2 BURNER ELECTRIC STOVE TOP

2 Burner Electric Cooktops

Waring Pro – Top rated 2-burner electric Countertop
Portable cookers are so versatile in where you can use them, and no wonder you find the 2 burner electric cooktops in small office kitchens, student dorms, travelling caravan and even at home for emergencies and cooking outdoors.
I find them safer to use than gas burners, and wherever there is electricity to plug them in, you can be sure to get your meal cooked real quick.
Many portable electric stoves have fast and powerful heating elements or plates, and can be up to 1500 watts capacity or more, which is suitable for cooking large family meals. The temperature controls are either manual, or touch sensitive in more sophisticated brands.
Variable heating control is a common feature in all electric cooktops, and portable two burners have this too. The more power you have in an electric cooktop with adjustable thermostat. the wider range of cooking temperature available to suite the variety of meals you will be cooking.
You will be surprised at how quickly elements in a 2 burner portable cooker heats up, distributing heat evenly on your cookware and cooking your meal very nicely.
I like to prepare my meals as quickly as I can, and a two burner cooktop gives me that advantage over a one burner electric cooktop. When my favorite rice meal simmering on burner, stew to go with the rice is getting ready on the other burner. It is fun to time my cooking, and get meals that go together ready for the dinner table at the same time. I will not be able to do this without my 2 burner electric cooktop.

2-Burner Stove or 3?

Stove on the Catalina 385
A big trend that I noticed at the Annapolis Sailboat Show was the use of 2-burner stoves on almost all of the boats under roughly 45 feet.  I also saw this on some of the smaller power boats during the powerboat show.  (While I noticed it at the show, going from boat to boat, the basic issue is one to think about whether you’re looking at new boats, used boats or contemplating a new stove in your existing boat.)
When I commented on the number of 2-burner stoves I was seeing, my husband Dave asked why it was a big deal.  He asked how often I cooked with more than two pans.  And there are some advantages to a 2-burner stove:

• Takes up less space — counter doesn’t have to be as deep

• Lower cost

• Easier to get balanced on gimbal (on a 3-burner, you’ll have to balance your cooking with a pot of water on the other half)

But the number of burners isn’t the only difference between a 2- and 3-burner stove.  The 3-burner also has a larger oven.
The larger oven is good for several reasons:

• Even with a 3-burner stove, the oven is smaller than a home oven.  But you can get a 9″ x 13″ pan in most, and can’t with the typical oven on a 2-burner stove.

• You need at least a couple of inches between any pan (or baking stone) and the oven walls for air flow.  Small ovens really limit pan size!

• The smaller the oven, the more problems you’re going to have with hot spots and all the hot air escaping when you open the door.  Hot spots and uneven baking are basically caused by small ovens where the heat source is close to the pan in places and where there is a smaller volume of hot air.

The specs are slightly different for every stove manufacturer, but here’s a comparison of three models of Force 10 — the American Standard 3-burner, American Standard 2-burner and the European Compact 2-burner (which I saw in many boats).  Force 10 has other models as well — I choose these as being some of the most popular sizes.
