A gas cooktop may include: a gas burner; a sensor configured to sense temperature of a cooking container heated by the gas burner; a valve configured to control flow rate of gas from a gas source to the gas burner; and a control system including circuitry. The control system may start operation of the gas burner; receive sensor signals from the sensor indicating the temperature of the cooking container; and based on received sensor signals representing the sensed temperature of the cooking container and a cooking profile indicating one or more durations and one or more temperatures, control the valve to change the gas flow rate to the gas burner.

Temperature sensing and smart gas cooking

A control system for a cooking appliance having gas burners is configured to control a speed of one or more cooling fans of the appliance based on information sensed about a position and/or motion of a knob associated with one of the gas burners. The information about the knob position and/or motion may be determined by a rotary monitor and/or any other suitable sensor. In some examples, the control system is further configured to control a gas valve coupled to the burner based on the sensed information about the knob.
