What is it?

The Max Burton 6450 Digital Induction Cooktop is “portable, easy to use, and energy efficient! With induction cooking, your cookware is heated by a magnetic field inside of the cooktop. Therefore the cooktop will self-adjust to the size of the cookware being used, and you are not heating the air around you. There is no open flame or exposed heating element to burn people or surrounding items, making this ideal for young and old. It is lightweight (6 lbs), plugs into any standard household outlet, and has an easy to use LCD touch screen.” Add in a 8.5 inch skillet, a stainless steel saucepan, an oven safe meat thermometer, instructions, and a canvas tote bag to carry it all, and you’ve got a tiny kitchen on-the-go.

This kit was curated and provided for our “Library of Things” program by ReSource Ipswich (a division of the Town of Ipswich Utilities Department).
