Make a perfect meal with this knob!!

A start-up called Meld has recently developed a knob that replaces your current stove knob, and regulates the temperature of the cooking food by automatically turning itself. The knob gains information about the temperature of the food being cooked, from the Meld Clip, (a Bluetooth thermometer which clips on the side of the pot and extends down to the food). The whole thing is controlled by a smartphone app. The app allows you to choose from a long list of predefined recipes or to create your own recipes and cook times. This is a particularly great invention for individuals as me, who normally would burn the food or leave it undercooked. It would also allow me to multitask while cooking; something that I would usually avoid doing, due to my lack of skill in the cooking field. The price of the Meld Knob and Clip, plus the app, is about $129 US, which is certainly not bad, considering how much a smart stove top, carrying out the exact same function, would put you back.

    This is a great technology to use. It will allow me to cook my favourite recipe the same way all the time, However, I noticed the meld clip is clipped on to the pot while cooking. Can the pot be covered while the clip is on? if not then more gas or electricity will be consumed. Secondly, it is a downloadable app to use via my smart phone. what will happen if my phone runs dead while cooking or restarts during cooking. Contrary, I believe it is a great technology to use.
