An additional tray may be purchased from
your nearest Defy Spares Centre in which
case baking may be done on three trays
simultaneously.
EXAMPLE 2 Layer cakes
Do not use baking tins with elevated
bottoms. The cake tin bottom must touch
the baking tray. Both trays may be used
simultaneously. The recommended
positions of the trays are: Bottom and
second support from the top.
EXAMPLE 3 Larger Cakes, Bread,
Fruit Cakes, Date Loaves
These items should be baked on two trays.
The recommended positions of the trays are
Bottom and second support from the
top.
Cake tins
These should be placed at the front corner
of each baking tray and as near to the oven
door as possible.
It is recommended that half way through the
baking period, cake tins be turned front to
back ( through 180° ) to guarantee even
browning.
Loaf tins
These should be placed across the front of
the baking trays, equally spaced left to right
and as near to the oven door as possible. If
two or more loaves per tray are baked, place
the tins lengthwise on the trays and near to
the oven door.
It is recommended that half way through the
baking period, loaf tins be turned front to
back (through 180°) to guarantee even
browning.
A guide to Thermofan cooking
Thermofan ovens require a slightly different
technique from conventional ovens.
These notes enable the first time Thermofan
user to get the best results.
Oven temperatures
The airflow in a Thermofan oven allows
lowered temperatures to be used. This
results in roasts being more succulent and
baking having a better texture. At the same
time a small saving in electricity
consumption is made.
Baking times
Baking times in a Thermofan oven are the
same as for a Conventional oven.
Condensation
The Thermofan oven can bake up to three
times as much as a conventional oven and
therefore more moisture may be released
than usual. Evidence of condensation may
appear around the oven vents. This is
normal.
Use of baking trays
Thermofan ovens are supplied with two
baking trays.
Additional trays may be purchased from
your nearest Defy Spares Centre.
The position of the shelves will be
determined by the size of the items to be
baked. Ideally, unused trays and shelves
should be left in position to optimise the
airflow in the oven.
EXAMPLE 1 Biscuits, Sausage rolls,
Scones
These items do not require baking tins and
may be placed directly on the trays. For
bulk baking both trays may be used
simultaneously. The recommended
positions of the trays are: Bottom and
second support from the top.
