What 300°C is used for
Extremely hot
300°C (572°F) is far beyond the gas mark scale and higher than most home ovens can go. You will mostly see it in pizza recipes.
Typical uses at this heat: pizza at your oven’s maximum; few recipes go this high.
Not sure your oven really reaches 300°C? Many ovens run hotter or cooler than the dial. See how to check your oven’s temperature.
How to convert 300°C to °F
Multiply by 9, divide by 5, then add 32:
540 + 32 = 572°F
The quick “double it and add 30” trick gives 630°F, which is 58°F too high at this temperature. That’s fine for weather but not for baking, so use the exact figure.
