Equipment & Setup
Ovens, mixers, ingredients, and what a real setup costs in India.
Noticed my cookies on the left side always brown faster than the right. Saw a video where the baker casually spins the tray mid-bake. Is that a real technique with rules or just vibes? when...
A lot of the professional recipes I'm learning from assume a deck oven. When one says 200 degrees, do I just... set my OTG to 200? My results say no but I don't know the conversion.

Ready to upgrade both my oven and mixer and the options are overwhelming. Everyone on Instagram swears by something different - imported convection ovens, this OTG, that OTG, Kenwood vs chea...
Buying a thermometer specifically for tempering. Probe thermometers are cheaper, the infrared guns look cooler 😅 Is there an actual right answer for chocolate or is this preference?
