The AGA 110 cm Traditional Hood is the perfect partner to your new Masterchef XL range style cooker from AGA. This technologically advanced hood will efficiently whisk away cooking smells and fumes, leaving the kitchen more pleasant and enjoyable to work in. When deciding to purchase the cooker hood you need to make a choice, whether to install the hood as a recirculation model or as a ducting system.
AGA Masterchef XL features a refined blend of advanced cooking features.
GLIDE-OUT GRILL
Positioned on smooth-action telescopic runners, the glide-out
grill does exactly that. Not only is it easier to check up on your
food as it's grilling but it's also safer, as it reduces the risk
of pulling the grill out too far.
MULTIFUNCTION OVEN
This large 69 litre, multifunction oven offers fan oven,
conventional oven, fan-assisted oven, base heat, fanned grilling,
browning element , defrost and Rapid Response functionality.
SLOW COOKING OVEN
Thermostatic control for gentle cooking of dishes such as
casseroles or drying out
meringues. Also ideal for keeping dishes hot prior to serving or
for warming plates.
FAN OVEN
A large 69 litre, fan oven particularly suitable for baking on
several shelves at one time, as an even heat is produced throughout
the oven.
The AGA Masterchef XL is available with either a gas hob or an induction hob.
GAS HOB
Each of the six gas burners on the Masterchef XL gas
hob are rated to provide the optimum heat level to suit your type
of pan or style of cooking. There are four sizes of burners varying
in size from 1 kW to 3.5 kW.
INDUCTION HOB
The induction hob is comprised of 5 zones, in each zone the
standard maximum power is between 1.15 kW and 1.85 kW . A boost
functionality, however, enables the maximum power to reach between
2 kW and 3 kW offering improved flexibility and
controllability.
Each of the six gas burners on the Masterchef XL gas hob are rated to provide the optimum heat level to suit your type of pan or style of cooking. There are four sizes of burners including:
TWO 3.5 kW TRIPLE RING BURNERS
Immensely powerful and controllable burners produce heat from
three areas and evenly distribute heat around a wok. Also suitable
for large saucepans and casseroles.
ONE 3 kW LARGE BURNER
This is great for your frying pan to cook lambs liver, bacon or
pancakes, allowing fast and controllable heat.
TWO 1.7 kW MEDIUM BURNERS
Ideal for everyday use, including warming soup, boiling
vegetables, cooking pasta or rice.
ONE 1 kW SMALL BURNER
Suitable for attentive cooking such as scrambled eggs, custard and
other delicate sauces.
GAS HOB ACCESSORIES
A griddle and wok ring are also supplied with the gas hob
model.
GRIDDLE
Made from robust cast aluminium, the griddle plate sits snugly on
top of the hob, when required. The flat plate is ideal for cooking
eggs, while the grooved plate provides fat drainage, offering a
healthier way to sear steaks, burgers, vegetables and fish.
WOK RING
An enamelled cast iron wok ring is supplied with the gas hob
model.
LPG CONVERSION KIT
A LPG conversion kit is included with the dual fuel model.
ENERGY EFFICIENT
Powered by electromagnetism, induction technology heats only the
pan and its contents, providing up to 90% efficiency. The induction
hob also features pan identification that automatically detects
when cookware is removed. This makes it easy to keep a pan at
minimal heat without fear of burning, and the cooking zones will
automatically turn off when pans are removed - saving energy and
improving safety.
FAST AND RESPONSIVE
It can take as little as five seconds for water to begin boiling
on an induction hob, making it a much quicker option than gas or
electric ceramic cooking. Reducing the pan to simmering is equally
fast and the responsive nature of induction is quickly making it a
firm favourite in professional kitchens.
SAFE
Since there are no naked flames and only the pan and its contents
are heated, induction is considered to be the safest hob option
available. After very long cooking spells, however, there is a
possibility that the hob surface may
become too hot to touch, so AGA has taken the extra precaution of
including a Residual Heat Indicator, which provides an automatic
visual warning that a zone should not be touched if it rises above
60° C. The addition of zones with child lock facility also prevents
little fingers from coming to harm on the hob.
UNIFORM COOKING
One of the many benefits of induction is its ability to improve
your cooking results. Because the ferrous materials within the
cookware heat at the same level uniformly, you don't get any hot
spots. That means you're less likely to burn the contents or cook
half the dish to a crisp while leaving the rest raw and you don't
need to stir as
often to achieve even heating throughout.
EASY TO CLEAN
Induction hobs are easier to clean because the cooking surface is
flat and smooth. In addition, because the surface isn't heated, any
spillages won't burn on and so are easy to wipe clean.
People with cardiac pacemakers or implanted insulin pumps must make sure that their implants are not affected by the induction hob (the frequency range of the induction hob is 20-60kHz).
As you would expect from AGA, the Masterchef XL is a refined blend of advanced cooking features and proven craftsmanship.
Made in the UK and built to last - the Masterchef XL undergoes an extensive series of rigorous tests throughout the build process to ensure that durability, reliability and excellent performance are intrinsic to every single component.
