Food Meets Fun

‍

Cooking can be artistry with food for some and a nightmare for others. Did you remember to add the salt? Is the water boiling? How long for the noodles to cook? Is the meat cooked enough? Did I leave the stove on? Do I have enough propane? These, and several more, are questions that run through our minds when trying to prepare a meal. At Newr, we want to eliminate these questions and put your mind at ease when you’re making your favorite dish or trying something new. Our vision is to enable our users with the ability to cook without limitations commonly associated with location, electricity, propane tanks, time, space, weight, and knowledge— cook freely! In this blog post we will explain how it works.

Cooking requires skill and training which take practice and time to master. For some, it's their their passion; for others, it's an overwhelming task to take on every few hours every day. Newr built Chef, a battery-powered smart induction stove with iPhone app integration, to alleviate the learning curve or to provide a helping hand for even the most skilled. 

Induction cooking uses electromagnetic induction to heat food. The induction burner contains a copper coil that produces a magnetic field. When this magnetic field is placed near a piece of ferromagnetic material, it causes the material to heat up due to molecular vibration. This process is called induction heating.

Chef has built-in sensors and programming working on your behalf — pan detection that stops heating the moment cookware leaves the glass, tilt sensing that won’t let a badly placed stove start, and app timers that notify you while you cook. In addition to the on-board smarts, Chef pairs with the Newr app, which allows customization and management of Chef in action.

Imagine coming home after a long day and having the confidence and peace of mind to prepare a family favorite recipe or perhaps a new delicacy, with Chef, that’s now possible.

Chef is the perfect appliance for anyone new or seasoned to cooking.
