Did you buy that induction from Kerala or do you live out of India? I had to buy mine from the UK. Had to pay double the price because of Import and Custom charges.
I have seen those plates online to sell, but they don't have good reviews. You should make a video with induction cookware and one of these plates for comparison. Some of them have a thick dish welded to the bottom. I assume the cast iron would be the best choice.
I immediately thought of this after realizing I couldn't use my aluminum pressure cooker, I'm surprised this method isn't more advertised with the induction cooktops. Also, I'm thinking it would work better if the diffuser was closer in size/diameter to the pot/pan you're trying to use? So I'm going to try a few different sizes to see if makes any difference. I plan to look around for some nice, flat scrap stainless steel or and cut it down to size, but I assume any magnetic metal will work the similarly.
@@szarbaba did it work? i think that might be even more efficient than an iron pan because the energy would be directly in the liquid rather than the bottom and side of the iron pan
I totally understand the need for a work around, given the cost of getting new cookware. I however think it’s inefficient given that the induction cooktop is meant to be efficient. Has anyone tried measuring how much more electricity consumption this workaround costs?
eso era exactamente lo que pensé al ver el video.... la "descompensación" de la eficiencia... That´s exactly what I was wondering... the grade of losing efficiency doing that...
Yes it is less efficient, however sometimes there is no alternative. We have moved to induction but still need to be able to use our 50 year old aluminium pressure cooker. These adapters make this possible.
I've been thinking about this. Just wondering if anyone knows any thermal conductive cloth that we can put between the adapter plate and the non-inductive cookware that may improve the efficiency? The closest thing I have found is re-useable CPU thermal pads like Thermal Grizzly Carbonaut or IC Graphite, but these are usually quite small in size and I'm concerned about it sticking to the bottom of the cookware. The other option is to get a combo ceramic/induction cooktop, but for some strange reason all the major brands will do gas/induction or gas/ceramic combi sets but never ceramic/induction combi. The only ones I've been able to find are from no name minor brands.
The proper use of this is only as a buffer to even up the heat for low temperature simmering only, for foods that easily burn such as some grains and sauces. This is because many basic induction cooktops cycle between a full 1500 watts and zero watts, and the 1500 can make pan temperatures spike too high for these particular foods. .
When you measure for your hob, do you get the full circle of the induction ring or just get one that measures the same for the element on the induction? How do you buy one and get the right measurement without damaging your induction?
But you may not get the real benefit of using an induction coooker with the indirect heating of the cookware. (Induction cooker saves times & energy with fast cooking)
I have two of these and yes they do work, to a point, if you put an aluminium pot on the plate it takes twice as long to heat up and cook the contents. Also whatever pan you put on the plate must be absolutely flat bottomed, or it will not work. I have two quite expensive very good quality stainless steel saucepans, which of course , because they are top quality are not magnetic, but they still won't heat up on these plates, as their bases are not totally flat. The very best solution is to scrap these useless halogen/ induction hobs, and fit a gas one!!
Good luck with the rising gas prices then. We're moving to induction right now, simply to save money and cut the gas use down to hot water for washing up and showers only.
I'd love a gas hob but there's no room for propane tanks. That the adapter only works with flat pans sort of breaks the deal for me because I warped my steel pan right away on my induction top. Maybe a cast iron adapter would work with warped pans by radiative transfer if it were black and not polished like the stainless ones that don't radiate much?
Almost an year after the post. . . . . . I know!!! It didn't happened that the adapter harm some way the ceramic glass surface? Are you still using it?
@@bigalandann yes, I thought so and still not convinced. Plate and pot are two separates units. It'll take longer to transfer the heat to the pot and the plate always will be hotter. On the other hand have to consider the vibration of the induction on two separates units.
@@nomad155 Sorry to hear that; the deffusser I got from Wal-Mart.com $25 heats evenly across the entire surface. Don't give up induction is still awsume!
if you want to make it work for claypot, you can buy a induction converter disk that you can place inside your claypot to cook. I bought a induction friendly claypot made in Japan that comes with this metal plate But I see some of these sold separately online. You can search it up
Yes! as a matter of fact I am using that as I post this. The induction cooker heats the deffusser; the deffusser heats your cookweare. With a slight loss of efficiency.

I wonder if a small piece of mild steel or cast iron was placed IN the pot, would that be a better solution?

Were you trying to show that the water can boil with the use of the adapter? Because, if so...did I miss that part??

How is this Electrolux induction? Still working in 2022?
Kya aluminium bartan us ho sakta hai please bataiye
Can you cook a papad / papadum on that
Hello, do you still use the converter disk? If so, does it still work and didn't cause any damange to the induction cooktop or overall cookware?
Glass is harder than steel, so it won't scratch.
@@SkepticalCaveman it will, and it does.

Would this work with a ceramic tagine? I've just converted to induction and I'm trying to work out whether I can use a tagine pot.
Iam sorry, iam not sure about that
@@JaslinPJames Thank you.
Yes. The conversion plate is ferrous material and will be heated by the induction surface. ANYTHING placed on the plate will be heated.
Almost an year after the post. . . . . . I know!!!
It didn't happened that the adapter harm some way the ceramic glass surface?
Are you still using it?
The adapter doesn't damage the hob. When you think about it, the adapter plate acts just like the bottom of a pan on the hob.
@@bigalandann yes, I thought so and still not convinced. Plate and pot are two separates units. It'll take longer to transfer the heat to the pot and the plate always will be hotter.

Instead of an adapter, can you use cast iron instead?
Yes cast iron works
Cast iron should work on its own
@@aarone.1981 Only problem is induction heats a small area. I'm hoping this thing can spread the heat better
@@nomad155 Sorry to hear that; the deffusser I got from Wal-Mart.com $25 heats evenly across the entire surface. Don't give up induction is still awsume!
@@aarone.1981 I appreciate that! 😁
I was wondering about the performance.... How long does it take to heat up the water using the adapter compared to an induction pot?
If you use a bigger non induction pot on top of the adapter with more surface area of contact it work faster.
@@JaslinPJames From where you bought that adapter 😉
@@angel0fangelsangel504 amazon
Does it take more time than normal method.?
Only a little
Yes, it takes longer
@@JaslinPJames ok
@@aarone.1981 ok
Price
Nice 👍👍👍👍
Does aluminum work?
Yes; ALL cookware works worth the plate.
Are you using this still now?
Is it safe to use it like this ?
It is safe, but it gets heated while in use
use heat transmission compund for better heating purpose between these converter and pots
after applying it on induction cooker can we use clay pots on it?
Yes you can :)
Is it working with clay pots ???
Please reply
No it will not work with clay pot
@@JaslinPJames ohh.. Ok thanx
Actually it will; the deffusser heats up; (anything) you set on the deffusser will heat!

Does this work for stove top coffeemaker like the mokapot?
I dont think so
@@JaslinPJames thankyou!!
It should work. The entire adaptor gets hot it's basically like if you put the moka pot onto a flat grill.
Where can i buy 11" one
Try Amazon
@@JaslinPJames Really? i did i wouldn't have asked if i hadn't found one there obviously.
These don't work. I spent £20 and it took 23 minutes to boil water and kept turning my induction hob off.
thanks... can you tell me does the whole disc get hot or just where the circles on the stove are??? thank you
The disk got heated up fully.
@@JaslinPJames thank you
The problem is it's too costly in india!
It’s not costly, it’s you poor
What is the brand of this induction disc? Thank you!
Bought it online. Amazon
Machine automaticly turn off case of over heating reason
How can patches? Plzz sare me inline link
very very helpful👍👍👍👍👍👍💗💗💗
Do you know if you can turn the incessant beeping noise off ?
I have it but its not working properly, my suggestion is not to buy
That doesn’t make sense. If you use it as a griddle yes it work . But as an adapter?
Never cook food directly on deffuser!!!
lol...the adapter had a paper sticker on it ...should have scrap it off before...
Does it work with Pyrex?
Sorry, I don't Know about that.
Yes! as a matter of fact I am using that as I post this. The induction cooker heats the deffusser; the deffusser heats your cookweare. With a slight loss of efficiency.
how to by this product please Give link in discrupctio
Horrible vid.
will it bring the water to a RAPID BOIL?
Wastage of energy. Less efficient
Probably, but it lets you use your cookware that isnt compatible instead of having to buy all new stuff
I do agree that it is less efficient.
I think actually it's work like hotplate oven but its not gave 100% activities so wastage of time and money.
Idiocracy
This will consume more electiricty
