There are several types of the burner materials to choose from, basis your requirement and sensibilities.
Brass is more expensive
as well as more durable
than aluminum due to factors like faster heat absorption,
uniform heat distribution and corrosion and grime resistance, making it an ideal choice for Indian style cooking.
Aluminum
burners, on the other hand, can heat up faster but don’t
retain that heat for long, making it easier for stoves to cool down faster. They
are also much cheaper as compared to brass burners due to their shorter life span
and lesser durability, making them work as a cheaper option, for families
who may need these benefits.
