The cake is finished ifdough no longer sticks to the stick.▯ Baked items using yeast come out best whenusing the convection mode.▯ Raising dough (proofing):‒ Set the dough proofing mode. The basictemperature setting is 100° F (38°C).‒ Set 100 - 104° F (38-40°C) for large volumes(e.g. bread). This will ensure that the doughrises evenly from the center to the edge.‒ You can enter 104 - 113° F (40-45°C) for smallitems (such as Schneckennudeln (Swabiantwirls) or bread rolls).Baked items Shelf levelwith 4 levels(with 5 levels)ConvectionTemperaturein °F (°C)EconomyTemperaturein °F (°C)Convection +bottom heatTemperaturein °F (°C)Top +bottomheatTemperaturein °F (°C)Bakingtimein min.Swiss roll 2 (3) 410 (210) 7 - 9Cake base 2 (3) 330 - 345(165 - 175)30 - 35Fruit cake on a yeast batter 2 (3) 330 (165) 330 - 345(165 - 175)40 - 45Fruit cake on a shortcake base 2 (3) 330 (165) 330 (165) 330 (165) 330 - 345(165 - 175)40 - 45Small puff pastry items 2 / 1+3*(3 / 2+4*)355 (180) 355 (180) 375 (190) 15 - 20Cheesecake (high) 2 (3) 330 (165) 330 (165) 330 (165) 330 - 340(165 - 170)90 - 100Open-cheese sandwiches (flat) 2 (3) 330 (165) 330 (165) 330 (165) 330 - 345(165 - 175)45 - 50Sponge cake (round) 2 (3) 320 - 340(160 - 170)320 - 345(160 - 175)340 - 345(170 - 175)50 - 60Cakes 2 (3) 320 - 340(160 - 170)320 - 345(160 - 175)340 - 345(170 - 175)50 - 60Yeast cake (high) 1 (2) 320 - 345(160 - 175)330 - 345(165 - 175)40 - 50Cookies 2 / 1+3*(3 / 2+4*)320 - 345(160 - 175)320 - 345(160 - 175)330 - 340(165 - 170)15 - 20* In the Economy and convection operating modes, you can bake on several levels at the same time.** Pre-heat the appliance to the specified temperature.
