Cooking time and temperature calculator

Choose an appliance and food — the calculator shows an approximate temperature and cooking time. For a whole chicken you can choose 1.5, 2.0 or 2.5 kg.

Oven cooking time and temperature

Choose the food and, where relevant, its weight or size. A whole chicken includes 1.5 kg, 2.0 kg and 2.5 kg options. The calculator shows an approximate oven temperature, time range and when to begin checking doneness.

Air fryer

The air-fryer mode has its own timings because the smaller chamber and strong airflow usually cook food faster than a conventional oven. Large foods must fit with enough space for air to circulate.

Steaming fresh and frozen food

The steamer section shows both fresh and frozen timings at the same time. Standard atmospheric steaming is about 100 °C; frozen food usually needs longer.

Sous vide

Sous vide remains separate because time and temperature behave differently. The result depends on the product and thickness and is not a pasteurisation calculator.
