    you need to put the thermometer thru the preheat and about 20-30 minutes also. the oven will heat the air faster than the item in it so for an accurate reading of oven thermometer...pre heat plus 30 min. then see if the temps coincide with your oven knob...cheers!

    Hello, I have the same model of gas stove, and my question is whether there is a way for the stove to display the oven temperature on the screen?

    • @scotthardesty
      @scotthardesty  10 дней назад

      Not that I am aware of. We don't really have a screen on ours that would do that.

    The brass pin is milled at one site, the button is always sitting on the pin on the same direction

    So the knob temperature now lines up with thermometer. Why is the blue temperature light still on?

    • @scotthardesty
      @scotthardesty  10 месяцев назад +1

      With ours, as long as the oven is on, we have a blue light that is lit up. 2 actually.

    How do you know the oven is off now that you adjusted the knob?

    • @scotthardesty
      @scotthardesty  9 месяцев назад

      Because when you turn the knob to off, it's "off." Most ovens have 2 knobs. One for the setting and one for the temperature.

    My GE is driving me nuts. I set it say 450 to bake some fish and tten minutes later hit sto and reset it to 450f, and the temperature shows 260f. Even with cycling, it should maintain within 25f.

      I've have two thermometers. They are off from one another by 20 degrees. So, useless.
      Table sugar melts at 367 degrees. I suspect calibrating with sugar samples from a few sources will be more accurate than these thermometers.

      No knobs? Sounds like your oven is too cool for traditional cooking methods! It’s living in the future while we’re stuck in the past!

  • @larrytaylor2692
    @larrytaylor2692 5 месяцев назад

    This is not the correct way to do this because most ovens are digital now. Also wouldn’t that mess up turning the oven off because it would still be left on a little bit?

    • @scotthardesty

      It worked for this oven. So in theory, it is the correct way in my world.

    Watch Video using a paste of Dawn, Vinigar, water & Baking soda but leave overnight then put racks in very hot water and wipe with a steel wool or a firm brush, use hot water to wipe out inside of oven....will be very clean and not much scrubing...Also in your video, you need to mention if your oven has a calibration feature, if it does you can do that after instead of moving your knob...but it could be your oven sensor or your baking lower element, likely one of these, or just watch the other DIY fixit videos...lol

      @scotthardesty I just bought two to calibrate a new oven. There's a 25 degree difference between them. They were only $14, but ultimately useless.
      I ended up heating a half cup of avocado oil in an oven safe container and a cast iron pan to use to validate the oven's thermostat. I measured the temperature of the oil (after a quick stir) with a digital meat thermometer and the pan with an IR thermometer. I have much more confidence in these results.
      Fortunately, I had the thermometers from barbequing.

    That thermometer is the shitiest one that you can use and you will always get the wrong results. Invest in a K type thermocouple that attaches to your multimeter!

      Not everyone knows how to hook a thermocouple to a multimeter. Which I am sure costs more than this effective way of doing it. My temp has been perfect since I did this. But hey, thanks for the input.
