Features of the Aga Cooker

If you're new to the Age Range Cooker world, choosing between a 2, 3 or 4 oven model can be difficult. Lets help you to narrow down the choices!

Every Aga cooker will have a Roasting Oven and a Simmering Oven. These are the basics you need for Aga range cooking (as well as the boiling and simmering plate on top!). Each oven is set at a constant running temperature (for the traditional 'always on' models) but you can vary the temperatures by placing food on different runner tracks inside the oven, as well as using the cold shelf to deflect heat and reduce temperature.

The 2 oven model is everything you need for Aga range cooking. The roasting oven temperature can be manipulated with the cold shelf to create a lower temperature baking oven for cakes etc. If you're a modern day Mary Berry,  the 3 oven model with the dedicated baking oven may be the one for you. This is a relatively newer type of the traditional range so they're rare in our workshop and as soon as they come in, there's usually an order ready to snap it up! The 4 oven is perfect for the entertainers, if you have the space. You still have the baking oven of the 3 oven model but gain a warming oven and a warming plate to keep dishes at that "ready to serve" temperature. The bigger 4 oven frame also gives off slightly more heat to the room. Your warming plate is perfect for toasting up the guests plates ready for your food. We've also had farmers re-purpose the warming oven for incubating sick lambs or hatching chicks!! A true work horse.
