Rating of the best roasters for 2020

Is it possible to believe that the new oven is capable of replacing several different household appliances? Sure! If we are talking about a unit called a roster. A kitchen appliance will aid in food preparation and perform several other tasks. And it will take up very little space in space.

The editorial staff of the site "bestx.htgetrid.com/en/" offers you an overview of the best roasters for 2020.

What is a roster?

A modern invention in the form of a mini oven for cooking is called a roaster. The multifunctional unit operates from the mains and is able to cope with tasks such as:

• Roasting and grilling;
• Bakery products;
• Making toast for breakfast;
• Reheating prepared food;
• Defrosting food.

The mini-oven, thanks to its abilities, received the original name "Roster". The word was formed from the English verb "to roast".

Description of the roster

The roaster design in the classic version is a mini oven with a door. The inner chamber of the cabinet is made of stainless steel or bioceramic, which indicates the durability of the structure. Some roasters are covered with enamel inside.

The main elements of the compact oven are:

• Heating elements for heating food;
• Grids for trays, fixed to the oven rails;
• Thermostat, time corrector and mode switch.

Additional equipment includes:

• Grill spit;
• Chicken stand;
• A set of baking trays of different shapes and purposes;
• Trays for liquid and crumbs;
• Fan.

Manufacturers of household appliances are pleased with the variety of external forms of roasters. The body of a mini-oven is in the form

• Pyramids;
• Cone;
• Cylinder;
• Parallelepiped.

Whatever design is chosen by the buyer, the main thing is that the roster fulfills its main purposes.

Functional characteristics of the roster

The device can be equipped with built-in automatic programs to facilitate the cooking process. Depending on the model, functionality includes:

• Convection mode designed for preheating the dough and then baking baked goods;
• The number of heating elements, which in the roaster can be from 2 to 4. The presence of a switch for heating elements will help to select a specific cooking mode. When the top heating element is operating, the grill will turn on. If only the lower heating element works, then the food is cooked in a gentle mode. The roaster, which acts as an oven, works with all heating elements on;
• The temperature switching function simplifies the process of working with a household appliance. Since different dishes and products require an individual cooking mode.
• The roaster is also intended for defrosting food. This mode works if there is a certain program embedded in the device.

How does a roaster differ from a microwave oven?

Logically correct question. Indeed, in many ways, these two devices have similar functions: heating, defrosting and grilling. And even the devices look almost identical. However, there are also fundamentally different features:

1. The waves propagated by the microwave oven effectively affect the upper fibers of the product. Thus, complete heating of food is achieved only after some time. The principle of roasting is based on uniform heating of the dish. This condition allows you not only to fry meat or fish, but also to fully bake a pie.
2. The possibilities of using the roster are much wider than you might imagine. Depending on the configuration, the device can cook any type of pastries and dishes according to different recipes. Some roasters are equipped with a removable top, which allows you to even grill a barbecue.
3. The cooking process itself in these two devices also takes place differently. In a microwave oven, food placed in a dish is warmed up on a special plate rotating around its axis. In the mini oven, food placed in baking trays or special dishes is put on the grates. Food is stationary during cooking.

Considering the difference between the microwave oven and the roaster, you can not be mistaken with the choice, and not regret buying later.

What roasters are there?

All roasters are divided into the following types of devices for individual purposes:

1. Roaster for roasting coffee.

Industrial units designed specifically for roasting coffee beans. They are used in catering establishments, as well as in factories where coffee is produced. Green beans are roasted in different ways to help you get a drink of any flavor:

• Conduction method, in which the grains touch the walls of the hot drum. This treatment helps to enhance the sweetish taste of the coffee;
• The convection method, in which green beans are roasted evenly with hot air. With this method, the coffee is tart with a sour taste;
• Treatment of coffee using radiation (heat treatment). The taste of the drink will be soft and rich.

Coffee roasting machines are of the following types:

• Drum;
• Convection;
• Mixed roasters.

2. Roaster for hot sandwiches.

Small functional unit designed for toasting hamburgers. The device comes with molds for making waffles and other sweet pastries.

3. Vertical or horizontal roasters.

The first type of roaster is intended for both barbecue and other dishes. The horizontal roaster is a more popular model used at home. Depending on the selected configuration, the electrical unit has the following purposes:

• For roasting meat;
• For frying fish;
• For baking.

Some mini ovens are equipped with additional hotplates on which you can fry or cook. This type of roster is usually suitable in the country, or in small apartments.

There is another type of roaster with a toast function. It is a horizontal unit with openings for slices of bread built into the upper part of the body.

The varieties of roasters can be seen in the photo under this text.

 

How to choose an electric roaster for your home?

In fact, there is nothing difficult in choosing a roster. Almost every housewife understands what is missing in the kitchen, and what the appliance of her dreams should be.

The selection should be based on the following criteria:

1. Device size.

A very important factor to pay attention to first. For a large family, a roaster with a volume of 15, 25 and 40 liters is suitable, which will allow you to prepare nutritious meals. If such a large amount of food is not required, then an apparatus with a volume of 5 - 6 liters is required.

2. Power.

This criterion depends on individual needs. In order to make breakfast sandwiches or fragrant waffles, roasters with a power of 0.7 - 0.9 kW are required. Such units are not suitable for full meals. If you make a low-power roster work to its maximum, then it quickly becomes unusable.Therefore, roasters with a capacity of 2500 - 3000 W should be purchased for roasting meat, baking and other culinary delights.

3. Coating of the inner chamber of the roaster.

As mentioned above, there are three types of coating for the inner chamber of the roaster:

• Stainless steel;
• Bioceramics;
• Enamel.

When choosing a device with an inner enamel coating, the surface should be carefully cleaned each time. Damage to the paint will affect the aesthetic properties of the mini oven. A more durable type of coating is bioceramic or stainless steel.

4. Temperature adjustment and time correction functions.

In order to reheat the finished dish, it will take 10-15 minutes at a temperature of 100-150 C⁰... Cooking baked goods or meat dishes will take from 30 to 120 minutes at a temperature of 180 - 250 С⁰... Therefore, when choosing a roaster, you should choose a model with regulation of these two functions.

What mistakes can be made when choosing?

When choosing a roster, you need to pay attention to certain types of functions, since many of them may not be needed.

• If there is no need for baking, then you should exclude the purchase of a device with a convection function. Such mini-ovens do not cost little money, and there will be no point in using them.
• The size and equipment of the roaster also matter. A spacious kitchen can accommodate a large electrical appliance with many additional features. As for a small room or a studio apartment, you should first think about where the device will stand. After that, make a decision regarding the size of the mini-oven.
• Many characteristics for the product describe the purpose of the device, and for what purposes it can be used. However, before buying, you should carefully consider the equipment of the device. Some roaster options do not include, for example, a skewer or various forms for dishes. Disappointment can come after the purchase. Therefore, before purchasing, you should carefully study the product, its characteristics and accessories for the device. Some optional accessories can be purchased separately.
• Before buying a roaster, you should request a quality certificate and inquire about the availability of a warranty card. The presence of these conditions will help to exclude the purchase of low-quality goods. And in the event of a breakdown of the device, you can ask for qualified help in the repair of household appliances in time.

A powerful and multifunctional roaster for the kitchen is more expensive than usual. And the availability of additional equipment will require extra costs.

You can get advice and recommendations on choosing and using a kitchen appliance from sellers of household appliances. In addition, on the Internet resources that sell rosters, you should read the reviews of previous buyers. An objective assessment and the opinion of users of roasters will help you figure out which device is better to buy for your home.
