Toaster ovens are perfect
for heating up small quantities of food and use much less energy
than a regular oven.
Microwave Ovens
By using your microwave you can save up to 50% of your cooking energy costs compared to using a regular oven. You will also dramatically decrease your cooking times.
Remember, microwaves cook
from the outside edge towards the center of the dish, so if
you're cooking more than one item, place larger and thicker items
on the outside.
Electric Kettles
Use an electric kettle to
heat water. It is more energy efficient than using the stovetop
or even a microwave.
If you are purchasing a new
kettle, choose one that has an auto shut-off and an insulated
handle.
Mineral buildup can impact
on the efficiency of your kettle. Regularly clean your kettle
with a mixture of boiling water and vinegar.
