Slow cookers: model selection, features, reviews

Girls want to ask you. Thanks to our website, I already have a multicooker. Now I want a slow cooker
I have two questions
1.How much does she weigh? that is, can it be put on a washing machine?
2.Does it steam a lot when cooking, because there is a microwave over the washing machine?
It's just that there is not enough space in my kitchen, and my husband said if you find somewhere to put it, we will take it, so now I am in search of free space

there will definitely not be any problems with steam. And the weight ... the pot itself is quite weighty, if it's big, then one and a half or two kilograms, I think it will be, and plus if you put three liters of contents into it, how many, in the end, 5 kilograms easily ... I don't know how much you can put on the washer ... And the "heating pad" itself is light, you can not count it.

For such reasons, my husband gave me a big cartoon (I have Orion) for my birthday, like a lot is not enough.
And how much more interesting weighs?
Thank you

Good husband!!!! Mine, too, immediately told me to take a large one, but I was fekla, they say why? enough for a small one, and in the end it burst. I think that 2 kg more than a small one, according to the idea, should weigh!

You know. I would take a big one right now. There are two of us now, but I wanted to bake the trigger in it and did not shove it whole. And you can cook porridge even less in a large one. I already wrote that I measured the volume of water in it, I did it (damn it, I forgot), but definitely less than 3 liters out of the stated 3.5. It seems to me that it won't be enough for jellied meat! Now I'm waiting for February 14, I decided to make life easier for my husband in search of a gift. He will give it to me (large).

they actually have at least one third, it seems. But here knowledgeable people put the pots inside and get out of the situation.

And he didn't even consult with me, he just went on the sly and bought, knew that I was sleeping and in my sleep I see a multicooker.

: D girls, you just need two!
but three is better ...
the baby may well be removed, like ordinary rolls, on the shelf.

Exactly! The biggest one too (in a closet or under a shelf!)

[rusja]

That oto well, I suppose it changes with airfryer.

not, not changing yet

I think, rusja rights about teflon and ceramics. I did not use the Viscount myself, but that this is 100% not purely ceramics, it is clear as daylight. This is apparently the same basis as Brand's. That is, there are some elements, but the manufacturer secrets the technology, declaring only that it is safe. And we have no choice but to believe. So for now, the alternative to Teflon is only a slow cooker.

and I saw this ceramic bowl for the brand after a year of active use, it is erased in the same way as an ordinary non-stick one ... and you can't use iron spoons in it
I do not receive messages from the topic, I go in when I see in the activity stream, then I have to rewind 3 km

in short, I will report the results of my own research.
There are currently two types of non-stick coatings on the market - "Teflon" - with perfluorooctanoic acid, and "ceramic" - without it. There are some doubts about the hygienic properties of Teflon (sometimes turning into hysteria), about ceramic coatings so far no such doubts have been expressed (I'm afraid that only because it is quite new). When I tried to understand whether Teflon is so terrible and whether ceramics is so good, I understood only one thing - we cannot get to the bottom of the truth. Because between the manufacturers of Teflon and ceramic coatings, it seems to me, in order to avoid information war, a cunning truce was concluded, according to which "ceramists" do not spread rot "Teflonists" to death with the advantages of ceramics over Teflon, recognizing that its non-stick properties are short-lived and that Teflon is more resistant to mechanical damage. In return, I suspect, Teflonists are not digging in the direction of the sanitary safety of ceramics - they have peacefully divided the market and until someone third appears who wants his share, everything will be quiet and smooth. My personal impressions are that it is not necessary to throw away the ceramic coating in six months, mine is almost a year and nothing. Yes, it is scratched and abraded (probably, I am careful and apart from dark spots (colors from the products burned a couple of times have been absorbed) there are no defects on my defects (which means that it is not so inert). Advice - never in the dishwasher and as little wash with water, wipe with a napkin, for Teflon, however, the same.

By the way, they also dig into the "true" ceramics, they sin on bleaches and dyes ... Least of all questions about "natural color" ceramics, terracotta, but I think that only because it is little represented on the market and is not very convenient without firing in circulation, but you can always cling to the subject of "chemistry"

ceramic without firing? What is it like? it will fall apart in your hands ...

you probably meant no glaze? ie terracotta as a natural color? like, this is what I was doing tajinchik, I tried at least



usually even such ceramics are coated with flux (colorless glass) and fired at very high temperatures. Otherwise, everything will leak, the ceramics are porous.

oh, how beautiful! here are the people who are handmade!
Yes, apparently this is what I mean, I thought that ceramics without glaze are not fired ... but don't they make flower pots, for example, by simple drying?

... and don't they make flower pots, for example, by simple drying?

no, they will fall apart. And the color of terracotta clay is gray, it turns orange when fired.

why is it that ........ it remains only for me to find out in which open-hearth furnaces they burn giant clay vases for trees in parks ...can they and how slow cookers can be used

why is it that ........ it remains only for me to find out in which open-hearth furnaces they burn giant clay vases for trees in parks ... maybe they can also be used as a slow cooker

ABOUT!!! And I can find out for sure closer to spring. We have a workshop for the production of ceramic flowerpots in Balaklava (Sevastopol). Sometimes sanatoriums are ordered, so there will be a reason to ask. And then I just buy and am not interested in what and how. And here is the reason. The main thing is not to forget!

[Girls!]

Girls! Take me into your ranks. Today my dear brought me a slow cooker KENWOOD CP 638. The price is 1850 rubles.
I thought for a long, long time, "Do I need her at all?" I have a gas stove in my house. I read both topics about slow cookers, but finally came to the conclusion that "I need it!" when I read your recipes and looked at what kind of sweets you cook. Now it remains for the little thing to cook something in it. I thought and decided that it would be Jelly! thank you for the wonderful recipes, for the wonderful themes. When my dear told me that there were only recipes in the book, but how to cook was not written (he just did not look carefully), not a single muscle on my face trembled. I just calmly replied that "If there were no books at all, I would not be upset, because I have a forum and girls who will help me" Yes? So far, everything is clear. As soon as I cook something, I will immediately show my creation. Thanks again, everyone!

Girls, and about the MV in Almaty there was complete misinformation! There's nothing there, my ex. confused with a pressure cooker. What he read and where his eyes are now growing, one has only to guess
So I'm waiting for a baby from Moscow

[Girls]

Girls thank you very much for the congratulations! I am Lena and please come to me only for you
I don't stand at the stove after I bought the first slow cooker, but I will try the slow cooker the other day.
After 6 years spent as a housewife, I went to work and for me now the topic "I laid it down in the evening and got it ready in the morning" is very relevant for me.

that sho is the same !!! salt is just a mystery of nature! I managed to oversalt!
it was lentils that I made with panshetta (something like lard or brisket), of course it was salty, but I didn't seem to have much salt and sprinkled it ... at least not salt at all - I can't guess the mistake ... but in millet with I didn’t put sugar in a pumpkin - we don’t need it there ... Maybe the products cost with their salt in a slow cooker?

[Claire]

Can I share? From a blonde to a blonde .....: first_move: Just the other day, my husband bought me such a thing too, so that she could turn off the DVA when needed. I also could not figure it out right away, my husband figured it out. As described, I feel that it is the same. In general, on the side it has a switch, there is a clock symbol at the bottom. Now down and you need to move this switch. Then press these small keys as much as necessary for the DVA to work. Pressed - it works, wrung out - turns off. The disc will rotate very slowly and when it comes to the tongue / there is such a small protrusion on the opposite side of the keys /, it will turn it on or off. But what bothered me - my timer is somehow cracking badly inside and warming up, but there is no smell of plastic or something else, so now I'm afraid to leave it overnight ... It was cheap, of course, now I think, either immediately throw it away, or still use it, observe ...

Claire, well, I didn't have time to read your post, and I had to strain my brains. We have similar timers, as I understand it, only mine does not have a switch on the side, but you must immediately press those keys.

So far I have been rehearsing on a light bulb, not on MV. It turns out that you can set an unmeasured number of turn-ons per day. Convenient.

Lyalya Toy Lenochka, congratulations on your purchase of the slow cooker!

That is why this device is so popular with the owners of INCUBATORS

That's what I'm saying ... I cooked beef tongue, stewed a chicken with vegetables, made chicken porridge (), did not salt a single gram, it turned out OK. And all the vegetables are not salted, how much salt is not!

[Qween]

Qween Thank you.
Girls I have a question. I looked at the timer with an outlet in IKEA on the website it says that it is daily. Who's got what it means? It cannot be included. for 5 hours? or for 8 hours? Something I got entangled in sockets

[Lyalya Toy]

Lyalya Toy, daily - this is when you can expose programs that will run for 24 hours.

Well, no, I still have to find a slow cooker to buy, at least don't go to your topic, I'll just calm down a little ...

Buy! I also toiled, now I have 2 pieces and the third goes

[Catwoman]

Catwoman, I personally find the slow cooker an indispensable kitchen appliance. Actually, only a real stove can replace it, but where can you get it.

If it helps in making a purchase decision, then I report that a slow cooker is more affordable than even inexpensive multicooker.

Thank you, of course. Found only Kenwood, and only in the capital. I will leave this purchase until February, but 6 liters. a bit too much for us, but who has 4.5, how do you like it?

take it, don't hesitate!
I just bought a second "baby" for 1.5 liters (they have a little different modes, plus one is round and the other is oval), I thought, I drive both, and I will decide which one to keep ... that I will leave both ... And I also have 3, 5 liters (but there is a suspicion that it is perhaps too small.), I think that this is an ideal format for hot-chickens-jellied meat. But here the girls do an excellent job with the bigger ones, they put smaller pots in them, etc. ... I don't need such a big one, but if there was no choice I would have bought a larger one.

but what is really there! This is an ingenious kitchen appliance! I'm sitting here with you, and dinner is languishing for myself, AND NOTHING will happen to him, and no chemistry, and how delicious it will be ...

Thank you, of course. Found only Kenwood, and only in the capital. I will leave this purchase until February, but 6 liters. a bit too much for us, but who has 4.5, how do you like it?

I have . My favorite cache-707

And I have Kesha, but manual and mechanical 706 (4.5 liters) - 2 years old he will knock in February
And a big 6 liters - he is a year old!
I am glad to everyone and problems arose only with baked milk, because of any byaki added by the manufacturer, it curled up once, although it boiled at the same time normally, and the second time it boiled and flooded strongly to the top, even inside the heating pan it got a little numb ( soda was apparently added). And the long languor, exposed all their UNNatural insides,

Who needs slow cookers? Run to Aucre. There are 3.3 liters - 180 UAH. and 4.3 liters -190 UAH.

He still has a simple rice cooker. I mean, simple, that with a button, but not simple in terms of price and brand

Linen, in Nord on Kenwood Molodogvardeytsev at 4.5 to 2600. If it is not on display, ask for an order, in three days they will bring it. I bought myself there.

Tanyusha Tan, have you bought for a long time? And then the site is "out of stock"?

[Linen,]

Tanyusha Tan, have you bought for a long time? And then the site is "out of stock"?

Linen, on the site they do not have it, you need to go directly to the store. I bought it not so long ago. I rummaged through the entire Internet, drove through all the shops, then, purely for good luck, I went to them, they stood in the window, I took it, but the consultants explained to me what could be ordered. Come to them tomorrow, ask for an order, they said within 3 days.

Tan. What did you go to?

Tan. What did you go to?

On Molodogvardeytsev Nord, Carousel or whatever the complex is called ... near ped. schools.

what else I like about DVA is the color of the meat cooked in it. You know, it turns out that boiled meat is gray and the sausage can be pink only from dyes. That is, their sausage, maybe only from dyes, but my absolutely not dyed cutlets and baked pork from MDV came out of a very pleasant pinkish color inside. The husband even doubted whether they were raw.

[Venetian]

Venetian, the main criterion is the color of the meat (sausage) on cut after a while... There, when air enters, oxidation processes begin and normal meat turns gray. But with dyes or a certain amount of nitrate, the color remains even after cutting.

I "killed" the sellers in one branded butcher shop, when I entered for the first time and looked at the windows yelled "Gray sausage! Uraaa !!!" They actually have normal meat products that turn gray, sausage can spoil (unlike many others). But properly cooked (freshly cooked) meat on the cut has a pleasant pink color, which after some time disappears and the meat on the cut becomes normal gray.

Rina, if the sausage is green, then what? I remember when we lived in Moscow, we bought Ostankino sausage. A day later, a green circle appeared on the cut. We threw it away ... Or maybe it was just meat.

and I have a similar story with oatmeal))) Current husband devoured it, but did not turn it off)) I almost fell - I made him eat almost by force, and here such enthusiasm! And the thing is that I took the oatmeal unpeeled, and it didn’t boil for our taste, but for their Italian perverted - "al dente"))) I soaked the oatmeal (not according to the recipe, but because there were no free rosettes, but like a bread maker was shot, after 3 hours, so I added milk to the LOU, where it turned out about 5 hours. I repeat, our Russian taste would need more, but the porridge turned out - sheer health. And delicious. One problem - I have to get unpeeled oatmeal for big money and far away, you have it in supermarkets on the cheapest shelves ...

Oh, these husbands! I had such a story with my husband when there was a dog in the house. I boiled her bones lightly, and then let her chew. Well, I boiled it like that until it boils! And once she did so and followed her son to kindergarten. And my husband is a lover of bones, came home and saw a pile of cartilage bones on the table, well, he nibbled instead of a dog. I come home and hear indignation. that the pier did not cook the bones! Well, in short, the dog was left without a treat ...
And I cooked the porridge. super, but you can see that the milk curdled. But it is quite possible to eat, I chopped 2 plates, although I also do not eat milk (problems). And here it seems, even so far, nothing! ...

Rina, if the sausage is green, then what? I remember when we lived in Moscow, we bought Ostankino sausage. A day later, a green circle appeared on the cut. We threw it away ... Or maybe it was just meat.

probably already such "meat" that even saltpeter and dyes could not hide its "freshness and naturalness"

Rina, if the sausage is green, then what? I remember when we lived in Moscow, we bought Ostankino sausage. A day later, a green circle appeared on the cut. We threw it away ... Or maybe it was just meat.

yeah, that's how it was. It seems to me then there were no dyes .. there were just rumors that * toilet paper * was added, but as I remember it was also in short supply

Why work there, see how funny we are here and everything tastes good to us? Buy!

I can't decide on the model, it seems like Edik now has 4.5 liters, but he wants 6.5, and jellied meat

Take what you want, so that the pot is your favorite. Otherwise, you will regret it anyway and will have to buy more. And, anyway, if you like it, you won't stop at one

I can't decide on the model, it seems like Edik now has 4.5 liters, but he wants 6.5, and jellied meat

mmmm .... my humble opinion - take it! 4.5 is a great size! here you usually cook jellied meat in a saucepan? how much is its real volume in that saucepan? Is it more than 4 liters? and in 4.5 MDV liters 4 will enter, but in MDV it does not run away.

, but you want 6.5, and jellied meat

And, what is bad about the Ukrainian version for 6.5 liters?

When I was buying MV, I first chose 4.5 liters, I chose it for purely practical reasons, since I cannot feed a large family, well, the fact that 4.5 liters also played a role. MV with timer. Although the soul, as they say, was 6.5 liters. But before Christmas, I ran to the store and bought it for 6.5 liters, because I wanted to make a whole chicken, but 4.5 liters. I have a round one and a chicken would just break there, and even thoughts about a duck wandered, and in 4.5 liters. only pieces can fit the pitching. So, now I have 2 MB, from time to time they all work at once.

I rushed home ................... the food was almost over, I threw cabbage soup at the Moscow House of Foreign Affairs (fortunately, the broth was cooked in advance), in the cartoon a cupcake, a bread machine for the morning on the timer. What happy people we are !!!!!!!!!!!
I cook cabbage soup for the first time, in MDV naturally Tomorrow we'll see what happened

and I suffer! as the evening so I'm in the kitchen, I charge the equipment! (I try to run them at night out of economy) and do not persuade me that in return I then go to the kitchen all day only on plates to spread out, it's still a disgrace! Where are our husbands taught to charge slow cookers ?!
