Capacity
Cooking times are based on regular 8 ounce and 10 ounce potatoes, larger varieties
will require longer baking and will reduce the oven capacity. Following our loading
recommendations you can expect to fit the following amounts in the main oven and

If cooking sweet potatoes, they are less uniform in size which will reduce your
oven capacity, they also take less time to bake, allow approximately 40 minutes
but check after 30 minutes.
When the oven is fully loaded, particularly with larger potatoes, air-flow inside
may be restricted, in this case reduce the cooking temperature and increase the
cooking time.
Be aware that the above cooking times and capacities are estimated and may vary
depending on potato variety. Ensure you trial your selected potatoes before service
begins.
Hot Display
It is recommended that cooked potatoes are kept in the display area for a maximum
of 120 minutes. After this point the core temperature and quality of the potato will
reduce for serving.
The skin of the potato will become thicker and crunchier if cooked for longer at a
lower temperature, however once baked potatoes are removed from the main oven
their skins will become softer as they reduce in temperature. This is unavoidable
and does not indicate a fault with your oven.
The display area is intentionally a lower temperature than the main oven to prevent
the potatoes from over-cooking before serving. This also helps preserve flavour and
presents the potato to your customers at a temperature that is safe to eat.
