I figure C is like F for cooking, correct me if I'm wrong. Everything is a multiple of 5, you'll never see bake at 372F or something odd. If C is the same way

I figure C is like F for cooking, correct me if I'm wrong. Everything is a multiple of 5, you'll never see bake at 372F or something odd. If C is the same way, that's probably pretty restricting.
- Symbiote 3y agoEvery recipe I've seen has the oven temperature as a multiple of 20°C. Ovens aren't accurate enough for measuring 5°C, let alone 2.5°C. (Ignoring badly-translated American recipes which call for 179°C and 454.5g of potatoes.) For air temperature, my behaviour wouldn't change at all if someone told me it is 18±0.25°C rather than the normal 18±0.5°C. We could round to the nearest 2° and it would be fine.
- pjc50 3y agoGet a cheap IR thermometer. For both ovens and rooms, you can use it to see that the temperature varies by up to a few degrees C from top to bottom. > badly-translated American recipes which call for 179°C and 454.5g of potatoes This drives me up the wall .. but a lot of UK goods are sold in "metric-numbered imperial sizes". At the weekend I bought 450g (half lb) of meat and a 6.3mm (1/4") router bit.
