Inspiring your Culinary Art
Gaggenau's latest combi-steam ovens allow the private chef to master steam, free from constraints. The enlarged cavity, cleverly lit by indirect lighting, conceals a full surface grill behind glass for ease of cleaning and aesthetics. Look further and more details become apparent.
Touches of Genius
A host of innovations have made the combi-steam oven ever more desirable. Automatic programmes offer culinary assistance that is entirely adjustable by the chef via intuitive TFT controls. The 3-point core temperature sensor is accurate to a degree and revises the cooking times as the dish is cooking. Water tanks have been enlarged, made more accessible and alert the chef when they require attention.
You create, the Oven cleans
The automatic cleaning system, now available in all combi-steam ovens 400 series, uses a cartridge to thoroughly clean the appliance.
Gaggenau's 400 Series Ovens offer Handleless doors that open automatically
With Gaggenau's sleek design and matching controls, creating a pleasing aesthetic in your kitchen is easy. Gaggenau's Steam Ovens offer precise cooking with variable humidity levels
Four humidity levels and up to 230°C alongside a full surface grill behind glass encourages you to not only perfect your steaming but also braising, baking, browning, grilling, gratinating, sous-viding and even juice extracting.
Greater illumination, Less distraction
Discreet lighting from soft white LEDs reveals your masterpiece in the making, but not the full surface grill covered by glass.
