Is there a way to use aluminium pans on an induction hob?

    The place we are moving to has an induction hob but some of our pans won't work on it because they're not magnetic. Most are quite new so I don't want to get rid of them. Is there any way I can use them? Is there an steel plate we can put under them or something?
    Sorry I'm a bit clueless on the subject.:confused:

    Don't think so .... If a magnet won't stick to the base, it won't work ..... I thought of getting a stainless steel plate to sit between cooker and pan, but it'd be a bit of a balls

    Are you 100% sure its induction?

    Some people wrongly think if they have a flat electric glass stove top its induction. Induction ones will not glow.
