Cooking with an Aga is a pleasure, the hotplates maintain a constant temperature, one for boiling and one for simmering. Another great feature is the humidity control of the ovens so food can be kept warmer for longer without drying out or being soggy. The Aga works on a 80-20 principle where 20 percent of cooking takes place on the hotplates and 80 percent happens in the ovens.
As an Aga has dense and thermally efficient insulation fuel is used sparingly and the right amount of heat is released into the room just to give a comfortable ambient temperature.
