My self cleaning oven keeps catching fire on the inside - what do I do?
Q. I just went to clean my self-cleaning oven and a huge fire caught in the inside of the oven. The door is locked, so I can't even open it to pour baking soda on it. I turned the oven off and the fire seems to have gone away, but I don't know what to do! Can I not clean my oven or something?

A. opening the door would have made the fire worse. it went away. clean gunk out first- don't let grease pile up. I assume it isn't a continuous clean- otherwise this wouldn't happen.

How does a built in oven work / fit into your units?
Q. I've bought a house where the oven was a free-standing oven fitting in between units. The vendors are taking the oven and I would like to get a built in oven and hob to go in the gap but how does a built in oven work? What does it stand on? The kitchen units etc are still available in Ikea so I can buy any extra bits I will need.
Asked by babysmallpo - Sat Oct 20 17:28:56 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. You need what is called a Built Under Housing unit. Thing is these are standard sizes because the ovens are standard sizes. The ovens are 600mm wide. Because the housing unit is a box it has sides, so the space where the oven goes needs to be a bit wider then 600mm, so that the housing unit can go in and the oven fit into that. Hope that clear. You will then nee to get work top to attach to the existing work top and fill in the space. Because hobs that go above built under ovens fit into worktops. This can be done, but not easy, and can't tell without seeing it. As long as there is enough width for the oven housing to fit then it will probably be better to get a whole new length of worktop to go right across if possible. Get a nice man… [cont.]

What is the difference in baking with microwave oven and a typical oven?
Q. Well, I am totally confused about baking stuff in ovens. The ones I usually see on TV and read on recipes about baking is that it should be put in the "OVEN" for about blahblahblah minutes. I don't know if it would be okay to use our microwave oven since we don't have the big oven at home. If it is possible, please give me the difference if I bake stuff in the microwave than just using the big oven. Thanks. :D

A. Baked goods (and cooked foods) will never be as good in a microwave. It cooks too fast, and intensively. You'll have harder areas (and gluey textures in baked potatoes). You need the air circulation all around it too, to insure even cooking/baking. Microwaves are intended to heat up and defrost foods, not do actual "cooking" in them

How can I tell if my oven is made of vitreous enamel?
Q. I need to clean my oven, it's a Hotpoint fan oven, about 10 years old. The oven cleaner packaging says, that if the oven is ' vitreous enamel ' ,then to only leave the cleaner on for 2 hours, otherwise it can be left on for 4 hours or even overnight. How can you tell if it is vitreous enamel ?

A. What you may have, depending on the model, is what is called a catalytic enamel. This is supposed to be self cleaning, hence the instruction to leave the cleaner on for a few hours.. try to find out which enamel it is. Ordinary enamel is glossy. Self cleaning is dull with a spotted texture finish, and feels coarse to the touch

When cleaning a gas oven, do you have to disconnect the gas?
Q. I'm going to be cleaning my apartment oven, but I've never actually cleaned an oven and feel a bit leery about reaching into it with a wet washcloth. So I'm wondering, if the whole oven and stove are turned off and thoroughly cool, there's nothing else I have to disconnect, is there? I won't cause some sort of explosion? I'm planning to just use dish soap and baking soda.

When a microwave oven has finished cooking, is the interior still dangerous for a time?
Q. When the alarm sounds and the internal light goes off, and you immediately open the door, will you be exposed to dangerous levels of microwaves if you put your head or body right up to the open oven? In other words, is the oven still dangerous after it's finished cooking, and if so for how long? So there's no dangerous levels of microwaves in the oven after the timer runs out. Wouldn't there be residual radiation. That's what I'm wondering about. Is the residual radiation dangerous.

How do you clean an oven that is not self cleaning without breathing the fumes?
Q. My oven is not self cleaning, so I bought some oven cleaner. All the warnings on it scare me though. How are you supposed to clean your oven if the stuff is toxic to breath?
Asked by chocoextra - Thu May 24 13:30:47 2007 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments
A. I have a self cleaning oven but I clean it myself, it doesn't smell as bad. I use Easy-Off cold oven cleaner, it is low fumes. (Read the label before you purchase, it tells you if it's low fumes.) To prevent heavy cleaning, I put a steel cookie sheet with foil on it under what I am cooking to catch drips, then I let it cool and throw away the mess. If I forget, I sprinkle table salt on the spill while it is hot. Leave it on there through the next time you use the oven. When it is cool, wipe it out. The salt may make a slight burn smell at first but it goes away. You will have a slight dark mark on the bottom of the oven, but the thick stuff will be gone. I use the Oxy Brillo steel wool to lightly scrub the stain away.

Is it safe to bake in a gas oven with a hole in the oven's wall?
Q. My mom said that rats made a hole at the back of the oven so the heat escapes out of it. She's worried that the oven might explode so we don't use it. Is the oven still safe to use or will it just ruin whatever we bake in there?
Asked by Philip - Mon Jun 16 04:55:53 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Due to safety concerns, I would prioritize getting your oven checked over by a competent engineer. This will establish the size of the damage and if it is repairable. (It will also determine if rats have damaged the connecting gas pipework). On a theoretical note, the hole (depending on size) will increase the inefficiency of your oven and it may not reach the desired temperature to cook the food properly. The risk of explosion will be a result of the rats gnawing on the gas supply pipework. Get an exterminator first though, to determine the size of the rat problem. provide advice and lay traps to ensure this doesn't happen again.

Asked by vee - Thu Apr 3 07:57:20 2008 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Microwaves and ovens don't work the same. Ovens use heat/hot air and cook stuff from the outside in. Microwaves, on the other hand, use microwave radiation to cook your food - it makes the water and oils in your food vibrate (causing them to heat up and thus cook everything) and is supposed to make things heat evenly throughout. Plus a lot of baking pans tend to be metal, which is not such a hot idea to put in the microwave. Also...if you try and bake stuff in the microwave (I've never actually tried like baking a cake though so I can't say) it won't get crispy or anything; I'd imagine it'd just be a hot, gooey mess. I'd recommend, if you don't have the space/$$ for a real oven, get a toaster oven.

Why does my microwave start working only when the oven has been on?
Q. Weird, both my microwave oven and regular oven are built in, microwave on top of oven. Microwave will turn itself off, loose power, after about 1 hour of no use. Now, here is the weird part. When I turn on the Oven for more than 1 hour the microwave power will come back on and it will ask me to reset the time. What is going on here?

A. I think you need an electrician to come and check your wiring. The microwave and range should be on separate circuits, by code, and there may be some sort of short going on. Whatever the case, it doesn't sound safe - call an electrician.

A. I would definitely have a professional check it out. You may not need to replace the entire stove, though. I had an oven in one of my vacant rental units that was getting hot on the cooking surface like that. I had my electrician check it out and discovered that the ignitor went bad and was staying on all of the time instead of just lighting the pilot when it was turned on. It was a less expensive fix than replacing the stove. In your case, I think it is not safe and it should be serviced. I know when my gas ovens go bad when they can no longer be serviced, the service costs more than 1/2 the cost of buying a new one or the unit becomes unsafe to operate. I always call in my electrician or my plumber to make that determination for… [cont.]
