Hell, every time I have moved I have had to adjust to the new oven,
regardless of whether there was a change in heat source. Some ovens
are just hotter than others. The old 1960s wall oven I use now is
practically nuclear, cooking things in half to 3/4s of the time. AND
if I want to bake something on 375 I have to set it on 325. It appears
to actually get 50 degrees hotter than you set it. (Judging by the temps
at which things have BURNED UP. lol I want a new one, but I want
it to be another wall oven. I don't think I can ever get used to bending
over to bake again.
