Oven Temperature Converter

Convert oven temperatures

Recipes from different countries quote oven temperatures in different units: Celsius in most of the world, Fahrenheit in the United States, and gas marks on many British ovens. This converter translates between all three so you can follow any recipe on your own oven. Enter a temperature in Celsius, Fahrenheit or as a gas mark, and it shows the equivalents, plus a plain description of how hot the oven is, from a cool slow oven to a hot oven.

Fahrenheit converts by the standard formula, while gas marks map to Celsius using the conventional table where gas mark four is 180 degrees Celsius.

Baking with confidence

Oven temperature is critical in baking, where small differences affect rise, browning and texture, so converting accurately matters. Gas marks are not linear, so this tool uses the established reference table rather than a formula, and when converting to a gas mark it picks the nearest standard mark. Fan ovens typically run hotter, so many recipes suggest reducing the temperature by about twenty degrees Celsius for fan-forced cooking.

Use the description as a quick sanity check that the temperature suits your dish. All conversion happens locally in your browser.
