You will Not believe This!
I also have a DEO-18T
It's about 2 years old
The rotisserie worked in the in-store demo in Singaraja but by the time it arrived home on my scooter, the rotisserie wasn't working
I think it was the last 1.4 kms of bumpy road into the village that did it in
Anyhow, you will also Not Believe This either!!!
Just as your post came through, my Mrs Mac's pie had just finished in the Denpoo and I am halfway through eating it right now
How's that!
Talking about pies, you also have a Denpoo and I can give you some up to the minute details on how to do the pie because I am actually doing it at the same time
Soon you'll be rushing out to buy an apron and a big white chef hat!
(Actually, my wife is a Chef and she wears a small hat - I think it's only the French who use those flamboyant ones)
Before you start the oven, get the pies ready to go
That black oven dish that is inside your oven, just slide it out
Get some alfoil and put it in the dish so it covers the bottom
Put the pies on the alfoil and make sure each pie is not touching the other pie or the sides
Slide the dish back in on the middle slot
There are 3 choices of slot on the Denpoo DEO-18T
Choose the middle slot, because of the surrounding heat being applied - that makes sense
OK - the top dial (right-hand side) is the Temp
Set it to 190
The next down is the Selector for the heat elements - turn the dial all the way to the right to use both top and bottom - the little diagrams show what each of the 4 settings are used for
You will find you use that setting for almost everything except grill (grill where the heat is on top such as for snags, chops, etc)
For a frozen pie if you just use TOP it will still be cold on the underside and maybe even still a little firm
So, set it for 'surround sound type heat' and it will be fine
Note: If the pie is not frozen, do the same as for frozen except only apply 15-20 minutes, depending on the pie itself - keep an eye on the browning of the top of the pie
The bottom dial is the combo ON/OFF timer
Make sure the door is closed and set the timer to 30 minutes
The red light will come on so you can see it is ON and, therefore, cooking - that's a handy feature to use from a distance
The rotisserie will turn but that rotisserie bar should not be inside for this exercise
I keep my rotisserie bar in the drawer and, sadly, the parts on the Denpoo and the KIRIN are not interchangeable due to different internal widths
Then just wait until the bell goes off - the red light goes off a second later
Bon Apettite!
