Cooking with steam: The Bauknecht oven with steam support
Bauknecht has a large selection of different steam ovens that can be used for pure steam cooking or cooking with steam support. A Bauknecht steam oven can be recognized by the name Steam. A distinction is made between four different steam methods: Active Steam, Total Steam, Gentle Steam and Soft Steam.
👉 More on the topic in "Steamer Advantages".
Bauknecht Active Steam Oven
The Bauknecht Active Steam Oven is a steam oven that allows you to add steam to the cooking process. You can choose from three steam levels with different intensities: 75% steam, 50% steam and 25% steam.
Bauknecht Total Steam Oven
The Bauknecht Total Steam Oven is a steam oven that also allows pure steam cooking. The steam is added using different intensity levels: 100% steam, 75% steam, 50% steam and 25% steam.

Bauknecht Gentle Steam Oven
The Bauknecht Gentle Steam Oven is a simple steam oven in which water is filled into a recess in the cooking chamber to generate steam. There are three special steam programs for bread, meat and fish.
Bauknecht Soft Steam Oven
The Bauknecht Soft Steam Oven is a steam oven with a removable water tank that generates steam for cooking using two intensity levels: 25% steam for bread and desserts and 50% steam for fish, meat and vegetables.
Easy to clean: The Bauknecht oven with self-cleaning
A Bauknecht oven is easy to clean. In particular, thanks to the oven's self-cleaning function using hydrolysis or pyrolysis.

Bauknecht Hydrolysis
Hydrolysis is self-cleaning with steam, also called Bauknecht DiamondClean. At 90 °C, hot steam in the oven cleans dirt, which can then simply be wiped off with a damp cloth.
Bauknecht pyrolysis
Pyrolysis is the oven's self-cleaning at high temperatures. Dirt and grease are burned out at 475 °C. Ash remains, which can then simply be wiped away.

Highlights: This is only available with a Bauknecht oven
There are some features in the Bauknecht oven that other manufacturers don't have. The top highlights at a glance.
