Have you tried using steel adapter plates to use the aluminium cookware on induction? The only thing I miss is not being able to use a Moka pot (there are induction versions, but they are usually 4+ servings - I find the single serving versions produce better coffee).

Here in Europe induction is everywhere, so maybe finding good cookware is easier than the US. Last year I got a 8cm (3") pot for boiling milk and beans from the supermarket for €15 that works perfectly on induction.



I use a plate adapter from Bialetti to do Moka pot on my induction range, it was a bit pricey at 20€ but it looks good and does the job.

I also ended up buying the Bialetti induction Moka but for a place that turned out to actually have the evil Ceran electric top… still worked obviously. It’s expensive but AFAICT the only one that’s induction friendly and also has the standard Bialetti interior shape, which I find much easier to clean. Also it’s gorgeous.

However, I do get a pretty serious caffeine high off the larger dose.


I haven't, just because I have the gas. If I had to cook entirely on induction, I'd have to get comfortable with them.
