Adjusting the Oven Thermostat
When cooking
a food for the first
time in your new
oven,
use time given on recipes
as a guide.
Oven
thermostats,
over a period
of years,
may "drift" from
the
factory
setting
and
the
differences
in timing
between
an old and a new oven of 5 to 10 degrees
are not unusual.
Your oven has been set correctly
at
the factory and is more likely to be accurate
than the
oven which it replaced
We do not recommend
the use of inexpensive
ther-
mometers,
such as those found in the grocery store,
to check
the temperature
setting
of your new oven_
These thermometers
can vary by 20-40
degrees
If you
think
the oven
should
be hotter
or cooler,
you can adjust
it yourself.
To decide
how much to
change
the temperature,
set the oven
temperature
25°E
higher
or lower
than
the temperature
in your
recipe, then bake The results of this "test" should give
you an idea of how much the thermostat
should
be
changed.
