Core temperature control
The principle
The core temperature control function uses the core temperature inside the food to control the length
of the cooking process rather than the time.
The core temperature control function can be used with all main cooking programs.
Usage
Measuring the core temperature is particularly recommended for cooking slow roasts and when aiming
for a precise result (medium, rare etc.).
Advantages
You enjoy the following benefits:
ƒ You can cook with precision regardless of joint size or weight, guaranteeing perfect quality every
time.
ƒ There is no need to waste time and energy keeping an eye on the joint and checking the degree of
cooking.
ƒ The multipoint sensor takes measurements at several points along the sensor tip, and automatically
identifies the coolest core temperature it measures as the center of the joint of meat. The multipoint
sensor prevents false readings and makes it easier to use the sensor.
ƒ Combined with the cooking programs, you can achieve up to a 50% improvement in cooking.
Making optimum use of the cooking method
You should remember the following points:
ƒ
When setting the final core temperature, remember that slow roasts continue to cook inside after
they have been removed from the combi steamer.
ƒ At the end of cooking, you should remove the slow roast from the combi steamer immediately and
cool it rapidly. This prevents overcooking.
