You're Invited: Makers Market Returns to KAM Appliances – May 3rd!

<img alt="" src="https://cdn.avbportal.com/magento-media/KAM-Appliances/January_white_sale.jpg" />
January is here, and that means it&rsquo;s time for one of the best-kept secrets of the new year: White Sales! This beloved retail tradition dates back to 1878, when department stores first offered discounts on all-white linens to brighten up homes after the holiday season. Over the years, White Sales have expanded to include bedding, towels, linens, and even laundry appliances, making it the perfect opportunity to refresh your home while saving big.
WHY SHOP WHITE SALES IN JANUARY?
White Sales were originally introduced to help shoppers afford luxurious, fresh linens during a time when resources were scarce, and winter felt long. Today, they&rsquo;re a staple of the retail calendar, offering savings that are hard to resist. Whether you&rsquo;re looking for cozy sheets, fluffy towels, or even an upgrade to your laundry routine, January&rsquo;s White Sales are here to help you start the year.
Here are just a few of the top White Sale deals to check out this January:

This brings us to an important question:&nbsp;powder detergent or liquid detergent?
&nbsp; 
POWDER VS. LIQUID: WHICH DETERGENT IS BETTER?
Choosing between powder and liquid detergent can feel overwhelming, especially when you&rsquo;re trying to care for new, high-quality linens. Here&rsquo;s a breakdown to help you decide:
Powder Detergent
<ul type="disc">
<li>Pros:</li>
<ul type="circle">
<li>Typically, more affordable than liquid detergent.</li>
<li>Highly effective for removing tough stains like dirt and clay, making it a great choice for outdoor or heavy-duty laundry.</li>
<li>Longer shelf life, which is ideal if you like to stock up during sales.</li>
</ul>
<li>Cons:</li>
<ul type="circle">
<li>Doesn&rsquo;t always dissolve completely in cold water, potentially leaving residue on clothes or linens.</li>
<li>Less convenient to measure compared to liquid detergent.</li>
</ul>
</ul>
Liquid Detergent
<ul type="disc">
<li>Pros:</li>
<ul type="circle">
<li>Dissolves easily in all water temperatures, ensuring a thorough clean without residue.</li>
<li>Excellent for pre-treating stains directly on fabrics.</li>
<li>Comes in a variety of scents and formulas tailored to different fabric needs.</li>
</ul>
<li>Cons:</li>
<ul type="circle">
<li>Generally, more expensive than powder detergent.</li>
<li>Shorter shelf life and bulkier to store.</li>
</ul>
</ul>
Which Should You Choose?
The answer depends on your laundry needs:
<ul type="disc">
<li>If you&rsquo;re washing heavy-duty items or using hot water,&nbsp;powder detergent&nbsp;might be your best bet.</li>
<li>For delicate fabrics, cold water washes, or pre-treating stains,&nbsp;liquid detergent&nbsp;could be the way to go.</li>
</ul>

Freshen Up This January: The Detergent Debate & White Sale Deals

Choosing the right washing machine is no small task. With so many options on the market, deciding between a front load washer and a top load washer can feel overwhelming. At KAM, we&rsquo;ve seen firsthand how front load washers have revolutionized laundry routines, offering unmatched performance and convenience. Let&rsquo;s dive into why front load washers are the ultimate choice for your home.
<img alt="" src="https://cdn.avbportal.com/magento-media/KAM-Appliances/BP4A0026kam.jpeg" />
1. Next-Level Cleaning Performance: Front load washers excel at delivering a deep, thorough clean. Their gravity-assisted tumbling action and horizontal drum design ensure that clothes are lifted, tumbled, and immersed in water for optimal stain removal. Whether you&rsquo;re tackling tough dirt on kids&rsquo; clothes or refreshing delicate fabrics, front load washers consistently outshine their top load counterparts. Check out models like the <a href="https://www.kamappliances.com/search/Electrolux%20Front%20Load%20Washer%20with%20SmartBoost&reg;%20Technology" target="_blank">Electrolux Front Load Washer with SmartBoost&reg; Technology</a> for unmatched cleaning power.
2. Energy Efficiency That Saves You More: In today&rsquo;s eco-conscious world, energy efficiency matters. Front load washers use significantly less water and detergent, lowering your utility bills while being kinder to the planet. Plus, their high-speed spin cycles extract more water from clothes, reducing drying time. Brands like <a href="https://www.kamappliances.com/search/LG%20Front%20load" target="_blank">LG</a> and <a href="https://www.kamappliances.com/search/Samsung%20Front%20load" target="_blank">Samsung</a> offer front load models designed to maximize efficiency without compromising performance.
3. Gentle Care for Your Favorite Fabrics: Say goodbye to worn-out clothes caused by harsh agitators. The gentle tumbling motion of front load washers minimizes wear and tear, making them perfect for delicates like silk, wool, or lace. Your wardrobe will thank you for the extended lifespan. For those who prioritize fabric care, consider the <a href="https://www.kamappliances.com/search/Bosch%20500%20Series%20Front%20Load%20Washer" target="_blank">Bosch 500 Series Front Load Washer</a>, known for its precision washing cycles.
4. Bigger Loads, Better Results: Have a large family or a pile of laundry that never seems to shrink? Front load washers often feature larger drum capacities, letting you wash more clothes in one go. This not only saves time but also reduces energy usage. The spacious interiors of models like the <a href="https://www.kamappliances.com/product/ge-48-cu-ft-smart-front-load-washer-gfw550-1178211" target="_blank">GE UltraFresh Vent System Washer</a> ensure every garment comes out spotless.
5. A Space-Saving Marvel: Front load washers are designed to fit seamlessly into any space. Their stackable feature means you can pair them with a matching dryer, maximizing vertical space in your laundry area. This is ideal for compact spaces like apartments or condos. Our <a href="https://www.kamappliances.com/search/Whirlpool%20Front%20Load%20Washer" target="_blank">Whirlpool Front Load Washer</a> and <a href="https://www.kamappliances.com/product/whirlpool-radiant-silver-front-load-laundry-pair-wh-lau-wfw5720rr-wgd5720rr-1661767" target="_blank">Dryer Set</a> is a customer favorite for creating a sleek and functional laundry nook.

The Superiority of Front Load Washers: Why They Outshine Top Load Washers

<img src="https://cdn.avbportal.com/magento-media/KAM-Appliances/Steam_Oven_Blog.jpg" alt="" />
Cooking is an ancient art that has evolved through the ages, with countless techniques and tools enhancing our culinary experience. Among these innovations, steam cooking has emerged as a powerful method that unlocks incredible taste, nutritional value, and convenience. In this blog, we will delve into the benefits of cooking with steam and why it has become a popular choice for discerning chefs and health-conscious individuals alike.
Nutritional Superiority Steam cooking preserves the natural integrity of food, ensuring the retention of essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Unlike other traditional cooking methods, steaming eliminates the need for excessive oil, which can add unnecessary calories and saturated fats. By gently cooking food in steam, you preserve its natural flavors while maintaining its nutritional value.
Flavorful Delicacies One of the greatest advantages of steam cooking is its ability to lock in moisture, making dishes tender, succulent, and full of flavor. Unlike conventional boiling or frying, which can often result in dry or overcooked meals, steam cooking maintains the moisture level. This technique is particularly suitable for delicate foods like fish, seafood, and vegetables, showcasing their inherent taste without excessive seasoning. The result? A harmonious blend of natural flavors that will tantalize your taste buds.
Health and Wellness Health-conscious individuals are steadily gravitating toward steam cooking due to its ability to promote well-being. The absence of unhealthy fats and oils often found in conventional cooking methods significantly reduces the intake of cholesterol and unhealthy additives. Steam cooking also requires less salt, as the steam naturally accentuates the natural taste of ingredients. Consequently, a steam-cooked meal not only bursts with flavor but also contributes to maintaining a balanced diet.
Time Efficiency Cooking with steam is not only beneficial for your health but also saves you precious time in the kitchen. By generating steam quickly and evenly, steam cookers reduce preheating times, letting you start cooking much faster. Moreover, steam helps distribute heat equally throughout the food, resulting in quicker cooking times without compromising the dish's quality. Time is of the essence in today's busy world, and steam cooking empowers you to create nutritious, delicious meals in a fraction of the time.
Versatility and Sustainability Steam cooking is a versatile technique that can be adapted to a variety of dishes. From cooking grains and rice to baking bread and desserts, a steam oven or steamer offers limitless possibilities. Steam also eliminates the need for excessive water usage, making it an eco-friendly option for those who prioritize sustainability in their culinary practices.
KAM COMMENT:&nbsp;Embracing the power of steam cooking is a transformative step toward healthier, more flavorful meals. By preserving nutrients, enhancing taste, and saving both time and resources, steam cooking has earned its well-deserved place in modern kitchens. So, why not embark on this delicious revolution and unlock the true potential of your culinary creations? Whether you are a seasoned chef or a novice in the kitchen, steam cooking will undoubtedly elevate your cooking game to new heights.

Can I mix appliance brands in my kitchen? Short answer: Yes, when it makes sense.
If you&rsquo;re designing a new kitchen or upgrading your kitchen appliances, you might wonder: Should I stick to one brand or mix and match? The truth is today&rsquo;s kitchen trends are all about&nbsp;personalized design, performance, and flexibility and mixing appliance brands can be a smart move when done thoughtfully.
At KAM Appliances, we help homeowners and kitchen designers find the right balance between&nbsp;function, budget, and style, even if that means blending multiple top appliance brands.
When Mixing Brands Makes Sense
Many appliance brands shine in specific categories. For example:
<ul>
<li><a href="https://www.subzero-wolf.com/sub-zero">Sub-Zero&nbsp;</a>is world-renowned for luxury&nbsp;refrigeration</li>
<li><a href="https://www.subzero-wolf.com/wolf">Wolf&nbsp;</a>dominates in professional-style&nbsp;cooking appliances</li>
<li><a href="https://www.subzero-wolf.com/cove/dishwashers">Cove&nbsp;</a>offers ultra-quiet, high-performance&nbsp;dishwashers</li>
</ul>
These brands are designed to work together, but that doesn&rsquo;t mean every kitchen needs to follow a single-brand rule. If you&rsquo;re passionate about cooking but want to save on refrigeration, combining brands allows you to&nbsp;prioritize what matters most.
Add Personality and Style to Your Kitchen

Guide to Mixing Kitchen Appliance Brands

<img alt="&ldquo;FlexDrawer&rdquo;" src="https://cdn.avbportal.com/magento-media/KAM-Appliances/Miele_drawers_900x500.jpg" style="float: left; margin: 5px 10px 0px 0px; padding: 0px 15px 0px 0px;" />
Discover the world of refrigerator flex drawers! Let&rsquo;s explore the innovative features and benefits of these versatile storage compartments that are revolutionizing the way we organize our refrigerators. Whether you're a culinary enthusiast, a busy parent, or someone who simply loves keeping their groceries fresh and accessible, flex drawers are a game-changer. Here&rsquo;s a breakdown of the different settings and how to maximize their benefits.


VEGETABLES Optimal Temperature: 32-38&deg;F (0-3&deg;C) Vegetables are best kept in a humid environment to prevent them from drying out. The "Vegetables" setting maintains a higher humidity level, which is perfect for leafy greens, broccoli, carrots, and other fresh produce. This setting helps preserve the crispness and nutritional value of your veggies, ensuring they stay fresh until you're ready to use them.
Tips:
<ul style="padding-left: 30px;">
<li style="padding-left: 30px;">Store vegetables in their original packaging or in perforated plastic bags to maintain humidity.</li>
<li style="padding-left: 30px;">Avoid mixing fruits and vegetables in the same compartment, as some fruits emit ethylene gas which can cause vegetables to spoil faster.</li>
</ul>

FRUITS Optimal Temperature: 32-38&deg;F (0-3&deg;C) Fruits need a slightly different environment compared to vegetables. The "Fruits" setting also maintains a cool temperature but with slightly less humidity. This setting is ideal for keeping apples, berries, citrus fruits, and other fruits fresh and juicy.
 Tips:
<ul style="padding-left: 30px;">
<li style="padding-left: 30px;">Keep fruits in their original packaging or loosely in the drawer to allow air circulation.</li>
<li style="padding-left: 30px;">Monitor ripening fruits closely and remove overripe ones to prevent spoilage of others.</li>
</ul>

BEVERAGES Optimal Temperature: 33-37&deg;F (1-3&deg;C) For those who love their drinks perfectly chilled, the "Beverages" setting is a game-changer. This setting maintains a consistent, cold temperature that's ideal for sodas, juices, and other beverages, ensuring they are always refreshing and ready to serve.
Tips: 
<ul style="padding-left: 30px;">
<li style="padding-left: 30px;">Use this setting for both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages.&nbsp;</li>
<li style="padding-left: 30px;">Consider storing water bottles, sports drinks, and other frequently consumed items for easy access.</li>
</ul>

MEATS Optimal Temperature: 28-32&deg;F (-2-0&deg;C) Raw meats require a colder environment to stay fresh and safe for consumption. The "Meats" setting keeps the drawer at just above freezing, which slows bacterial growth and extends the shelf life of your meat products. This setting is perfect for storing steaks, chicken, fish, and other raw proteins.
Tips: 
<ul style="padding-left: 30px;">
<li style="padding-left: 30px;">Keep meats in their original packaging or tightly sealed in plastic wrap or containers to prevent cross-contamination.</li>
<li style="padding-left: 30px;">Use a dedicated section of the drawer to avoid contact with other food items.</li>
</ul>

SOFT FREEZE Optimal Temperature: 23-28&deg;F (-5 to -2&deg;C) The "Soft Freeze" setting is ideal for items that you want to keep frozen but still easy to slice or serve, such as ice cream, bacon, or bread. This setting keeps the temperature just below freezing, allowing these items to stay firm without becoming rock-hard.
Tips: 
<ul style="padding-left: 30px;">
<li style="padding-left: 30px;">Perfect for storing foods that you plan to use within a few days.</li>
<li style="padding-left: 30px;">Ideal for preserving the texture of delicate items like pastries or pre-cooked meals.</li>
</ul>

To Maximize Your Flex Drawer&rsquo;s Efficiency
<ul>
<ul>
<li>Regular Cleaning: Keep the drawer clean to prevent odor buildup and cross-contamination. Wipe it down regularly with a mild detergent.</li>
<li>Organize Smartly: Group similar items together and use clear containers to easily see what's inside.</li>
<li>Adjust Settings as Needed: Depending on your shopping habits and seasonal changes, you may need to adjust the settings. For instance, you might use the "Vegetables" setting more during summer when fresh produce is abundant.</li>
</ul>
</ul>

KAM COMMENTS:
The flex drawer is more than just an extra compartment in your refrigerator. By understanding and utilizing the different settings, you can extend the freshness of your groceries, reduce food waste, and enjoy the flavors of perfectly stored foods. Embrace the full potential of your refrigerator's flex drawer and transform the way you store and enjoy your food.

Unlock the Full Potential of Your Flex Drawer

Congratulations on your new oven!
Whether you're a seasoned chef or a kitchen novice, having a new oven opens up a world of culinary possibilities. But before you dive into your baking or roasting endeavors, it's essential to ensure your oven is properly set up and ready for use. Follow these simple steps to prepare your new oven for cooking perfection:
<ol>
<li>Read the Manual Before anything else, take some time to read the user manual that came with your oven. It might not be the most exciting read, but it contains essential information about your oven's features, safety precautions, and initial setup instructions. Understanding how your oven works will help you make the most of its capabilities while keeping yourself and your kitchen safe. </li>
<li>Clean the Interior Even though your oven is brand new, it's a good idea to give the interior a quick clean before using it for the first time. Make sure all packaging has been removed from the oven cavity and racks. Use a mild detergent and warm water to wipe down the oven walls, racks, and any other accessible surfaces. This removes any manufacturing residues or dust that might have accumulated during storage or shipping. </li>
<li>Preheat and Test Preheating your oven is a crucial step to ensure accurate cooking temperatures. Set your oven to the manufacturer's recommended preheating temperature (usually around 350&deg;F or 175&deg;C) and let it run empty for about 15-20 minutes. This allows any initial odors or residues from manufacturing to burn off. Keep the kitchen well-ventilated during this process. </li>
<li>Check Calibration After preheating, use an oven thermometer to check the accuracy of the temperature settings. Place the thermometer in the center of the oven and compare the reading to the set temperature. If there's a significant discrepancy, you may need to calibrate your oven according to the instructions in the manual or consult a professional technician. </li>
<li>Test Run Before you start cooking your favorite recipes, do a test run with something simple like a batch of cookies or a sheet of frozen pizza. This allows you to get a feel for how your new oven performs and ensures everything is working correctly. Pay attention to cooking times and temperatures to make any necessary adjustments for future use. </li>
<li>Explore Features Take some time to explore the different features and cooking modes your oven offers. From convection baking to broiling and self-cleaning functions, understanding how to use these features effectively can elevate your cooking experience and expand your culinary repertoire. </li>
<li>Safety First Finally, always prioritize safety when using your oven. Familiarize yourself with safety features such as automatic shut-off mechanisms and child locks if applicable. Remember to use oven mitts or potholders when handling hot dishes, and never leave your oven unattended while in use.</li>
</ol>

In the realm of culinary artistry, the tools of the trade are as essential as the ingredients themselves. One of the fundamental debates among chefs and cooking enthusiasts revolves around the choice between open and sealed gas burner ranges. Each has its merits and drawbacks, influencing cooking techniques, efficiency, and overall kitchen experience. Let's take a look at the intricacies of open versus sealed gas burner ranges.&nbsp;
Understanding Open Gas Burner Ranges:&nbsp; Open gas burner ranges feature exposed flames that directly heat the cookware. This design allows for quick and intense heat distribution, making them popular with professional chefs and home cooks who value precision and control. The open flame provides visual cues, aiding in temperature adjustments and enhancing the cooking experience. Additionally, open burners often offer higher BTU (British Thermal Unit) outputs, ideal for tasks like searing and stir-frying.&nbsp;
Advantages of Open Gas Burners:&nbsp; 
<ul>
<li>Precision Cooking: The direct flame allows for precise control over heat levels, crucial for delicate cooking techniques.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Quick Heating: Open burners heat up rapidly, reducing cooking time and increasing efficiency in the kitchen.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Visual Cue: The visible flame offers immediate feedback, assisting cooks in adjusting temperatures on the fly.&nbsp;</li>
<li>High BTU Output: With higher BTU ratings, open burners excel in tasks requiring intense heat, such as searing and boiling.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
Disadvantages of Open Gas Burners: &nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Cleanup: Spills and splatters can lead to more extensive cleanup efforts due to the exposed burner design.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Safety Concerns: The open flame poses a potential safety hazard, especially in households with children or pets.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Heat Loss: Since the flames are exposed, some heat dissipates into the surrounding environment, potentially impacting energy efficiency.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
Exploring Sealed Gas Burner Ranges:&nbsp; Sealed gas burner ranges feature burners housed beneath a continuous grate, offering a different cooking experience compared to their open counterparts. These ranges are known for their sleek appearance and ease of cleaning, making them a popular choice for modern kitchens.&nbsp;
Advantages of Sealed Gas Burner Ranges:&nbsp;
<ul>
<li>Easy Cleanup: The sealed design prevents spills from reaching the burner components, simplifying maintenance.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Aesthetics: Sealed burner ranges often boast a sleek, streamlined appearance, contributing to the overall aesthetic of the kitchen.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Heat Retention: The sealed design helps retain heat, potentially improving energy efficiency and cooking performance.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
Challenges of Sealed Gas Burner Ranges:&nbsp; 
<ul>
<li>Limited Heat Control: Some cooks may find it challenging to achieve precise heat adjustments due to the sealed design.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Slower Heating: Sealed burners may take longer to heat up compared to open burners, affecting cooking times for certain dishes.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Maintenance: While easier to clean overall, the sealed design may require occasional disassembly for thorough cleaning of burner components.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>

KAM COMMENTS
The debate between open and sealed gas burner ranges ultimately boils down to personal preference, cooking style, and kitchen priorities. While open burners offer precision and rapid heating, sealed burners excel in ease of maintenance and safety.
