DO dangerous fumes come from burning up an empty metal pan if the stove is accidentally left on maybe an hour?
Ok, I got back to my apartment really late one night and since I didn't have my kettle to make a cup of tea with I put some water in a small metal pan (not stainless steel but rougher..more like Teflon only not as soft feeling) to boil on high and sat in a chair and completely fell asleep. My roommate got back some time later....it could have been 45 minutes or longer maybe and found me and there was quite a bit of smoke and the pan which was normally black had burned through so badly that it is now blue and greyish white on the inside of the pan. There was even yellow and black stuff on the microwave over the stove. She told me when she woke me I was completely disoriented and acting strange and foggy kind of. My question is could I have been inhaling any kind of dangerous fumes or somethin?
If there was teflon or some other type of non stick coating on the pan, that can release dangerous chemicals when burned. If you feel any lasting effects you should see your doctor.

Gaggia Titanium Plus Espresso Machine
Gaggia has done it again by adding another impressive all-in-one coffee center to their already fabulous Titanium lineup. The Gaggia Titanium Plus Espresso Machine feature the E. Plus beverage system which allows users to adjust the strength of the brew with just a turn of a dial; coupled with the already popular Gaggia quality features that round out Titanium Plus, this machine is worth the upgrade.
Feature Filled
The features included on the Gaggia aren’t just pretty decorations. Each and every one are there to insure that each espresso or cup of coffee brewed is the best it can be.
The E Plus beverage system adjusts the coffee strength with a quick turn of the dial. Coffee drinkers can adjust the amount of coffee used to brew their beverage as well as the volume of the water dispensed. Beverage temperature can also be adjusted and saved into memory for quick recall.
The Gaggia Milk Island is another added feature that connects to one of the two steam boilers to produce perfectly frothed and steamed milk for making cappuccinos and lattes. Of course, there is always the manual frothing wand for those who like to froth their own milk.
The water reservoir holds a whopping 60 oz. of water; however, user reviews report that it will actually hold 80 oz. of water. In addition to being removable it also swivels to allow for ease in filling.
The Gaggia’s coffee bean hopper is air tight to keep coffee beans fresh longer. For occasions when decaf or a different coffee is desired, they included a by-pass hopper to make that easier too.
Cleaning is a major plus with the Gaggia Plus. The dreg drawer holds the coffee grinds until full then sends an alert when it needs emptied. The drip pan will also alert via a floatation device that rises to the top. The brew unit removes completely from the machine for ease in cleaning, making the Gaggia a hands-down winner in user reviews.
Beauty
Form and function should go hand in hand; at least that is what most architects believe. The creators of the Gaggia Titanium Plus obviously do too. The shining stainless steel and blue LCD lights create a striking appliance that any kitchen would be proud to host.
The cost of the Gaggia is at first glance high, however, when compared to the cost of driving to the coffee shop on a daily basis and purchasing an expensive cappuccino it pays for itself. Gaggia is dedicated to providing the best customer experience in coffee and espresso machine.
