Bravoska Ovens

[kiwidave]

Just wondered if anyone has ever used a Bravoska or Romoska oven before.
I am looking to get one and would like to hear from anyone if one is better than the other.

Cheers

I have the Remoska oven, and I think it is good. No heard of the Bravoska. If you search on ukcs you will find many threads on this item, especially from Cas54 as she has most cooking gadgets.

Hi Dave

There's a bit of discussion on Romoska ovens HERE

[aggsandrog]

I posted this somewhere else yesterday, Dave:

I have just opted for a Remoska from Lakeland.... 'whatever an oven can do - a Rremoska can do better!', it says in the blurb. The standard size is rated on the handle as 470 watts, and I can confirm it roasts half a guinea fowl to perfection... Roger

Hi Dave.... Used the Remoska at home again tonight to roast a chicken breast. Tasted as though it had just been carved from a large bird; very nice. A word of caution however. The lid gets very hot and you have to turn it upside down to put it down; could be tricky in the van with working surface at a premium. The stand also gets hot, down to the bottom of the legs, and it may damage an unprotected grp surface.... Roger

I use mine in the van, the only thing I damaged first time I used it was my nylon carpet runner!!! from the lid. The legs never cause a problem in the van or at home, but I now ensure that I have a wooden bread/chopping board to hand for the lid. I ususally cook on top of the cooker, or if weather is nice outside. I have even used the floor between the benches used this space for my slow cooker as well, nice and safe cannot knock it over, plus my grandchildren cannot get hurt when they come into the van, as they usually place their hands either side ie cooker and sink for some reason (only known to kiddies) and swing!!!

I also have a Palson hot plate which will feed 6/8 ppl for breakfast, as I am not a BBQ person, this piece of kit will also allow you place a pan on it, this is used at home as well. This I store in the luton.

I did the same as Martinw, I fitted an extention socket in my outside locker which allows me to cook outside in our lovely weather, but if away for a week wiith the family Utilitiy tent is turned into my kitchen complete with food storage and I am one happy bunny. everything to hand and everything in place. We loved freshly made scones, lovely strawberry jam and devon cream - mmm heaven

Hi all,

What is a Bravoska Oven?

I try and read the last 25 post each day! But seem to have lost the thread of this one!

Is it one of those halogen cookers? I posed a question about when some one was asking about a microwave on a hook up?

I now feel I am mental and simple! A joke in our household a story behind it on the lines of the cow story! only to be told after a few rounds of drinks! Because otherwise it isn't funny!

Hi Ellie,

Check out this site for the Bravoska oven :
www.bravoska.co.uk/store/product_info.php?cPath=267&products_id=313
They are not a halogen but a multi oven, you can use it as a slow cooker, you can bake in it, roast in it, anything that you do in your standard oven at home, these little beasts are meant to be able to do.

By the way, Bilbo is now fully replaced onto his new base, new curtains and cushions and even a new mascot. I am taking him out for the first time this weekend so I am hoping to get a few pics to post.

Cheers
Dave

As a postscript I was having a bit of bovver fitting my Remoska (with its long handle) into a cupboard with the other electrical items. I recalled an idea of Graham's (I think it was) to use a velcro strap to travel with the kettle on the stove top. Net gain: a kettle-sized space in a cupboard.

I therefore travel with the Ramoska on the stove, held safe in my case by a mini-bungee I made from suitable elasticated cord and a couple of diy galvanised wire hooks.

Thanks Graham . And thanks Lunnie; I have cut a chopping board to fit in the sink cover, which serves other purposes of course.
