In January 2011 it was decided by the Hotel that we would
upgrade our kitchen facilities so that we could provide a better and more
consistent service to our guests. It took the kitchen team several months to
decide exactly what format the new kitchen would take, in the end it was
decided that we would move away from gas stoves and go 100% electric, thereby
making the kitchen safer and more efficient. To maximise energy efficiency it
was decided to use induction cookers as the backbone of the Kitchen.
Induction cookers are energy efficient as they only use
power when a special type of pan is placed on them. This is as the result of
magnets that detect when a pan has been placed on the stove and thus provides
power and heat to that stove. The wonders of induction cookers are that once
this pan has been taken off, the magnet disengages and completely cuts off
power and heat to that stove, thereby instantly cooling the cooking surface to
make it safe to touch. As the special pans have magnetic properties, the
heating effect is concentrated in a thin layer near the surface, thus making
the heating effect stronger.
Induction cookers are incredibly complicated so I have only
touched on the brief details of how the cookers work. If you are intrigued by
this, then why not take a look at this information page on Wikipedia about induction
cooking;
The induction cookers that have been installed in our
kitchen are the first of their kind to be manufactured in the UK UK
The refurbishment of the kitchen was completed on the 14th
Jan 2012 and was both on time and on budget. The end result is fantastic; these
new stoves have given the chefs much more control over the cooking process and
the consistency of the food. So far we have not managed to burn anything.
