MIELE Steam Oven / Combi Steam Oven
Comments (7)(Cross-posted in other Miele Steam Oven threads) We bought a Miele DGC 6800 Combination Steam Oven (non-plumbed) and a few months later on a whim descaled the unit. Right after the descaling process, my Miele steam oven gives me a 'Fault 20' whenever I try to do steam cooking. The regular convection cooking works fine. Wish I had something else! It's out of warranty even though we probably used it about 20 times. Now Miele is asking for $150 for a technician to come out and pay an additional $90/hr for labor + $ for parts!...See MoreMiele CombiSteam XL v. XXL
Comments (1)Well, last night I cooked prime rib, roasted potatoes, carrots and parsnips in the combi. Earlier in the afternoon, I made a bread pudding, and my lunch was regenerated chicken from the night before. In other words, my combi is my go-to oven, and there isn't much that I don't cook in it. I don't have the Miele, but you would be surprised how much fits into a combi. I also love that it is smaller, so it heats up faster than my regular oven. Take a look over on the appliance forum, there are lots of discussions over there. Here are a couple to get you started: https://www.gardenweb.com/discussions/4530439/miele-combi-steam-xxl-vs-xl-do-you-wish-for-bigger?n=39 https://www.gardenweb.com/discussions/2291555/miele-combi-steam-oven-owners-thread?n=266...See MoreSteam Ovens vs Microwave Ovens vs Combi Oven
Comments (7)A combi oven is much broader in function than a steam oven. . I would look at Miele, plumbed version. It functions as a steam oven but also as a full on convection oven but with control of humidity. You can read some of the manuals online especially Gaggenau and it gives you an idea of how it can work and the levels if humidity for different cooking needs. http://resources.gaggenau.com/us/wp-content/uploads/BS-470-485-Use-and-Care.pdf For just reheating, a MW is quicker. It is sort of self steaming. Sometimes I just use a regular oven. “From what I am hearing, steam reheating is considered healthier compared to microwave.” I have seen this in marketing materials This is from Harvard. https://www.health.harvard.edu/staying-healthy/microwave-cooking-and-nutrition I would want to see a series of scholarly articles from an independent source. I think for some people , the combi oven is a great choice. I don’t have one because I don’t have room for a third oven and need the space of my 36” and 30” ovens. Any application if steam that I need, I can do a different way....See MoreMiele Combi steam oven
