Gas ranges expose their users to low levels of incomplete combustion products like NO2, CO, formaldehyde, and fine particulates. Way more than electric stoves though and those things are not good for the developing lungs and brains of children.

I've spent the past couple weeks taking care of a relative and they have one of those totally flat electric stovetops and I never thought I'd miss my dumb electric coils but here we are

Who the gently caress prefers electric stoves over gas :psyduck:

I grew up in an area that didn't have gas so just got used to cooking on electric stoves. Then I moved somewhere with gas cooking & suddenly everything cooked quicker & I was used to a way more sedate pace & the rhythms of working on an electric hob. I recognise that gas is better but I just like familiarity in the kitchen or else I get irrationally stressed out.

with electricity you can have the induction kind of stovetop which is actually the best.

It never ceases to amuse me that you can barely describe a podcast, never mind criticize it, without people getting upset. It's like a film thread, but every film is Star Wars. People, me included, get crazy personal about them.

Anyway, yeah Disgorgeous can be okay if you have some interest in wine, and have a high tolerance for aimless yapping. I would recommend it if you, like me, are incapable of being alone with your own thoughts, and do not care when someone calls a type of wine you like something vaguely insulting.

electric stoves loving suck. you have no control over your heat level and it's slow to respond to changes, whereas gas is immediate. there's a reason professionals all use gas ranges.

My opinions are the best, you're just jealous. :colbert:

Gas is messy. You'll spill something, it gets burned on there and there are all of these nooks and crannies making cleanup a bitch. In most cases a good induction will get you equal or better performance, with much easier cleanup at lower running costs. I would prefer gas for wokking, but even then only if we're talking a proper wok range, induction is still preferably to wokking on a conventional stove top burner. Just make sure your induction is well ventilated and it's pretty much the ideal solution available.

It's probably an electric tea kettle thing. Over in jolly ol' 'ngland gu'vnar they work faster than they do in the US. Presumably doubling the pay of the electrons to 230 volts (IANAE) would also make electric stoves heat faster as well. But you gotta admit, piping a deathly greenhouse gas that at best smells of rear end about just so your overpriced cast iron (also old fashioned garbage) heats up 30 seconds faster is dangerously close to boomer mindset. ya'll old.

maybe one day, but for now, if your electricity is coming from a fossil fuel plant then a gas stove produces less emissions because of inefficiencies in generating electricity

electric stoves are two-pole breakers so are 240V already and sized for a 40A continuous load.
