BOIL TEST FOR INDUCTION COOKWARE
To test the efficiency of a pan for induction cooking,
perform a boil test.
This test is not applicable to griddles and braising pans.
NEVER heat any cooking pan on a griddle plate or in a
braising pan.
(Test for 3.5kW or 5.0kW Induction Coil)
Perform a boil test to verify the performance of a pan for
induction cooking.
•
Add one liter of cold water into the pan (optimal when
use pan with bottom diameter of 24cm) and bring it to
boil. Compare the total boil time to the guideline below:
•
3.5kW Coil, approx. 140 seconds
•
5.0kW Coil, approx. 85 seconds
If time to boil exceeds the above guideline, then the pan is
not suitable for achieving optimal efficiency. Please contact
your supplier to purchase suitable induction pans.
If the induction appliance does not function as expected
despite using quality induction pans, refer to the
troubleshooting charts.
