Oven Temperature Converter
Convert oven temperatures between Celsius, Fahrenheit and gas mark for cooking and baking.
Common oven temperatures
What is Oven Temperature Converter?
An oven temperature converter switches between Celsius (°C), Fahrenheit (°F) and gas mark — the three scales used in recipes around the world. Indian ovens show Celsius, while many online and UK recipes use Fahrenheit or gas marks.
The conversion is a simple linear formula: °F = (°C × 9/5) + 32. Gas marks follow a standard table where each mark corresponds to a 25°F step.
How does the Oven Temperature Converter work?
Celsius and Fahrenheit are converted with the standard linear formula above.
Gas mark 1 equals 275°F (140°C), and each higher mark adds 25°F (about 14°C).
How to use the Oven Temperature Converter?
- Enter the temperature from your recipe.
- Select the unit the recipe uses — Celsius, Fahrenheit or gas mark.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a gas mark?
A gas mark is a numbered scale used on UK gas ovens, from 1/4 (very cool, 225°F) to 10 (very hot, 500°F). Each mark is roughly 25°F apart.
What temperature is a moderate oven?
A moderate oven is about 180°C (350°F), which is gas mark 4 — the most common baking temperature.
Do ovens run at the exact set temperature?
No. Ovens cycle around the set temperature and can vary by 10-20°C. An oven thermometer helps verify the actual temperature.
