Uses, Tables and Tips Baking Oven function: Conventional Baking tins For Conventional dark metal and non-stick tins are suitable. Oven levels Baking with Conventional 1 baking tray: e.g. oven level 3 is only possible on one level. 1 cake tin: e.g. oven level 1 3 General Instructions • Insert the tray with the bevel at the front. • With Conventional you can also bake with two tins next to one another on the oven shelf at the same time. This does not significantly increase the baking time.
2 How to use the Baking Tables The tables give the required temperature settings, baking times and oven shelf levels for a selection of typical dishes. • Temperatures and baking times are for guidance only, as these will depend on the consistency of the pastry, mixture or dough and the number and the type of baking tin. • We recommend using the lower temperature the first time and then if necessary, for example, if a deeper browning is required, or baking time is too long, selecting a higher temperature.
Type of baking Oven level Temperature ºC Time 3 170-190 0:30-0:40 Cakes/pastries/breads on baking trays Plaited bread/bread crown Christmas stollen 3 1) 160-180 1) 0:40-1:00 Bread (rye bread) first of all .......................................
Tips on baking Baking results Possible cause Remedy The cake is not browned enough at the bottom Wrong oven level Place cake lower in the oven The cake sinks (becomes soggy, lumpy, streaky) Oven temperature too high Use a slightly lower setting Baking time too short Set a longer baking time Baking times cannot be reduced by setting higher temperatures Too much liquid in the mixture Use less liquid Pay attention to mixing times, especially if using mixing machines Cake is too dry Oven temperature
Roasting Oven function: Conventional Roasting dishes • Any heat-resistant ovenware is suitable to use for roasting (please read the manufacturer's instructions). • Large roasting joints can be roasted directly in the roasting tray or on the oven shelf with the roasting tray placed below it. • For all lean meats, we recommend roasting these in a roasting tin with a lid. This will keep the meat more succulent.
