  • I didn't realise that European ovens only went to 220, I thought most went to 250. I have an American cooker and the dial goes to 500. On my last sourdough I heated it to 475, then when the bread went in I backed it down to 425. Did 20 minutes with the lid on the Dutch oven, the last 20 minutes with the lid off and the fan on. I have never put a thermometer in there to determine what the actual temperatures are.

    All I ever had went to 250.

    That's Fahrenheit, not Celsius, I suppose?
    500F is about 260°C.
