Possible sources of cheap kitchen appliances (we need an oven & hob)

Fridge

We already have a fridge.

Oven

Something good, with a big glass door. We want to see the yummy stuff as it cooks. Bread, crumbles, flapjacks, pizzas, all recipes to be well documented in the wiki.

A bad oven can seriously impede caek baek, and can waste a lot of heat.

Double or single ?

  • I'd suggest single, because as far as I can tell you just end up with two small ovens that you can't fit anything big into. But it depends whether we're getting a freestanding one, I guess. Any more thoughts?

We won this EOU 5330 W electrolux oven & EHP 6602 K hob, not as shiny as the Neff hob but better than it looks in that picture and only a fiver so we can chuck it out when we find something better.

Hob

We won this for £20 in an auction, which is a decent hob. We need to determine whether it should be used instead of the cooker hob.

Model T1722 W0
Surface Black Ceran glass-ceramic
Dimensions 575mm (width) x 505mm (depth)
Control Touch with residual heat indicators

Electronic boil start control

Back left 0.75/2.2kWh - 12/21cm (dual)
Back right 1.2kWh - 14.5cm
Front left 1.2kWh - 14.5cm
Front right 2.0kWh - 18cm

Counters

We're currently thinking of just a counter to turn the kitchen into a C shape. We could then add something like Noisebridge's mosaic.

Glasses

The auction also got us over 200 beer and other glasses. I propose we put 50 or so in the space and put the rest on sale to members & visitors at 50p each. If this is successful it will pay for the cookers ! It may be possible to etch them with the laser.

Better ideas are welcome.

FYI, there are approximately 48 Pedigree, 15 John Smith, 22 Adnam, 12 Abbot, 11 1744, 25 1664, 24 London Pride, 25 Fosters, 2 Becks, 4 Coke, 20 plain tulip, 14 plain conical, 4 plain tulip half pint.
