OPERATING yOUR BREvILLE COMPACT & EASy™
• In a microwave the heat is produced
INSIDE the food. In all other conventional
cooking methods, heat is applied from
OUTSIDE through transference of heat
by convection or radiation.
• Microwave energy penetrates the food
to a depth of about 25mm. Small foods
under 5cm in diameter such as eggs are
penetrated to the centre from all sides.
In larger foods, energy creates heat in
the outer layer; this then moves to the
centre by conduction, as it does with
conventional cooking.
