Embodiment Construction

[0056] The present invention provides a cooking device to cook food on a cooking support, eg in a basket, in a cooking chamber. The cooking parameters are sensed over time so that the desired cooking time can be determined. User intervention with the food is sensed during cooking, such as shaking the basket. Then, redetermine the desired cooking time. In this way, the cooking time remains accurate with or without intervention. For example, this may enable the user to be given more accurate information about when the cooking process will be completed, or may enable automatic cooking to be controlled in a more reliable manner.

[0057] For example, the invention is of interest for application to air fryers.

[0058] figure 1 A known design of an air-based fryer 1 is shown in cross-sectional view. The air-based fryer 1 comprises a cooking chamber 2 having side walls 3 , a bottom wall 4 and a top wall 5 . A food support in the form of a basket 10 is arranged inside the cooki...

Abstract

A cooking device is for cooking food on a support (e.g. in a basket) within a cooking chamber. Cooking parameters are sensed over time so that a required cooking time can be determined. An intervention made by a user to the food is sensed during cooking, such as shaking the basket. The required cooking time is then re-determined. In this way, the cooking time remains accurate both for an intervention or no intervention. This may for example enable the user to be given more accurate information about when the cooking process will be complete.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a cooking device and method for estimating the time required for a cooking process to be completed. Background technique [0002] Current cooking devices are primarily controlled by user selection of parameters such as time and temperature. Automatic selection of these cooking parameters would be convenient for the user and would also improve cooking results by eliminating human error. [0003] In order to accurately control the cooking process, it is necessary to know the key attributes of the food during cooking. In particular, these key attributes should allow measuring or predicting "doneness" during cooking. For example, the core temperature of a food item changes as the food is cooked. The core temperature of a food is a basic measure of doneness: it should be above a certain value for a particular type of food to kill harmful bacteria that cause foodborne illness, but not too high to avoid overcooking. So, to...
