iChef is a oven with built-in brain
—The iChef is a stellar oven with a memorized cookbook. Gorenje, an European appliance maker, ships their oven model together with a computer brain that’s capable of fully automizing nearly every culinary task. And it’s all touch-controlled.
Basically, you estimate the type of food you’ve put in, and its weight, and the computer does the rest. But more complex things can be achieved as well. With MyBake, ProBake and StepBake modes, you can program up to three steps into the process. There’s defrosting, baking, holding warm, multi-stage tempratures, and saving of programs and recipes.
Shipping this spring in Europe, an oven with smarter programs than a microwave will be a thing to behold. Pricing and launch date to be revealed soon.
