Poaching
Mr.C recommends:
■ Caution
Always open the CONVOTHERM carefully.
The escaping steam can cause scalding!
■ Preheating
Preheat the CONVOTHERM for at least 10 – 15
minutes at a temperature of 20 – 30 °C above
the baking temperature before baking.
Wait until the fan wheel has come to a
standstill before loading the CONVOTHERM
with foodstuffs in order to avoid heat losses.
