Your AGA Dual Control has three ovens, each of which
is pre-set at a different heat. They are named as:
The Roasting Oven
for high temperature cooking
The Baking Oven
for moderate temperature cooking
The Slow Cook Oven
for long, slow cooking
DO NOT OPERATE THE APPLIANCE WITH THE
DOORS OPEN.
Each oven has the same capacity, (able to fit a 13kg
(28lb) turkey). The AGA heat storage range techniques
can be used such as stacking of saucepans in the
simmering oven. This enables the steaming of root
vegetables, rice, steamed pudding, casserole, poaching
fruit all in the one oven leaving the hotplates free.
The ovens are made from cast iron, which cooks by
radiant heat, and this is the secret of the cooking
excellence for which the AGA cooker is renowned. An
indirect radiant heat does not dry food out, so it retains
its natural moisture and flavour.
When the ovens are in use the oven control knob should
be in the section.
A second position is available which lowers all oven
heat to reduce energy consumption.
To achieve normal cooking temperature, return the
control knob to section approximately 3 hours before
intended use.
The different zones of the AGA Dual Control range are described in the following pages.
The traditional AGA heat storage range is famous for the gentle warmth it emits, with the AGA Dual Control you will get
warmth only when the range is on or warmth, to a lesser degree, when only parts of it are on.
