Take the small one and save energy (if not frying). It doesnt take much longer and the pot uses the energy more efficiently Edit: nm dont do that if the water is not yet boiling

    It in fact takes 2-3 times longer to get the water boiling in the pot on the smaller one for me. Rather change out the gas container a bit more often. Though I'm planning to just remodel the kitchen to get rid of the gas now and go induction. The gas range is slightly newer, but the furniture is 40 years old so I'd rather go new and integrated.

    If the burner sticks out from under the pot that's a bunch of heat going not into the pot.

    Sure, but what's that got to do with this discussion, where no one mentioned doing that?

    Yeah my comment was random and while im thinking through it... i didnt take the waste heat at the pot surface area over the longer time into account so im also wrong But use the small one when the liquid is already cooking :)
