Are there any 'smart' appliances that can respond to what is happening in the pot? If the recipe says 'bring to boil, then simmer', then I want the smart stove

Are there any 'smart' appliances that can respond to what is happening in the pot?
If the recipe says 'bring to boil, then simmer', then I want the smart stove to do that ~10 kW at first and automagically lower the power once the content is boiling.
- actionfromafar 3y agoThat's a great idea! A boost button, to run 20 seconds or something, would suffice for most needs. Or a boost "timer knob" for that tactile goodness.
- gampleman 3y agoThere are. My parents have an induction hob that sort of does that. I think the biggest issue with these kinds of "smart" features is the UI: you don't really want a hob that has dozens of buttons etc, that you don't understand, nor many menus with options, etc.
- akamaka 3y agoYes, for example: https://www.breville.com/us/en/products/commercial/cmc850.html https://www.breville.com/us/en/products/commercial/cmc850.ht... I’ve read many reviews of it and the people who have one claim that these precise temperature control features are the future of cooking.
- searchresults_ 3y agoYes, it is the future! Once you use one you can't go back. I can't use gas anymore after using the Breville Control Freak for years.
- OJFord 3y agoI had a pretty 'dumb' AEG induction hob that would do that. Sort of effective, but honestly I never used it other than figuring out how to do it once - combination of fiddly to do and just not something I personally think is that useful.
