How to access this tool

Drop-in use

Drop into the workshop during our opening hours to use this tool, but ask a technician if you need any training first.

Key information

Green tools are our general-use tools. These have either been demonstrated or explained in your New Member Induction, or are safe for use after a demonstration by a technician. Always ask a member of staff before using any green tools for the first time, or if you are not sure how to use these safely.

Induc­tion hobs fea­ture a high-fre­quency elec­tro­mag­net cre­at­ing a mag­net­ic field between the cook­top and the pan. This then pen­et­rates the iron in pans, essen­tially cre­at­ing heat energy inside of them. 

This pre­ci­sion hob allows users to set and main­tain exact cook­ing tem­per­at­ures between 30°-250°C.

  • A sensor in the glass sur­face dir­ectly meas­ures its sur­face temperature. 
  • A probe ther­mo­met­er attach­ment to pre­cisely con­trol the tem­per­at­ure of both water and fat-based liquids.
  • The Intens­ity func­tion allows con­trol over the rate at which the ideal tem­per­at­ure is met.
  • A Cre­ate func­tion stores fre­quently used cus­tom tem­per­at­ure pro­files for one-touch recall.
  • The timer runs up to 72 hours with Repeat, Con­tin­ue, Keep Warm and Stop Cook­ing functions 

What can I use this tool for?

Pre­cise cook­ery of liquids e.g. sauces, sug­ar­work, cheese or tofu mak­ing, and for poach­ing in water-based liquids or deep fry­ing in oil. 

The integ­rated probe can also be used in ther­mo­met­er mode to mon­it­or the core tem­per­at­ure of sol­id foods like steaks, cut­lets, and fil­lets in a fry­ing pan. 

The heat intens­ity con­trol allows you to adjust the intens­ity while keep­ing the tem­per­at­ure mod­er­ate and con­stant, redu­cing the need for a double boil­er for tasks like mak­ing hol­landaise, cit­rus curd, or tem­per­ing chocolate. 

The cre­ate func­tion enables you to save and name fre­quently used set­tings so that they can be recalled to get con­sist­ent res­ults with tasks like toast­ing spices or mak­ing yoghurt. 

What training do I need to use this tool?

Yel­low tools require fur­ther train­ing, by arrange­ment with a technician.
