Rommelsbacher CTS 2000/IN – Intelligent Precision Cooking for Modern Kitchens

In a world where kitchen space is often limited and efficiency is paramount, the Rommelsbacher CTS 2000/IN sets a new standard for what a compact cooking appliance can offer. This single-zone induction cooktop is designed for those who value performance, precision, and clean aesthetics — all wrapped in an ultra-slim format that fits into virtually any space. 

Whether you're a home chef perfecting your sous-vide technique or someone simply seeking a reliable extra cooking zone, this induction plate is engineered to make everyday cooking smarter and easier.

What truly sets the CTS 2000/IN apart is the way it seamlessly integrates intelligent features with thoughtful design. 

Rommelsbacher, a brand known for quality German engineering, has crafted a product that combines advanced cooking technology with user-friendly controls, all while maintaining a minimalist, modern look.

Intelligent Cooking, Redefined

Traditional hotplates often lack precision, relying on outdated thermostats and producing inconsistent heat. The CTS 2000/IN solves this problem with sensor-based temperature control that directly monitors the heat at the base of the pan. 

This technology allows the cooktop to make constant micro-adjustments, maintaining a stable temperature and preventing common cooking mishaps like scorching, overcooking, or rapid boiling over.

This level of control is particularly beneficial when working with delicate or complex recipes. Thanks to its six programmable cooking modes, you can cook at the ideal temperature without needing to stand watch over the stove:

• Yogurt Mode holds gentle temperatures perfect for culturing dairy products.
• Sous Vide offers precise, low-temperature water bath cooking for meats and vegetables.
• Slow Cook ensures your stews and braises develop rich, deep flavors over time.
• Boil, Bake, and Fry settings cover everyday tasks with flexibility and ease.

Each of these modes can be individually adjusted to meet specific cooking needs, offering a truly customizable experience.

Touch-Controlled Simplicity with Professional-Grade Power

Despite its compact footprint, the CTS 2000/IN is powerful and responsive. It features 10 adjustable power levels, allowing for everything from a gentle simmer to a rapid boil, with a boost function to accelerate heat-up times when needed. 

Whether you're boiling pasta water or keeping a sauce warm, you’re always in full control.

The touch-sensitive LED control panel provides instant feedback and effortless navigation. Its intuitive layout means that anyone — from cooking novices to seasoned pros — can use it with confidence. There are no knobs or mechanical parts, which not only simplifies operation but also enhances durability and cleanliness.

Its frameless, full-glass ceramic surface not only contributes to its elegant design but also makes it exceptionally easy to clean. 

Spills and food residue wipe away in seconds without getting caught in corners or seams. This smooth surface, combined with the low height (only 4.1 cm), makes the unit blend seamlessly into any contemporary kitchen.

Quiet, Safe, and Energy-Efficient

The CTS 2000/IN is as safe as it is smart. It features a range of protective elements that give users peace of mind, particularly in households with children or shared living spaces. Key safety components include:

• Pan detection system that activates heat only when a suitable pot is in place
• Residual heat indicator that alerts you if the surface is still hot
• Automatic shut-off in case of inactivity or overheating
• Child safety lock that prevents unintentional operation

Moreover, Rommelsbacher has equipped the unit with a quiet yet effective cooling system, which ensures the cooktop remains at optimal operating temperature without disrupting your kitchen environment. 

The fan operates discreetly, and its continued operation post-cooking prevents any heat buildup internally.

In terms of energy use, induction technology already outperforms gas and traditional electric cooktops, and the CTS 2000/IN takes this efficiency even further. With up to 90% energy transfer efficiency, it heats cookware directly via electromagnetic fields, reducing wasted heat and saving both time and energy. 

You can expect up to 50% energy savings and up to 60% faster cooking times, making this unit not just an upgrade in performance but a wise choice for the environmentally and financially conscious.

Versatile and Space-Saving

With its compact form factor, the CTS 2000/IN is perfect for:

• Studio apartments
• Student dorms
• RVs and caravans
• Outdoor kitchens
• Secondary cooking zones in larger homes

It's also highly portable, making it ideal for use in vacation homes, guest houses, or offices. You can store it away with ease when not in use, or keep it as a permanent fixture on your countertop without sacrificing valuable kitchen space.

The cooktop accommodates pans between 14.5 cm and 26 cm in diameter, giving you flexibility in your choice of cookware. 

All you need to ensure compatibility is to check that your pots have a ferromagnetic (induction-ready) base — a simple test with a kitchen magnet will tell you everything you need to know.

Conclusion:

With its advanced technology, sleek design, and unmatched energy efficiency, the Rommelsbacher CTS 2000/IN is a smart investment for anyone looking to elevate their cooking experience while saving time and energy. Whether you’re a professional chef or a home cook, this induction cooktop brings precision, safety, and style to your kitchen.
