Disclosed are devices and systems for inductive heating of a liquid or food, which comprise versatile inductive heating cartridges. To be able to use a normally inductively non-heatable cup or vessel made of a generally dielectric material with an induction heating unit, a removable cartridge made of an inductively heatable material is inserted into the vessel. In one embodiment, the cartridge is retained in the vessel by an attachment functionality which prevents the cartridge from sliding or flipping when the cup or vessel is tipped to serve or pour. The attachment functionality is disengageable, and the cartridge may be transferred from cup to cup or vessel to vessel by the user. In another embodiment, the cartridges are configured to more efficiently work with the "pot detection" circuits of modern inductive hot plates or ranges. In another embodiment, the cartridge includes an RFID tag, antenna, and sensor package.
