Are multi function ovens worth the money? Most definitely. There are so many different variations on the market, you can pick the exact one for your style of cooking: whether you’re a keen baker or love healthy cooking methods like steaming.
Fan bake. A fan symbol on its own, or with a horizontal line at top and bottom, means the fan, as well as both top and bottom elements will be on. Fan bake is good for most cooking, particularly when using more than one rack. It allows food to cook faster and at a lower temperature.
A conventional oven uses only bottom heat with no electric fan to bake food. Some conventional ovens include a grill, but no fan. A multifunction oven will have the ability for bottom heat, top and bottom heat, grill, fan, and possibly a multitude of functions.
Is a fan oven better than a conventional oven? Circulated air transfers heat faster than still air, making fan ovens more energy efficient. Not only will this reduce your carbon footprint, but it will also reduce the size of your bills as well.
The difference between a conventional or static setting and a fan-forced setting is: a conventional setting uses the heating elements in the top and base of your oven with no fan while a fan-forced setting uses the fan at the back of your oven plus the heating element around it.
Usually you need to reduce the oven temperature by 20c (about 50F) as the constant heat and force of the fan causes cakes to bake more quickly.
