Embodiments of a heating appliance with control features such as knobs can provide tactile feedback to the user during knob operation. Tactile feedback through the knob, e.g., during rotation in one or more directions, can improve control precision. Beneficial control accuracy features, such as can be utilized during appliance operation and setting of parameters of the heating appliance. A user's desired setting, such as various cooking modes or an off position can therefore be input into the heating appliance with tactile control aspects. A user's desired setting can therefore be accurately set, including with the benefit of tactile control aspects.

A cooking system for cooking food includes a housing defining a hollow chamber configured to receive a food container. The housing has an upper portion defining an opening to said hollow chamber. A lid is movable relative to said housing. The lid contacts the housing in a closed position about the upper portion of the housing to close the opening to the hollow chamber. At least one heating element is associated with at least one of said housing and said lid. The cooking system is operable in a plurality of cooking modes including a pressure cooking mode and a convective cooking mode. In said pressure cooking mode, the cooking system is operable as a pressure cooker and in said convective cooking mode, the cooking system is operable as a convection cooker.

Nutritional substance systems and methods are disclosed enabling the tracking and communication of changes in nutritional, organoleptic, and aesthetic values of nutritional substances, and further enabling the adaptive storage and adaptive conditioning of nutritional substances.

A connected oven, including a set of in-cavity sensors and a processor configured to automatically identify foodstuff within the cooking cavity, based on the sensor measurements; and automatically operate the heating element based on the foodstuff identity.

An apparatus including a housing; a plurality of prongs connected to the housing so that the prongs are movable with respect to the housing; and a device for holding a food; and wherein the plurality of prongs are configured to be moved from a position outside of the food to a position where the plurality of prongs are inserted into the food; and wherein the plurality of prongs are configured to insert a substance into the food. The substance may be a seasoning. The apparatus may include a device for cleaning the plurality of prongs through a vacuum process and/or a blower process; wherein the device has an input configured to connect to one of the plurality of prongs. The apparatus may include a cook food platform; a sandwich platform; a hot beverage platform; and a cold beverage platform.

A stacked oven may include a supporter installed between a first oven at a lower portion of the first oven and a second oven above the first oven and fixing the second oven at a position spaced apart upward from the first oven. The supporter may include a first installation member that includes a vertical extending member that contacts a side surface of the first oven, a lateral extending member that extends from an upper portion of the vertical extending member in a direction toward a center of the first oven, and a load support provided between a lower portion of the lateral extending member and the first oven; a second installation member that includes a lower surface support and a side surface support that contact a lower surface and a side surface of the second oven, respectively, and having an angle with respect to each other, and a guide that extends upward and outward from an upper end of the side surface support; and a connection member that vertically connects the lateral extending member and the lower surface support.

The present disclosure relates to a cooking appliance. The cooking appliance includes a housing having an open upper surface and an open front surface, a door swiveling around the rear side and opening and closing the upper surface and the front surface, and a gasket part being disposed between the door and the housing and sealing a gap between the door and the housing.

The present disclosure relates to a co′oking appliance. The cooking appliance includes an exhaust inducing part being disposed on at least any one of both lateral surfaces of a housing and creating a flow of air from the front of a cooking space to the rear surface of the housing, and a door provided with an air exhaust opening that forms a passage for discharging air in the door out of the door.

A cooking appliance includes an exhaust inducing part creating at least one of a flow of air from a lateral surface of the housing to the other lateral surface of the housing and a flow of air to a rear surface of the housing from the front of the cooking space, while being disposed on the lateral surface of the housing.

An induction heating cooker includes a housing, an inner pot including a bottom part that includes a first area and a second area, and an inner pot storage part disposed in the housing. The inner pot storage stores the inner pot in a manner that the inner pot can be set or removed. Also, a first heating coil is below the inner pot storage part, arranged in a position facing the first area of the inner pot, that heats the inner pot by induction. Also, a second heating coil is below the inner pot storage part, arranged in a position facing the second area of the inner pot, that heats the inner pot by induction. A driving unit in the housing supplies high frequency currents to the first heating coil and the second heating coil, and a controller controls the driving unit.
