Abstract: A method for providing cooking programs for at least one selectable product to be cooked, which can be cooked in at least two different charges in a cooking chamber of a cooking appliance. Cooking processes conducted depending on charge-dependent parameters are replaced by cooking programs that depend solely on fixed parameters. One cooking program is assigned to each charge respectively. A cooking process is conducted as a function of at least one charge-dependent parameter at least once for each charge, with a caliber-dependent parameter determined by a core temperature of the product to be cooked being selected as the charge-dependent parameter. A cooking process that leads to a specific cooking result is selected for each charge, with the cooking result being determined by the core temperature of the product and a cooking program being stored for each selected cooking process after the charge-dependent parameter is replaced by a fixed parameter.

Abstract: A method for managing cooking programs first comprises selecting, at a point in time (t0), a type of item to be cooked (i), items (j) of the type of item to be cooked (i), and various treatment planes (k) of a cooking compartment that are to be filled at a point in time (t2) with the items (j). Then, each treatment plane (k) is filled at point in time (t2) with the items (j). Then, in dependence on at least the filling of the cooking compartment with items to be cooked at point in time (t2), a first cooking temperature is set at a point in time (t3). Then, a signal for removing the cooked items (j) from the cooking compartment is emitted at a point in time (t4ki) for each treatment plane (k).

Abstract: A cooking appliance comprises at least one cooking compartment, at least one installation compartment, at least one gas sensor array for detecting the atmosphere within the cooking compartment, the atmosphere within the installation compartment, and/or the atmosphere surrounding the cooking appliance. The gas sensor array(s) have at least two separate, different individual sensors and/or at least one coherent sensor field including at least two different sensor segments. The cooking appliance additionally includes at least one storage unit for storing signals detected by the gas sensor array(s), at least one evaluation unit for processing the detected signals, at least one control unit for controlling cooking or cleaning processes, at least one first feed line for transporting the atmosphere from the cooking appliance to the gas sensor array(s), and at least one valve at the inlet and/or in the area of the first feed line.

Abstract: A method for cooking a cooking load includes at least two particularly individual items for cooking, the cooking state of which is characterized by at least two cooking state parameters, including a first cooking state parameter and a second cooking state parameter, in a cooking chamber with application of at least one measuring device for recording values of at least one property of at least one cooking load, for determining at least one of said cooking state parameters, which alters depending on the cooking process, whereby at least two of the items for cooking in the cooking load, differ in size, total surface area, volume, weight and/or diameter, in particular, mean diameter.

Abstract: A method for controlling a delta-T cooking process includes (a) selecting of a set core temperature KTs and a delta-T value for the food to be cooked, (b) introducing the food to be cooked into the cooking space at an initial core temperature KT0; (c) increasing the actual cooking space temperature GTa as a function of the actual core temperature KTa over the course of at least one first time interval in such a way that an essentially constant difference approximately on the order of magnitude of the delta-T value is maintained between GTa and KTa until KTa=KTs+A and thus corresponds to a maximum value GTa-r, where A is a temperature value smaller than delta-T; and finally (d) stepwise and/or continuously decreasing the actual cooking space temperature GTa during a second time interval to a final cooking space temperature of GTe=KTs+B, where B is a temperature value of 0?B<A, in such a way that, when GTa becomes essentially the same as GTe, KTa reaches KTs more-or-less simultaneously.
