Yes, count me in with these new-fangled Schott products (besides the filter and
lens Schott glass items that I have). I have a Thermador hybrid stovetop.
Hybrid because two elements are infrared (glowing red surrounded by all that
black) and three elements are induction. And they are 'cool' but they generate
all that heat in the cooking vessel
Interesting because Thermador is an old line American company now owned by the
Germans (BSH -- Bosch und Siemens Hausgeräte GMBH). And the cooktop is made
in Spain. At least the venting system is made by Thermador here.
Yes, and it cost more than my first (and second) Porsche.

double convection oven. It all cost more than my first Porsche!!

Then today I remembered seeing it on the top of our new stove. The
cook top is one of these radiant heat systems that appears black unless
a
heating element is on. At the back there is the note:
Schott
Ceran
Must be pretty tough stuff and probably has a very low
coefficient of
thermal expansion, it doesn't seem to break from heat or cold. In
any case I would assume it's the same company, and there is a much
larger
market for range tops than lens blanks.
