You may feel that your new oven cooks
differently than the oven it replaced. We
recommend that you use your new oven a few
weeks to become more familiar with it,
following the times given in your recipes as a
guide.
If you think your new oven is too hot (burning
foods)
or not hot enough (foods are
undercooked) you can adjust the temperature
yourself. The appearance and texture of foods
is a better indicator of oven accuracy than an
inexpensive thermometer, such as those found
in grocery stores, to check the temperature
setting of your new oven. These thermometers
can vary by 20-40 degrees. In addition, the
oven door must be opened to read these
thermometers. Opening the door will change
the temperature of the oven.
To decide how much to change the
temperature, set the oven temperature 25
degrees higher (if foods are undercooked) or
25 degrees lower (if foods are burning) than
the temperature in your recipe, then bake. The
results of this "test" should give you an idea of
how much the temperature should be changed.
