Heating and standing times

When reheating food for the first time, it is helpful to make a note of the time taken – for future reference.

Always make sure that the reheated food is piping hot throughout.

Allow food to stand for a short time after reheating - to let the temperature even out.

The recommended standing time after reheating is 2-4 minutes, unless another time is recommended in the chart.

Take particular care when heating liquids and baby food. See also the chapter with the safety precautions.

REHEATING LIQUIDS

Always allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds after the oven has been switched off to allow the temperature to even out. Stir during heating, if necessary, and ALWAYS stir after heating. To prevent eruptive boiling and possible scalding, you should put a spoon or glass stick into the beverages and stir before, during and after heating.

REHEATING BABY FOOD

BABY FOOD: Empty into a deep ceramic plate. Cover with plastic lid. Stir well after reheating!

Let stand for 2-3 minutes before serving. Stir again and check the temperature.

Recommended serving temperature: between 30-40 °C.

BABY MILK: Pour milk into a sterilised glass bottle. Reheat uncovered. Never heat a baby’s bottle with teat on, as the bottle may explode if overheated. Shake well before standing time and again before serving ! Always carefully check the temperature of baby milk or food before giving it to the baby. Recommended serving temperature: ca. 37 °C.

REMARK: Baby food particularly needs to be checked carefully before serving to prevent burns.

Use the power levels and times in the next table as a guide lines for reheating.
