COMBI (Convection Baking with Steaming)
Combi baking / steaming is used for baking, roasting, or braising when steam needs to be added to the oven during a convection baking operation. The 'Steam Factor' can be varied by repeat pressing of the Combi key — see Steam Factor in the table below. It is recommended that you preheat the oven.
Automatic Combi baking / steaming can be set up so the buzzer sounds when the Cooking Time has elapsed or when the product's internal temperature has reached the Probe Temperature set point. If using the Probe Temperature, insert the probe near the center of the product. Cooking Time is not used when the Probe Temperature is in use.
Usually, the Cooking Time and Oven Temperature are used to control the Combi baking / steaming process. Alternatively, the Probe Temperature can be used to indicate when cooking is done. When
using the Probe Temperature, either the Oven Temperature or can be used to control the oven.
