conventional cooking
A conventional ovens have two heating elements static, both on the roof and floor of the oven or on the wall on both sides. conventional oven takes time to reach the temperature to cook them, so always remember to pre-heat. And after reaching the desired temperature, remember that a cavity in a conventional oven is hotter at the top than at the bottom because hot air rises.
Pro
Although this is the most basic form of oven, there are advantages. 'When a batch of cakes, conventional oven with roof and floor elements better than oven fan, "said Matt Hall of Clover High." If you bake three trays of biscuits, for example, the conventional oven eligible will give an even temperature in the rack, so it is not there will be a need to change the tray around to make sure all the biscuits cooked at the same time. "
You can, however, need to exchange the top tray to the bottom tray half way through the cooking process, because of the temperature difference between the top and bottom of the oven.

oven Fan
is not like a conventional oven, fan oven does not have a heating element in the sidewall or roof and the base. on the contrary, it is equipped with a fan, generally seen behind the wall with a hole in the back of the oven. "What you do not see," Matt said, 'is a circular heating element wrapped around the fan. What happens is that the fan draws air through the perforations, then pushed over the heating element and out through the channel around the side of the back wall.' this creates even heat throughout the oven cavity.
Pro
Fan oven heat faster than conventional ovens, saving time and energy. Moreover, fan oven allows you to cook sweet and savory food at the same time without mixing their flavors. "This is because the heating element to burn taste the air as they pass through it," said Matt.

"It will do the conventional and cooking enthusiasts, but often have many other functions as well," said Matt. '. In essence, it will have a fan in the back with a circular elements, conventional elements in the roof and bottom of the oven, and open grill element in the top of the cavity 'additional functions may be included under any heat - perfect for crispy pizza base and the pastry case -. or heat up just ideal for browning
' Another popular function is a fan of grilling, "continued Matt. 'It allows you to grill sausages, meat and fish without the need to change the food more, and also minimizes spurt, as you grill with the door closed. "
Pro

Tanks vary in size up to 1.5 liters, so the dimensions before you buy. The larger the tank, the less likely it will be that you have to recharge it while cooking.

Sizing up
A standard 60cm x 60cm oven will vary in capacity, so always check the dimensions. 'Make sure you know whether the capacity is measured as the volume of useable space dirty or clean, "suggests Matt. "You will find many manufacturers give the total volume, but this does not really give a true representation of what you can fit in."
The capacity range from around 50 liters to a maximum of 76 liters. Increasing the size of the cavity without increasing the external dimensions of the oven is made possible by advances in design and manufacturing. explains Neil Pooley of Miele 'insulation and heat management, plus a more efficient use of space behind the fascia panel, creating a space that can be taken by the cavity, Improved'.

Column and configuration of horizontal
Where space is at a premium, Clinton Patey in-toto Kitchens Bristol show format columns, where equipment stacked one above the other.
