The AGA of Today:
More than You Might Expect

For more than a century, the joy of an AGA has been rooted in a very particular way of cooking, the warmth it brings to the home and the way it invites people to gather.  Those pleasures remain.  What has changed is how easily they can now fit around the way we live today. 

 

Whereas once an AGA was on 24 hours a day, AGA cookers now offer much more flexibility, with ovens and hotplates that can be turned on and off independently. The engineering behind this is ingenious, but what it means is wonderfully simple: an AGA cooker can now move with the seasons.

In the depths of winter, you may want all the ovens on, filling the kitchen with warmth and cooking delicious comfort food. In the height of summer, you might choose to switch on just one oven to cook something lighter.

The days of having to turn the cooker off for the whole summer and rely on a compromise back-up cooker until autumn are a thing of the past. With a choice of AGA cookers designed for different kitchens, households and ways of life, you can enjoy everything people have always loved about an AGA, whenever and however it suits you.

You also have far more control over energy use, heating only the ovens and hotplates you need. Turning the hotplates off when they are not in use can reduce overall running costs by up to 50%.

An AGA can fit just as naturally in a tiny kitchen as it can in a huge one. It can be part of the everyday rhythm of life, whether you’re home all day, have an AGA in a holiday cottage or are out at work and are only home for supper and at the weekend.

What has changed is the freedom to choose an AGA cooker that suits the space you have, the way you cook and the lives we live now. What remains are the things that have always made an AGA distinctive.

Cast Iron Where it Matters

For all that has evolved, the essence of an AGA remains unchanged. These are authentic cast-iron cookers, not simply cookers with the look of cast iron. Inside, substantial cast-iron ovens absorb, retain and gently radiate heat from every surface, creating distinct environments for roasting, baking and slow cooking. It is a gentle, instinctive way of cooking which allows flavours to deepen, bringing out the best in ingredients as time does much of the work. It is this combination of material, construction and more than a century of refinement that gives AGA cooking its unmistakable character, loved by home cooks and professional chefs alike. Modern in the ways you want it to be, distinctively AGA where it matters.
