    somehow i can't see this tiny thing replacing my electric oven or my stove …

    • Yeah I would like to know how it works too.

      Imagine this… remove your oven, remove your stove… place this appliance in the place of the oven, then squint your eyes and hey presto! It looks just like… a small appliance that doesn't look like it will replace your oven or stove!

    • +8

      Yeah, but just imagine the space you'll save by throwing out that yoghurt maker!

      Don't rush to judgement on this. I bought a Micasa bench top fan forced air cooker (it's basically a twenty litre glass tub with fan forced air element sitting on top) and after it sat in the cupboard for months we finally tried it about two months ago to do a roast joint/vegetables. It worked so well we've not used the oven since! It's way quicker and cleaner than our Miele wall oven and uses much less energy. But here's the best part. It cost $10 (that's ten dollars) from DealsDirect :-) !!

      • Yeah, I got mine from Aldi, on clearance. $15, and does indeed do a roast better (or at least easier, faster and cheaper) than the oven. At its most useful when you're roasting something huge (like a turkey), and have no room to roast the veggies. Don't know if I'd compare a glass convection oven to a $80 Kogan breadmaker-cum-everything.

          "Don't know if I'd compare a glass convection oven to a $80 Kogan breadmaker-cum-everything."

          I certainly don't want a breadmaker that does that either …

          @Willy Orwontee: There's a dinner with a happy ending.

        • really, i use it but find it doesn't crisp up the potatoes, and chicken. Cooks uneven. Plus cooking on the metal rows, mean oil falls to the bottom and u need to clean up after every cook.

          How do you use it, and find it?

        • I see where you're cuming from …..:-)

          Cook joint for three quarters of an hour (say 2 kilos of whatever) high heat then add veg (tossed in olive oil in a bag) at high heat for another three quarters of an hour. The veg does crisp on outside. As for cleaning, you have to clean no matter what appliance you use and its way easier to clean a big glass tub than the inside of an oven. Of course if you've got a pyrolitic oven that may be the answer, but at what energy cost :-(

        • @mokr:
          Put baking paper at the bottom next time. Then u just need to wash the rack and throw away the baking paper

        20L is slightly bigger than 1.5L. how are you going to fit a chicken in to 1.5L?

      • +1

        Yeah, got the same one. Was very impressed with how well it can roast chicken, and without mess. Best $10 I ever spent.

      • I* got one too. Highly recommend. Suddenly I can cook plus I will never clean the oven again.

      I suppose you can still make a pizza inside… Calzone folded 4 times :-)

  • Interesting, and does it cook like pressure cooker ? ta

    My mother uses her Philips Airfryer all the time instead of the oven and that's a small appliance. She hardly uses the oven any more. But then this Kogan appliance would be nothing like a Philips Airfryer.

  • +3

    1.5L! What is this a cooker for ants!?

    • Yes that's tiny. Even the Philips Airfryer XL does 3.0L.

  • I can see someone putting a pizza in this instead of the oven…

  • I don't know about roasting but this should be useful for things like stews and soups. Throw the ingredients in and set and forget. I've got an Asian brand of something similar and it's quite useful and convenient. Doesn't replace your oven though.

  • The yoghurt recipe in their manual makes no sense at all:

    Milk 3.2% x 1L
    Yogurt without additives x 500ml
    COOKING INSTRUCTIONS:
    - Pour milk and yogurt into the multicooker bowl
    - Press the MENU button, setting to the 'Yogurt' mode for 20 minutes, at the default temperature of 80℃. Press Start.
    - Once done, keep refrigerated for 8 hours to let thicken.

    This will just kill the yoghurt strain and you'll end up with a litre of cold milk. Hope the other recipes are better than this.

    • You're right. It would only make sense if the milk by itself was heated to 80 degrees, allowed to cool to around 40 degrees, then add yogurt or culture, keep at 40 degrees for several hours, then plonk in the fridge.

      • Yes, fortunately the machine is actually capable of doing this i.e. first use the reheat cycle (30 mins at 80 degrees) then after it has cooled to 45 or so add the milk and culture and use the yoghurt cycle ( 8 hours at 40 degrees). It's just the recipe that is wrong.
        This thing could save time as I find heating the milk to be the most time consuming and error prone part of making yoghurt. I do it in my rice cooker, but sometimes forget to turn it off before it boils over.

          • add the culture or yoghurt I should have said…
  • Yogurt + milk = yogurt?

    • Yes. Bacteria in yoghurt ferment milk into more yoghurt, assuming the conditions (temperature) is right.
