Domino module cooking surface: electrical and gas modules, additional blocks, options for combinations of panels, manufacturers, prices
The electric cooking surface is convenient and contemporary, but gas-cheaper, and such burners, like Wok or Teppan Yaki, allow you to prepare exotic dishes. How to connect all this variety? Nothing is impossible: Collect the cooking surface from Modules "Domino".
Modules "Domino" are narrow blocks (panels) with one or two burners or other working element (grill, fryer, steamer IDR), built in the worktop. If you have a small kitchen, it is permissible to limit ourselves to only one panel, for example with two burners. Achetoba is fully prepared and tasty, you can make any combination of panels, combining them into one system, where gas, say, adjacent to electricity, grilled with an IT fryer. In general, there is no limit combinations. Installing blocks and in different parts of the kitchen is possible. You create your own unique kitchen, an individual working area, where you just need it. Some prefer to complement with modules (for example, a steaming) a full-fledged cooking surface, thus keeping the scarce kitchen space that would take a separately worth the device.
It is advisable to collect the system from the blocks of one manufacturer's company, since they have a single design. But if you were attracted by the panels of different companies, they can also be connounced. After all, the dimensions of the modules are usually standard - 500300mm.

Life in fire
If the house is supplied to your home, gas modules will be the best option. They can have one or two burners, as well as different diameter (for different dishes) and power. So, the power of economical burners is approximately 1 kW, standard- about 2 kW, and the wok is even 4.5 kW.As a rule, gas burners are installed on a metal surface. Especially spectacular they look on polished steel, less often appear on glass ceramics. The burners are with cast iron or metal lattices or without them without them, which is more convenient when cleaning. Modern models outwardly little resemble old appliances: they are made so that they look great even in combination with designer electric glass-ceramic panels.
Gas modules- "Domino", as well as their full-size "counterparts", are equipped with a gas control system, automatically overlapping gas supply if the flame will accidentally go out. To enable them, you can do without matches: if the panel is equipped with an automatic electrically liquefy, you only need to turn the switch and the burner is ready to work.
What to choose, glass or steel?
The surface of modules "domino", as well as ordinary cooking panels, is mainly made of glass-ceramic and steel (polished and enamel). Glasskeeper is one of the most popular materials. It is beautiful and easy to care, but it does not tolerate mechanical damage: when it can appear on it, chips may appear on it. In addition, such a panel "does not like sweets": a hot sweet liquid penetrates into the pores of the material, and when cooled, sugar crystallizes, changing the structure and properties of glass ceramics. Externally, this is manifested in whitish widespits. Enameled steel is durable and easy to care, but unstable to chips. Manufacturers prefer to use polished steel, which looks significantly more effectively. However, it remains divorces and traces from fingers, besides, it is easy to scratch it. This material will have to carefully care-tolerately wipe and clean with special means.
Electricity Greeth
There are electrical modules with cast-iron "pancakes", but more often you can see the burners of various types hidden under the glass-ceramic panel - High Light and induction. "Pancakes" is a "ancient" variety: under the cast cast-iron disk there is a spiral heating element, through which the current is underway, heating it. Spiral, in turn, gives heat disc, and it heats the dishes and products. Such burners are heated slowly (about 20 s), and they are not very comfortable to wash, but they are the cheapest. The same is the only way to assemble the electrical cooking panel completely with a metal base, and not glass-ceramic.
The most common variant of the electrical panel - with High Light hooks: a tightly laid ribbon heating element is closed with a glass-ceramic panel. Dense styling provides high heat transfer: they are heated literally for 5 s. The burner glows red until the temperature drops below 50 s, thereby preventing the hazard of the burn. The surface around the burner is practically not heated, since the glass-ceramic is well conducted heat through the thickness of the sheet and almost does not let it along.
Module for gourmet
Induction varieties are a coil of inductance from a copper wire and a power supply hidden under glass-ceramic. When a voltage is supplied to the coil, it generates an alternating electromagnetic field, and in the bottom of the dishes there are vortex currents that heat it due to the energy of the oscillating charge carriers. True, this happens only if the utensils are made of ferromagnetic material that conducts magnetic lines. The glass ceramics is good because it allows electromagnetic waves to pass through it, but does not heated. Thus, it is possible to do without one level of heat transfer, which means that heat loss decreases. Therefore, such burners are economical. By the way, if the glass-ceramic is not heated from the burner, it still does not mean that the risk of burn is excluded: after all, the surface still becomes hot from the dishes (though, its temperature rises not too intensively). Do not forget that for induction hobs you will have to pick up utensils more carefully: it should be made only from ferromagnetic material.
The burners hidden under the glass ceramics can have different power to prepare a variety of dishes. The form of them is usually round, and often there are several zones of expansion for dishes of various diameters: the sensor analyzes the size of the utensils, and the desired circuit turns on automatically. There are also varieties with an oval expansion zone for cooking, for example, in Gusyatnice.
Different additional features are responsible for the safe operation of the panel with electrical burners. For example, thanks to the function of the protective shutdown, the included module will stop working, if no one contacted it for several hours. The overflow protection is activated if the spilled fluid falls into the control panel. Almost all models are equipped with the "Locking from Children" feature. The timer will turn off the hub after the time you specify or "calls" you using the audio signal. As for the method of control, choose what you are more convenient: Switches, buttons or sensors.

Fantasy? No, opportunity
In addition to standard burners, Domino modules may include a variety of elements. Get acquainted with them closer.
Fryer. It will help cook dishes in a lurch or breading. A separately worthwhile device takes a lot of space, and the module is built into the worktop, forms a single surface with other components and is almost impaired. The main components are the capacity for the oil, located above the heating element, and the metal basket in which products are put. Separate models allow two ways to prepare the eating grill and in deep fryer. At the same time, at the top of the device is a cast iron grill grill with a built-in heating element, and only the lower part of the module-roasted container and baskets for products use for frying in the fryer.
Grill. The input module does not need to use coals, since it is an electric and heating element, as a rule, serves as a TEN. Above him is a lattice on which products are put. Often in the grill are stones from volcanic lava, used by no means to imitate cooking on coals, as many think. Unich is quite practical: they absorb fat dripping from food.
Burner-wok. It becomes very popular and serves to prepare oriental dishes in special large inxpheric frying pan. Such dishes are common in East Asia, it is convenient to fry and stew. Products in frying pan-wok are constantly stirred, and oils use little oil, so food is more useful and tastier. Usually there are two or three contour of the flame, significant power (3-5 kW) and the area, so they are faster and evenly heating the dishes of a large diameter. Several heating modes (powerful, normal and economical) allow the hostesses to expand the possibilities for cooking. For example, in economy mode, only a small internal circuit is included - this is the perfect option for making coffee in the Turk. For those where gas is unavailable, some firms, such as Gaggenau (Germany), V-Zug (Switzerland) IDR, offer electrical wok-wok.
Teppan yaki. So refer to the Japanese way of cooking: meat, fish, vegetables are fried without oil on a flat metal frying pan, externally resembling a baking sheet, and immediately serve on the table. The name gave the name to the device. His smooth polished surface is easy to care, and dishes prepared on it are not burning. Typically, there are two heating zones with Tanni, which can be adjusted independently of each other. It is convenient: you get the opportunity to fry or extinguish products in one part or extinguish products, and on the other, to maintain a ready-made food in heating mode.
Double boiler. Healthy nutrition, that is, low-calorie food with minimal fat content, will provide you with electric steamer. Yes, it is also one of the modules of the cooking surface. It is very convenient, because the device is built into the worktop, and not towers over it, occupying an excess place in the kitchen. By the way, it also defrost products. The temperature and the amount of steam can be adjusted, which is important for the preparation of various products. Usually in the double boiler there are two to three levels, and thanks to this you will be able to simultaneously prepare different dishes.
Hood. No matter how incredibly it sounds, but in the worktop can be built and hood. One of the most convenient decisions of the exhaust, if necessary, "traveling" from under the countertops. The height of the "umbrella" is changed depending on the size of the dishes. Since the extractor is in close proximity to the cooking surface, it will effectively eliminate smells. If its "umbrella" is swivel, it is equally well "gather" food flavors, which is prepared on any neighboring module. In this case, it is possible to change the power level, as well as the normal instrument. All evaporations are outlined outside the kitchen.

How much is domino?
Modules "Domino" can usually be found in the range of large companies producing household appliances: Hotpoint-Ariston (Italy), Electrolux (Sweden), Gaggenau, NEFF, Siemens (all Germany), Gorenje (Slovenia), Whirlpool (USA), Miele Idr. Many produce whole series of modules performed in a single style. From all variety you can choose exactly those you need. For example, one of the most popular is the FRONTLINE series (AEG-Electrolux), consisting of 11 elements, and Miele in the CS 1000 series offers to select the desired of the 18 blocks. The cheapest will cost the purchase of an electric module with Blink's burners - about 3 thousand rubles. A little more expensive gas - on average 4-5 thousand rubles, although the premium branded models can cost 15-20 thousand rubles. Gas on the glass offer few firms for such blocks will have to give about 10 thousand rubles.
Electric module with High Light, the medium price category brand costs about 7 thousand rubles. The device with induction burners is more expensive than 20 thousand rubles. The price of premium branded models with various additions ("automation of boiling", Emergency disconnection of the burners, Sensor control IDR.) Reaches 40 thousand rubles.
The grill module is on average 10 thousand rubles, the fryer is about 20 thousand rubles, and Konfork-Wok-5-5 thousand rubles. Such modules such as extractors are represented only in the assortment of premium brands, so they are expensive to about 70 thousand rubles.
