on the dial will drop, and take time to correct when
the door is subsequently closed. Please note, the
temperature gauge should only be used as a guide to
the oven temperature.
Your ESSE Bakeheart comes supplied with a wire
shelf, which can be placed on the steel runner pins in
the oven. The wire shelf has a retaining device, to
reduce the risk of them pulling free of the cooker
accidently. To remove the shelf, pull forward as far
as they come, them lift the front of the shelf up at an
angle, and slowly pull free from the shelf runners.
The design and position of the hotplate is carefully
considered to give graduated areas of heat. The
centre of the hotplate is positioned directly above
the firebox, so will be the hottest area, and is perfect
for boiling, whilst the outer areas are ideal for
simmering.
To maintain hotplate cooking temperatures, the
Bolster Lid should be closed when the hotplate is not
in use.
The Firebox
(Bakeheart only)
To fully enjoy the unique flavours of wood fired
cooking, your ESSE Bakeheart allows for cooking
directly over wood embers, providing classic chargrill
lines on the supplied wire shelf.
The Firebox Cooking Shelf can be positioned into the
firebox after lighting. Once the fire has died down to
glowing embers, using the supplied Glove, carefully
slide the Firebox Cooking Shelf into position along
the steel pin runners, located on the side bricks.
The fire door should always be closed, whilst cooking in the firebox.
