Electrical Appliances you'll need.Temperature Converter supplied by Unitconversion.org The values in these conversion tables are only approximate and have been rounded up or down for clarity. Always stick to either metric or imperial measurements in the same recipe. Oven Temperatures Conversion TablesOven temperatures can be in degrees Celsius (International) -- previously Centigrade, degrees Fahrenheit (in the USA) or by gas mark (UK). This table provides a rough guide to conversion between the ranges. For fan assisted ovens use a setting of 25° Celsius (77° Fahrenheit) less than the recipe calls for. Cooking times can probably be reduced by 10 minutes for every hour of cooking time.

Note on cup measurements. In 'modern' recipes, use of the cup measure appears mainly in American recipes. Even here there are 2 standards. The Commonwealth or Imperial cup measurement is 1/2 pint though in practice, only commonly used in historic recipes. If your recipe uses cups as the 'base' measurement for all ingredients, then you should be ok. If you are uncertain, err on the side of caution. In general, it is easy to add a little more of an ingredient, it is much harder to take it away again, after the event. Lengths
