do you need to use special pots & pans ???

Yes, in the respect that the pans must be ferrous (magnet will stick to them). It comes with a heat transfer plate that allows the use of non-ferrous pans but you lose some of the temp in transfer. In my opinion, the Nuwave Pro is better. Mainly because of the ability to easily fine tune the temp.

No. Any regular cooking pan is fine. One thing I did learn that isn't in my review. It does use a lot of energy. I still really like it but am now using my crock pot for the things that take a long time to keep my energy bill smaller.

In my opinion you can use stainless, wood or silicone utensils with a SS pan. When using metal utensils try to avoid scratching the cooking surface however.

Hi. Yes, you will need a pot when combining the ingredients and boiling the wort. I believe I used a 12 qt soup pot with this kit.

Maybe I misunderstood your question. Yes the stoneware does get very hot and you will need to use a potholder.

Keep in mind you need water and a pot or pan to make these and some cooking time.

You can use these pans as you would any others. I use them for every method of cooking and absolutely love them.

They do with proglonged high heat so I use potholder/mitt. You can purchase protective heat proof slide on handle to place on handles & they work fine. Great pans regardless.

Yes you can. Each pot has its own off and on switch. I use one pot all the time. One of the best things I ever bought.

Short answer: Yep.Longer answer: Yep. Just keep the heat on medium-low, and wait for the pan to heat up.

I usually put a little bit of olive or coconut oil in the pan depending on the temp that it needs to get to and I have yet to burn anything. I also was a little aprehensive when I first used them, but just season the pan and you are good to go. Being that these pots and pans are encapsulated with aluminium they will heat up much faster than my non-stick pans. I just like the fact that one can go from stove to oven with them.

I think you can. I really like this pans, they are really good. Just make sure you use plastic or wooden spoons.

Yes you can, just added water and anything else you normally do - then bring the water to a boil. cook it as you would in any other pan ... just check it periodically and stir.

Yes, but probably best if it's a simmer method. You'd do this without the wood/ceramic steamer unit -- just use the pot and lid.
