When to use this table
Use this table when you need to quickly convert between oven temperatures. This could be because you have a recipe in a different temperature than your oven, or when you travel and need to use an oven that is in a different temperature range to the one you use at home.
For example, you arrive at a gite in France to discover a gas oven using gas mark ranges, but all your go to recipes are in Celsius.
Oven Temperature Conversion Rules of Thumb
If the table above doesn’t provide you with the conversion you need there are a few simple rules you can follow to convert quickly.
- From Fahrenheit to Celsius = Divide the Fahrenheit number by 2 to get an approximate Celsius value
- From Celsius to Fan = Take 20 away from the Celsius value to get the Fan value
- From Fahrenheit to Gas Mark = You start at 275 for gas mark 1 and then for every 25 degrees you increase you go up a gas mark.
