How do you adjust the temperature on a convection oven?

Are fan-forced ovens hotter?

In a fan-forced oven the hot air is blown towards and around the food, constantly blowing off the cooler air in contact with the food. Fan-forced ovens therefore cook faster. Cooking temperatures for fan-forced ovens are roughly 20C lower than those for conventional ovens but with the same cooking time.

What are the 3 types of oven?

5 Different Types of Ovens

  • Conventional Gas Ovens. Conventional ovens, which have been a central part of modern households since the 1950s, are by far the most common type.
  • Conventional Electric Ovens.
  • Convection Ovens.
  • Microwave Ovens.
  • Toaster Oven.

Why do convection ovens lower temperature?

A convection oven uses a fan to distribute the heat evenly throughout the oven, thus eliminating the oven’s temperature differentiation. The use of the fan does keep the interior of the oven drier than with a conventional oven. With most foods, especially meats, the drier environment is acceptable.
