Tips on baking

Only use dark baking tins with a matt finish.

Bright, shiny tins give an uneven or pale result, and in some cases the cakes might not cook properly.

Place tins centrally on the rack on shelf level 1 or 2.

Older recipes and cookery books

New guidelines (German standard DIN 44547 has been replaced by European standard EN 60350) have led to slight adjustments in oven temperature settings.

The recipes in the cookery book supplied with your oven include these new adjusted temperatures for cooking with Conventional heat.

However, if using an older recipe or cookbook, set the oven temperature for Conventional 10° C lower than that recommended.

The cooking duration does not need to be changed.

Refer to the baking chart and the cookery book supplied with this oven for suggestions of temperatures, shelf levels and times.

Place cakes in rectangular tins with the longer side across the width of the oven for optimum heat distribution and even results.

When baking cakes with fresh fruit toppings and tall sponge cakes place the tin in the grill pan to catch any spillages and keep the oven cleaner.

When baking anything with a high salt content (such as pretzels), they must be placed on baking parchment. High concentrations of salt can damage PerfectClean surfaces.

H 4170, H4270 specifications

Miele is renowned for its commitment to quality and innovation in the realm of home appliances, and their built-in ovens, particularly the H4270 and H4170 models, are testament to this ethos. Both ovens showcase Miele’s signature design and cutting-edge technology, aimed at enhancing the cooking experience while ensuring durability and efficiency.

The Miele H4270 is designed for those who appreciate spacious interiors and advanced cooking features. With a generous capacity of 76 liters, it allows for larger meal preparations, making it ideal for families or entertaining guests. This model boasts a variety of cooking methods, including conventional heat, fan-forced cooking, grill, and a unique combination mode that optimally utilizes both heat sources for perfect results.

On the other hand, the Miele H4170 focuses on versatility and user-friendly interfacing. This model retains a substantial capacity but with slightly fewer specialized features compared to the H4270. It is, however, equipped with Miele’s innovative Moisture Plus function. This feature introduces steam into the cooking environment, which is particularly beneficial for baking and roasting, providing moisture retention for dishes while achieving golden-brown finishes.

Both ovens incorporate Miele’s advanced PerfectClean finish, which makes cleaning effortless. This non-stick surface prevents stubborn food residue build-up, allowing the interiors to remain pristine with minimal effort.

Innovative cooking technology is a hallmark of Miele ovens, with both models featuring Miele’s Convection Technology for an even heat distribution. This technology ensures that the food is cooked uniformly, irrespective of the oven's position. Additionally, the intuitive Control Panel with clear display aids in seamless navigation through various cooking programs and settings.

Moreover, safety features such as automatic shut-off, residual heat indicators, and cool-touch fronts come standard, prioritizing user safety while maintaining performance.

In conclusion, both the Miele H4270 and H4170 refrigerators stand out in the market for their quality, technology, and features. While the H4270 leans towards larger capacity and advanced modes, the H4170 provides an exceptional baking experience with its steam function, making both excellent choices for home chefs looking for reliable and sophisticated cooking appliances.
