ClimaOptima
ClimaOptima offers you the possibility of adding up to 100% humidity to the oven chamber (temperature range: 70
– 250°C). The computer automatically operates according to the desired humidity content by adding or removing
humidity.
Many products contain a rather large amount of water and therefore give off a great deal of humidity during
preparation. Therefore, the oven chamber often contains 15 – 50% natural humidity.
Preheating with the desired humidity content for 5 minutes is recommended.
To produce a gravy when braising meat, apply 70 – 80% humidity at 145 – 165°C.
For poaching fish, poultry and vegetables, apply 70 – 95% humidity at 70 – 120°C.
For steaming potatoes, rice, pasta, meat, etc., apply 100% humidity at 100°C.
When using ClimaOptima correctly, you minimise shrinkage and enhance the appearance and taste
of the products.

If bar is all red, oven chamber contains 0% humidity.
If bar is all blue, oven chamber contains 100% humidity.
If the oven is not connected to a soft water
plant, CombiClean cannot function
properly.
For quick preparation, we recommend the following combination: 190°C – 70% humidity
Despite the short time of preparation, products such as marinated pieces of meat, fresh vegetables and
bread are treated very gently
