Best sizes for pod cooking

We've been looking at the Instant pot too! 

Check out Magma 10 Piece Stainless Steel Induction Cook-Top Gourmet Nesting Cookware Set. You can find it on a number of sites. We got ours at the site named for a river in South America. I have seen it in a web search at a number of sites at various prices. Magma also makes a non-stick version. The stainless, if not overheated, is sufficiently non-stick for me and there is no coating to scratch or wear off.

Originally posted by g4royce We had looked at induction cooktops early on but the plug-in models didn't seem to have enough power.  Plus we were afraid that more powerful models would blow out the circuits in the pod. We'll have a look at the newer models since it's been a few years since we last looked.

We used an induction cooktop on our recent trip. It was a model we picked up at Aldi and varies between 100 Watts and 1800 Watts  of cooking power. We had no problems using it.

Watts = Volts * Amperes. At 120 Volts, 1800 Watts is 15 Amperes. That is within the capability of the R-Pod's wiring. Most of the time, you would not be using it at full power anyway. Full power is good for bringing water to a boil (quite fast), but would be too much power for most other cooking. Once the pan warms up, I find that I can cut the power down to 600 Watts or less.

We got the 10 piece induction ready nesting cookware set from Magma. It works well and does not take up a huge amount of space. The handles are excellent also and won't fall off like the ones from the cheap nesting cookware sets. This is real cookware.
 

Or even a cheap one-burner electric stove, we've had one for years in our pod.  Cheaper than a one-burner induction but the same functionally.

Try an induction cooking unit-  works great inside or outside the 'Pod.
