Set Temperature
Since Atollspeed is very well insulated, temperature cannot change very quickly. So setting a
different temperature than the preheat temperature has rather small impact on the baking result.
It is much more effective to change the air speed.
However, if you want to bake a very sensitive product it might still be useful to reduce the
Temperature a bit, or if you want to make something especially crispy increase the temperature
during the baking program.
Set Air Speed
Air speed has a big influence on the baking result, especially on the browning of the surface.
If your product is very sensitive, you can reduce air speed for more evenness. Also very dense
products like lasagne or pies need longer time for the microwave to heat the centre. Accordingly,
the air speed has to be reduced so the surface does not get too dark.
Microwave Intensity
Microwave can be reduced or turned off with the slider. Sometimes it can improve product quality
if microwave power is reduced.
For defrosting or products with very low water content, like toast, microwave power should also
be reduced to 0%. Otherwise there might be a negative effect on the lifetime of the microwave
generator.
Never operate the microwave empty.
Preheat- / Reheat Timer
On the top right of the screen is a yellow/red progress bar, indicating the preheat timer.
Any baking tray from stone, ceramics or metal has a heat capacity to brown the bottom of the
product. But it
takes some time to ‘charge’ this heat. So when the baking chamber reaches its
preset temperature the tray might still need a few minutes to reach full temperature. This is
indicated by the preheat timer. You can adjust the Preheat timer in user settings according to
your needs. If you bake sensitive products and see that right after the oven is turned on the
baking result is not good, you can set the timer to 10 minutes for example so you have an
indication when you can start baking with consistent quality.
The preheat time starts to count when Preheat temperature is reached after turning on. When the
preheat time is finished the alarm sound rings to remind you that the oven is ready for baking.
Also after baking the tray lost some heat, so after the food is taken out it is best to close the door
for a moment to reheat the tray. To have an indication here you can set the Reheat timer. Reheat
timer starts to count when the door was closed after baking.
