Electronics & Appliances Countertop Oven vs Glass Turbo Oven?

I think I am going to try the 'Turbo Oven' route. The kitchen upper cabinets are installed for a range, there is a separate backsplash installed for behind a range, but the lower cabinets and countertop are installed straight across, no opening for a range. I have an induction "burner", and will get the Turbo Oven plus a double gas burner stove to supplement and be brownout proof (for cooking anyways).

 

I use that same combination, along with a barbecue. The gas burner and barbecue are on a separate gas "jugs" so I always have at lease one source of cooking fuel, electricity, gas jug 1, or gas jug 2. The two jugs have not run out of gas at the same time. I just move the jug to the unit I need gas on. I really do not use the barbecue too often as the turbo does the grilling part.

 

I think it's your nose, Brian... I've lived in 4 places in and around Dumaguete, do a lot of stovetop and oven cooking - never smelt the gas.

 

Which either means the gas burned completely - or - the odor that is added in other parts of the world so you can smell it is not added here? So back to the wonderfully helpful, it is safe - unless it is not.

 

Yes, odour is added here - you can often get a whiff of it when changing over the cylinders.

 

Correct me if I am wrong but I think Brian meant on after burn?

 

I'm not 100% sure but I think the cooking gas here is natural gas and can be any combination of ethane, methane, propane and butane. Sometimes it burns clean and other times not.
I bought a cook top (italian) and it came with jets for propane and another set for natural gas.
Natural gas is odorless so the suppliers and ethylmercaptain to give it that smell.
Keeping the burners clean really helps them burn clean. On the cheap cookers a little dirt in the plenum where the gas and air mix makes them almost not work.

 

When you say natural I wonder as I always thought (Echoed by the Link I Put up) that it was LPG which I guess is a natural derivative of Oil but natural gas is from exploration of the sea bed but......

 

LPG is liquefied propane gas. LNG is liquefied natural gas. People use,and the terms interchangeably and truly they are not the same. At least as far as I know.

 

They are not the same which is why you need to know which is required for your particular burner. Some burners come with the necessary parts to replace so it can be used with either gas. Can't just use one or the other, have to swap out the parts first.
