Does anyone have the Miele Combi Steam Oven Installed yet?
Comments (12)I haven't done a lot of "menu" cooking either.. Usually I just create my own program. A few times that i tried menu cooking for vegetables, they turn out a bit overcook for my taste, so I readjust and select "al dente" on the scale each time and they come out better. I tried the "croissant" setting and it came out perfect. you can find some recipes on the miele website.. if you click on "recipe search", u can find the ones just for the combi steam oven. Here is a link that might be useful: Miele recipe This post was edited by noopd on Mon, Nov 25, 13 at 20:43...See MoreMiele Speed Oven or Miele Steam Oven
Comments (15)Fortunately, I have a relatively large pantry (vs. a much smaller kitchen). So when I got the Miele Speed oven, I just moved my old Sharp microwave and my ancient, beloved, toaster oven into the pantry. Now, about 8 months after the remodel, I still use the toaster oven for toast, having never even tried to toast in the Miele. And the pantry's microwave gets used to do something quick (like melt butter) while the Miele is pre-heating, or baking, or whatever. Though these things only happen occasionally, its been often enough that I haven't seen my way to tossing out either old oven. The drawback, of course, is that there are 5 ovens in my little kitchen/pantry area, which seems excessive. And I suppose the pantry has less counter space for canned beans or whatever... As for the Miele's combination mode, I've only begun to explore this by using it to reheat things like casseroles -- Alton Brown's "Cauliflower Say Cheese", last night. Master Chef expects me to know how much these things weigh, which is a struggle, but last night's guess turned out just fine. Oh yeah, if you select Defrost mode, the Miele speed oven will heat in the range of 75 to 125 degrees. This setting is useful for cooking "raw" foods at 104. I did think about a steam oven as well, but there really was no way to fit it in there....See MoreMIELE 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 MoreAnyone familiar with the new Miele XXL steam oven?
Comments (3)You might want to ask this question on the appliance forum. I think you could just have the CSO (I have a Gagg and it is my favorite thing in the kitchen)- I would add a large Breville toaster oven to make life simpler when you need a lot of things done. And I would not consider this move if I were selling my house in the next ten years. People want double ovens....See MoreFori
