De Dietrich induction stove top - Boiling Water Demo

A short video, hand held, shoing how responsive the De Dietrich induction stovetop is - and this one was only connected to a 15 amp circuit - not 48 amp for full power.

Thanks. The "boost" feature is mant to be temporary, up to say 10 minutes, where all power is directed to the one burner. If you want a good explanation Google search "Induction Cooking: Kitchen Electricity 101" and check the first result. Scrool down to the heading - Actual versus Rated Unit Powers - or CTL F to search for it. This introduces the concept of power sharing, and boost

Yes there are steps. There are 15 steps and one "boost" which I am not sure what does, perhaps brings it to fast boil? In any case I think 15 steps allows for enough incremental changes to the induction process. These 15 steps are divided up into 3 groups, so you push the first and it goes to 3 or 4 the next one is higher up the scale and the next one is max. This makes it easier than tapping the + or - button numerous times to go from one end of the scale to the other.

Is the heat control continuous or in steps? My Breville portable induction cooker has steps and when using a pressure cooker I can't set the ideal temperature to maintain a constant pressure. I have to keep changing the settings and at some stages even turn the cooker off to reduce the pressure to the desired level.

I own one of them (DT1706X COOKTOP, 3 zone) and it's amazing. The control over the heat is incredible. The speed at which it gets hot is also great. I hate waiting, I want instant response and this product satisfies my desire for this in the kitchen.
