M Chef; How It Works; Gourmet Units; Intensity - Miele DO 7860 Operating And Installation Instructions

How it works

M Chef technology uses electro-
magnetic waves to heat the food.
The Dialog oven combines two different
cooking methods:
- M Chef heats the entirety of the food
using electro-magnetic waves.
- Conventional heating elements are
also used to cook the food and
brown it from the outside.
Antennae in the roof of the oven release
electro-magnetic waves and measure
how much energy penetrates the food
at short intervals. The energy
penetration rate depends on the type of
food. Electro-magnetic waves penetrate
cakes, for example, more efficiently
than fatty food or frozen food.

Gourmet Units

Gourmet Units are the units that
indicate how much energy has
penetrated the food during cooking.
The Dialog oven regularly measures how
much energy has penetrated the food and
adapts the amount of energy yet to be
released accordingly. The number of
Gourmet Units able to penetrate the food
depends, for example, on the weight and
type of food being cooked.
The M Chef functions use a combination
of M Chef technology and conventional
heat. There are two different procedures
for setting a cooking process:
- In addition to the temperature, you
also have to set the number of
Gourmet Units. This energy is then
directed into the food until the
number set has been used.
The more Gourmet Units you set, the
more energy the food receives.
- You do not set any Gourmet Units,
just the temperature. Gourmet Units
are automatically added to the food.
This stops in the following instances:
– A maximum value of 2000
Gourmet Units has been reached.
– You interrupt the addition of
Gourmet Units by selecting
– You end the cooking programme.

Intensity

The intensity determines how quickly
energy will penetrate the food in the
form of Gourmet Units.
-
Strong
For most food, e.g. bread, flaky
pastry, casseroles, terrines, roast
meat and fish. Depending on the
food, an average of 11 Gourmet Units
penetrate the food per minute, with a
maximum of 13 Gourmet Units per
minute.
-
Medium
For heavy creamed mixtures (e.g.
chocolate cake and almond cake),
tray bakes, rolls, pizza and meat.
Depending on the food, an average
of 9 Gourmet Units penetrate the
food per minute.
- Gentle
For delicate food, e.g. cheese cake,
crème caramel and soufflés.
Depending on the food, an average
of 3 Gourmet Units penetrate the
food per minute.
These settings will vary depending on
the food and should only be taken as
a guide.
Useful tip: Recipes for M Chef functions
and Automatic programmes can be found
in the Dialog oven cookbook.
