric, gas wins and it's not even close.

Gas is far more versitile. You can use it when the power goes out. You can char peppers. You can flip your naan upside down on the pan to replicate a tandori oven. You can flambe. I'm sure the list goes on with things I don't know or just can't come up with right now.

it does depend heavily on the rated output of the electric coil or gas burner in question, as well as factors like pan size/shape vs heating element/flame size, but in general you do tend to get more BTUs out of most gas stoves, even pretty cheap models because there's little to no cost associated with allowing higher gas flow through the burner vs with electric coils where producing coils rated to output at higher levels does incur additional cost/engineering so you tend to get weaker output on cheaper models and just in general.

This is the biggest thing that anti-gas shills always either ignore completely or try to downplay, and it's almost always because the only type of cooking they can conceive of is putting a pot full of water on the stove and boiling things in it. There's a reason the number one gotcha against a gas stove they always try to pull out is "bro it takes so long to boil a pot of water compared to induction bro". Like yeah I might give a fuck if all I ever made was plain pasta without sauce, thanks for letting me know retard.

I do have a 6qt crock pot that I use most of the time for cooking stocks, but there have been a few occasions where even that wasn't big enough (typically cooking down a large turkey carcass) and I had to bust out the big stockpot. Given how rarely I do that, though, it's not worth spending $50 on some gadget that'll get used once or twice a year.

>>19954131
>You can use it when the power goes out
This is a huge benefit to gas, twice in the last four years I've had my power knocked out for 3-4 days and being able to still cook is a huge benefit when your generator is occupied keeping the refrigerator/freezer/sump pump/etc running.

Very possible, ultimately there are too many factors involved to chalk it up to any one thing, but either way the huge discrepancy seen in all the data collected is a pretty strong refutation of the retarded take that a gas range is inherently more dangerous that schizos always post here. Those retards leaving their stoves unattended are just as likely to do the same thing no matter what kind of stove they have, and as the study posted mentions, it's actually easier to accidentally leave an electric stove on unattended by mistake since the coil may be energized but not glowing, which a flame is pretty much always obvious at a glance. They also mention that even after being turned off an electric coil can still be dangerous and a fire hazard, as it take a while for them to cool down and during that time can still ignite things like cooking oil, towels, etc.

Ultimately I don't give a fuck what other people choose to cook on, but anyone who comes at me claiming I'm endangering myself because I use gas can go fuck themselves, I'm fucking sick of people trying to advocate for getting rid of things I like using to protect me from things that are only dangerous if I suddenly become retarded.

Induction can be decent, but some are so unbelievably bad
The difference between level 7 and 8 (out of 9) is unreal, it ruins my cast iron pan.
The deadzone is fucking tiny (so the edges of the pan will be cold)
Some will have heat limiters (with no indicator) so it randomly won't get as hot
Annoying as fuck to control, especially with more than one burner at a time (especially since most of them have digital controls)

So, I've cooked on electric coil, the IR glasstops, gas (propane), and I have a countertop induction I have for emergency gas-out scenarios. I also have a charcoal grill and a firepit. In other words, I've seen em all.

Here are the important points:
1. Boiling water is fastest in a kettle, hands down. All stove tops suck for boiling water, just compare the BTUs if you need to be assed to compare max power.

2. Resistive electric coils fucking suck. Weird heat transfer, heat waste, hot/cold spots, slow AF, you name it, it has it as a problem.

3. Glasstop IR and induction are a pain because you have to stay in contact with them to get heat and they do this pulsing shit. It's very obvious with IR because you see the red glow go on and off.

4. Gas is the best of all worlds, it gives decent heat transfer, lets you do chef shit like toss crap in woks, and if you have a high output burner you have a chance at getting near wok hay. Instant on/off, lets you char shit, and lets you light alcohol on fire for flambe purposes.
- It does waste heat, heating the kitchen, but this is a pro in the winter, only a con in the summer.

5. Gas also supports griddle attachments! Meanwhile you can get fucked for griddle stuff if IR or electric. Not sure if the full scale induction stuff supports it or not, but I bet it doesn't. Meanwhile, I have an actual griddle I can set on my gas stovetop if I want it.

6. Fire and charcoal are great, and impart flavor to food, so I totally get loving this stuff (because I do as well), but it has a major con on being a pain to do fire management for. So it's hard to do daily without it being a full time job.

7. Gas is cheaper than electric sources. It just is. Electrical heating is just fucking terrible when it comes to cost. And I'm not even getting it piped directly to me, some dude has to tanker deliver my propane to me. Still cheaper than the leftist co-op power company prices.

don't lump IR in with induction
Gas is king but IR is still better than induction by a long shot. IR has even heating--induction doesn't and unlike you claimed IR will still heat warped pans where there isn't contact with the burner surface. IR also gives you consistent temperatures while induction takes the temperature setting as a suggestion.
