In this article, we will answer all these questions.

Differences between an induction multicooker and a conventional

If you understand what induction heating is in a multicooker, then the principle of operation of such a device is that the heating element is the bowl itself, constructed from a special alloy, which is heated by a magnetic field, which in turn is simultaneously and evenlydistributes the temperature of the bowl and food.

In a classical multicooker, the tubular electric heater first heats the bottom of the bowl, and only then the heat spreads further, which takes more time and the food does not start immediately. In some models, the tubular electric heater is located at the bottom of the bowl, on the sides and on the lid of the case creating the effect of the so-called 3D heating.

Pros and cons of

The main disadvantage of an induction multicooker is that a high-quality device with a large number of operating modes will have to fork out. But it is still worth spending on it, because in addition to helping in the kitchen, the induction multicooker has other advantages:

• energy efficiency;
• fire safety;
• cooking speed;
• use of prepared food.

Also, multivarks have an irreplaceable function “delayed start”.The principle of this function is that you can leave the food in the bowl and choose the method of cooking, and the cooking process will begin after the time the user needs( usually up to 24 hours).

Harm to health

It is impossible to give a clear answer to the question whether there is harm or benefit from an induction multicooker, since the benefits of food depend primarily on products. And the magnetic field created by the induction multicooker is harmless for a person, since the multicooker case blocks it.

Damage to the classic multicooker working on a tubular energy heater in its fire hazard. It heavily loads the grid and is not recommended for use in a house with unreliable wiring.
