How this converter works

Celsius and Fahrenheit are converted exactly (°F = °C × 9 ÷ 5 + 32), then shown alongside the nearest setting you’ll actually find on an oven dial. US dials go up in 25°F steps and UK dials in 10°C steps. Gas marks use the standard UK scale, so a temperature between two marks is shown as “between”, not forced onto one.

Fan settings use the UK rule of 20°C lower. US convection settings use the US rule of 25°F lower. Air fryer settings are a starting point: about 15°C (25°F) lower and roughly 20% less time. More about our sources.

Common questions

How do I convert Celsius to Fahrenheit?

Multiply by 9, divide by 5 and add 32. For example, 180°C × 9 ÷ 5 = 324, and 324 + 32 = 356°F. Oven dials in the US go up in 25°F steps, so a 180°C recipe is usually baked at 350°F.

How do I convert Fahrenheit to Celsius?

Subtract 32, multiply by 5 and divide by 9. For example, 350°F − 32 = 318, and 318 × 5 ÷ 9 = 176.7°C. UK recipes round that to 180°C.

What is Gas Mark?

Gas Mark is the temperature scale on British and Irish gas ovens. From Gas Mark 1 (275°F, about 140°C) upwards, each mark is 25°F hotter, up to Gas Mark 9 (475°F, about 240°C). Gas Mark ¼ and ½ are cooler settings below Gas Mark 1.

How much lower should a fan oven be?

UK recipes reduce the conventional temperature by 20°C for a fan oven, so 180°C becomes 160°C fan. US convection guidance is to reduce by 25°F. If a recipe already gives a fan temperature, use it as written.

Is 200°C the same as 400°F?

Nearly. 200°C is 392°F, and 400°F is 204°C. Recipes treat them as the same setting, and the difference is smaller than most ovens’ own error.

What temperature is a moderate oven?

A moderate oven is about 180°C, 350°F or Gas Mark 4. Older recipes may say “moderate” for anything from about 160°C to 190°C.
