Myth or Truth: Leaving the gas valve half closed reduces consumption? 

The news is circulating on social media that leaving the cooking gas valve half closed reduces consumption, find out now in the article whether it is myth or truth and take advantage of tips on how to effectively save your cooking gas.

Initially we can already reveal that it is fake, experts explain that the maneuver can compromise safety, give a false sense of economy and also cause waste of gas, as the consumer may not be able to use all the contents of the cylinder.

The most effective way to save in this case is to reduce the flame knob on the stove, this will bring savings. Heat is a form of energy, in that way. It is produced by burning gas. In other words, the more gas that burns, the more heat the flame generates. So if you have a low heat, you burn less gas and from then on you are already saving. But check out a few more:

1. Choose stainless steel pans to save gas.

Always use stainless steel pans instead of clay pans, as metal is an excellent conductor of heat, meaning you use less gas.

2. Keep pans clean

Glossy surfaces reflect heat, so keep the outer surfaces of your cookware shiny, i.e. very clean, for better heating and less gas burning.

3. Use pressure cookers

Pressure cookers are excellent gas savers as you can use the medium to low temperature for a much shorter period of time and cook food much faster.

4. The color of the flame is also important

Always make sure that the color of the flame is blue, because if you have yellow flames, it indicates that the gas combustion process is wrong. In other words, if this happens, it is a sign that you need to call a technician for repairs.

5. Control the fire level

When your mixture reaches the boiling point, lower the flame to keep it boiling, this way you save a lot of gas.
