@sjw You mean like they duty cycle instead of lower output?

@matrix @matrix that's exactly what electrical stoves do.
It makes some forms of cooking (like getting a reliable sear without burning) nearly impossible.

@sjw I think that's more related to the thermal inertia instead of the cycling but I guess so

@matrix @matrix yes and also no.
It's way harder to make fine adjustments to heat even if you have good pans

@sjw Yeah, but that's because your adjustments are delayed so you basically have to predict them

@sjw Obviously also depends on the stove how fine the controls actually are

@sjw The large inertia also isn't a problem on induction cooktops

@matrix @sjw professional chefs use gas ranges for a reason, and why chemists use bunsen burners still. Electic is fine for some things and not fine for others.
