Oven temperatures: Fahrenheit to Celsius

350 °F = 175 °C = gas mark 4. Fan oven: about 155 °C. 400 °F ≈ 205 °C, 425 °F ≈ 220 °C.

Recipes from the US use Fahrenheit, most other countries use Celsius, and older British recipes use gas marks. This chart has all of them, plus fan oven settings.

The formula

°C = (°F − 32) × 5 ÷ 9. Example: (350 − 32) × 5 ÷ 9 = 176.7 °C. Ovens are set in steps of 5 or 10 degrees, so 175 °C is the usual setting.

The other way round: °F = °C × 9 ÷ 5 + 32.

Fan oven or conventional?

American recipes usually assume a conventional oven without a fan. With a fan (convection) oven, set the temperature about 20 °C (25 °F) lower.
