By using broil.top you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, please do not use the site.

1. Content and licence

The text, engineering plates, measurement tables and page code are produced by the Iron Flux editors and protected by copyright. You may read, print and quote them for personal study, teaching or cooking, with a credit and a link. Republishing whole articles, bulk scraping, translated republication or use in commercial training material requires written permission first.

2. Kitchen safety and limitation of liability

A preheated cast-iron pan reaches well above 260 °C, and oil near its smoke point emits smoke and can ignite. The temperatures, timings and sequences published here are measurements taken on specific pans and specific burners and are informational; they are not a guarantee about your kitchen, your cooktop or your food. Check for yourself that the burner and extractor suit high-heat searing, that the handle is rated for the oven temperature you intend, that the fat you are using is food-grade, and that your pan carries no coating or trim that cannot take the heat. Iron Flux is not liable for damaged cookware, burns, fire or spoiled food resulting from use of this content.

3. Not medical or nutritional advice

Discussion of protein, fat, smoke points and browning products describes cooking chemistry only and is not medical or nutritional advice. Consult a qualified professional before changing your diet.

4. Limits of the measurements

Infrared readings shift with emissivity, distance and angle, typically within ±10 °C, and a domestic gas hob varies with line pressure and jet condition. The numbers here are therefore a reproducible starting point, not a facsimile. When your results differ, trust the stable reading and the sensory result on your own pan.

5. Third-party links and advertising

The site may link to outside resources and may display third-party advertising. Those sites' content, products and privacy practices are their operators' responsibility, and we do not endorse them.

6. Changes to these terms

When the terms change, the date at the top of this page changes with them. Continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the new version.

7. Governing law

These terms are interpreted under the law of the jurisdiction where the servers are hosted. Disputes should first be raised at [email protected].
