Oven Temperature Conversion Chart

Recipes from different countries use different temperature scales and sometimes different oven descriptions. Converting correctly prevents undercooked or burnt food.

Common oven temperature conversions:

Description Fahrenheit Celsius Gas Mark
Very cool 225°F 110°C ¼
Cool 275°F 140°C 1
Warm 300°F 150°C 2
Moderate 325°F 165°C 3
Moderate 350°F 175°C 4
Moderately hot 375°F 190°C 5
Hot 400°F 200°C 6
Hot 425°F 220°C 7
Very hot 450°F 230°C 8
Very hot 475°F 245°C 9

Important notes: US recipes use Fahrenheit. UK, European, and Australian recipes use Celsius. UK recipes sometimes include "Gas Mark" for gas ovens. Most modern ovens have both Fahrenheit and Celsius settings — check your manual.

Fan/convection ovens: If your recipe is written for a conventional oven but you are using a fan oven, reduce the temperature by 20°C (or 25°F). Fan ovens circulate hot air and cook more efficiently.
