What kinds of cookware can I use with my induction cooktop?
In the construction of an induction cooktop, an electric coil is positioned to create a magnetic field under a ceramic top. This requires that the cooking vessel also be magnetic. Cookware that is magnetic, and compatible with induction includes: cast iron, carbon steel, 400 series stainless steel and multi-ply stainless steel that has a magnetic core. Cookware materials that will not work with induction are: copper, aluminum, glass, non magnetic stainless steel which includes 300 series of 1.0MM thickness/20 gauge or heavier.
