Haha I’m gonna sit here and scrape some crust or get all the oil perfectly gone? No, not a chance. I know who put the oil there. I did. It’s simple.

    Induction stoves typically have much functional higher heat output than gas at least in a home setting, they also don’t need much cooling since the coil itself doesn’t heat much. It always dominates in water boiling etc tests.

    A gas stove heats the air/plasma a lot of which is carried away by convection, you can’t hold your face above a gas burner cranked to max but it wont even feel warm above an induction stove at max (until the pot is hot of course and convecting that way). An induction stove heats basically directly opposite the coil, the reason they have magnetic interlocks is because if they are on and you move a ringed finger over the stove it will almost immediately amputate the finger as ~2 kW are dumped into like 10 grams of metal. Idk if you’ve ever seen induction forging but you can heat metal at insane speeds using induction. I have cracked cast iron by throwing it straight on my shitty cheap induction stove at max power.
