Frequently asked questions
Is this tool free?
Yes. Calchemy tools are free to use in your browser.
Is my data uploaded?
No. The tools are designed to run locally in your browser unless clearly stated otherwise.
How is the oven temperature chosen?
The scheduler sets the oven to the lowest recipe temperature among your selected dishes, converted to your oven type. This means nothing is cooked hotter than it should be. Dishes that need a higher temperature just get more time instead.
What is resting time for?
Meat like turkey needs to rest after cooking before carving. Add a resting time and the schedule will show when it needs to come out of the oven versus when it's actually ready to serve.
Is the adjusted cooking time exact?
No, it's an estimate based on scaling recipe time against the temperature difference. Always check meat is cooked through, ideally with a meat thermometer (74C/165F in the thickest part for turkey), before serving.
