Air Fryer & Oven Converter
Convert temperatures and times between a conventional oven, a fan oven, an air fryer, a microwave and gas marks.
These conversions are guidance only. Real appliances vary a lot — air fryer models, oven calibration and load size all shift the numbers. Always check food is cooked through and trust your own appliance over any table.
Converter
Fan / convection oven
180 °C
27 min(90% of the time)
Gas mark ≈ 4
Fan ovens run ~20 °C cooler and a little faster.
Air fryer
180 °C
23 min(78% of the time)
Gas mark ≈ 4
≈ 20 °C lower and roughly 20–25% less time.
Microwave
—
9 min(30% of the time)
Microwaves do not brown or crisp — treat this as a rough reheat/steam guideline only.
Gas mark
200 °C
29 min(95% of the time)
Gas mark ≈ 6
Gas ovens are slightly slower to recover heat.

Internal temperature guide
Conventional 1 h 20 min · fan 1 h 12 min · air fryer 1 h 2 min. Always verify with a probe.
Rough reheat equivalent ≈ 10 min, then stand 2 min. Microwaves cannot crisp or brown, so this never matches an oven result.
| Doneness | °C | °F | Rest |
|---|---|---|---|
| Beef / lamb — rare | 52 | 126 | 5 min |
| Beef / lamb — medium rare | 55 | 131 | 5 min |
| Beef / lamb — medium | 60 | 140 | 5 min |
| Beef / lamb — medium well | 65 | 149 | 5 min |
| Beef / lamb — well done | 71 | 160 | 5 min |
| Pork — medium | 63 | 145 | 3 min |
| Pork — well done | 71 | 160 | 3 min |
| Chicken / turkey — breast | 74 | 165 | 5 min |
| Chicken — thigh | 82 | 180 | 5 min |
| Sausages | 71 | 160 | 2 min |
| Fish — salmon | 50 | 122 | 2 min |
| Fish — white fish | 60 | 140 | 2 min |
| Minced meat dishes | 71 | 160 | 2 min |
Temperatures are the point to pull the food from the heat — carry-over cooking adds 2–5 °C during the rest.

About this tool
Converts cooking temperatures and times between a conventional oven, a fan oven, an air fryer and a microwave, including gas-mark, °C and °F equivalents, an oven-to-air-fryer table for common foods and a probe-temperature doneness guide with rest times. Everything is calculated in your browser from published conversion rules — fan ≈ 20 °C cooler, air fryer ≈ 15–20 °C cooler with 20–25% less time — and no data ever leaves the device.
