For better results, use the core temperature sensor.

Core temperature sensor
chapter.
▯
Let meat rest 10 - 15 min. after cooking. This way,
the meat can "relax." The circulation of the meat
juice slows down and there is less loss of juice
when cutting into the meat. Large pieces of meat
such as roasts can rest in the oven. Smaller ones,
e.g. steaks, should rest outside the oven wrapped in
aluminum foil.
▯
For small portions (2 - 3 people) use a heat-
resistant pan so that the food does not burn or dry
out.
▯
Use the wire rack or the roasting dish for a large
roast and for types of preparation that generate a
lot of liquid for roasting.
▯
Marinate overnight and discard the marinade before
roasting or grilling, e.g. with the back of a knife or a
spoon. Otherwise the spices and herbs will burn.
▯
When the roast gets too dark and the crust is
burned in places, reduce the temperature the next
time and check the slide-in level.
▯
If the roast is cooked but the sauce is burned on,
next time use a smaller roasting dish and add more
liquid. If the sauce is too watery, next time use a
larger roasting dish and add less liquid.
