Detailed product description

The role of the evaporation mold without holes

A solid steamer pan is a special container for steaming foods that require liquid. Unlike perforated pans (which are designed for vegetables and foods that need to be drained), a solid pan holds the liquid inside.

Main uses:

• Cooking white, brown, basmati, jasmine rice and more
• Cooking pasta, noodles and quinoa
• Cooking legumes such as lentils, chickpeas, and beans
• Preparing dishes in sauce or soup
• Cooking porridges, puddings and milk dishes
• Preparing soups and bone broth
• Cooking vegetables in sauce or butter

Template design and structure

Miele designs the non-perforated steaming pan with a continuous, sealed bottom and sides. The pan is made of high-quality 0.6 mm thick stainless steel – a thickness that ensures strength, stability and long-lasting durability.

Design features:

• High sides (40 mm) that allow for generous liquid filling
• Rounded corners for easier cleaning
• Raised handles or edges for comfortable grip
• Flat and uniform bottom for even heat distribution
• Strong and stable structure that does not warp in heat

The difference between a perforated template and a template without holes

Perforated template (with holes):

• Designed for cooking vegetables, fish and meat
• The steam passes through the holes and cooks the food.
• The fluids drain out.
• The food remains relatively dry.

Pattern without holes (continuous):

• Designed for cooking foods in liquids
• The food is cooked in a combination of steam and liquid.
• The liquids remain in the pan and are absorbed into the food.
• The food is soft, moist and soaked in flavors.

The importance of using an original template

Miele designs and manufactures the steaming trays precisely for each oven model. Each tray is tailored to the specific dimensions, depth and specifications of the oven. Using an original tray ensures a precise fit, optimal steam flow and perfect results.

Non-genuine replacement pans are often not a precise fit. They are made of low-quality materials or have insufficient wall thickness. They may warp in the heat or not fit the side rails. Using non-genuine pans may impair cooking results and void the oven warranty.

When should the evaporation tray be replaced?

Clear signs of need for replacement

Replace the template immediately:

• Visible signs of rust, corrosion or oxidation
• The mold warps or bends in the heat.
• Cracks, holes or damage in the mold
• Hard calcium deposits that cannot be removed
• The stainless steel loses its shine and looks worn.
• The template is no longer suitable for the side rails.
• Liquid leaks from the pan into the oven
• After many years of intensive use

What happens if a damaged mold is not replaced?

Using a damaged or warped pan will affect cooking results. Liquids may leak into the oven and cause damage. A rusted pan may release unwanted particles into the food. Uneven cooking will result in poor results.

Cleaning and maintaining the evaporation pan

Easy and quick daily cleaning

Step 1: Cooling Wait until the mold cools completely after use.

Step 2: Initial Rinse Rinse the pan under warm, running water. Remove any coarse food residue.

Step 3: Gentle Cleaning Use a soft sponge with a little dishwashing liquid. Gently wipe the inside of the pan, sides, and bottom.

Step 4: Thorough rinsing Rinse thoroughly with clean, running water. Completely remove any soap residue.

Step 5: Drying Dry the mold with a clean towel or leave it to air dry.

Treatment of calcium deposits and limescale

If there are calcium deposits or limescale:

Step 1: Soak in vinegar Fill the mold with a solution of white vinegar and water (1:1 ratio). Soak for 30-60 minutes.

Step 2: Gently scrub Use a soft sponge to scrub the residue. It should soften and crumble.

Step 3: Thorough rinsing Rinse thoroughly with clean water. Completely remove any vinegar residue.

Using a dishwasher

The Miele stainless steel steamer tray is dishwasher safe. Use a normal program with a medium temperature. This is the most convenient solution for everyday cleaning.

Important tips for maintaining the pattern

• Do not use strong metal brushes or excessively abrasive tools.
• Avoid aggressive cleaning agents containing chlorine.
• Wash the mold after each use to prevent sediment buildup.
• Dry thoroughly before storage to prevent water stains.
• If you use hard water, descale the pan regularly.

FAQ

What is the difference between a perforated and non-perforated mold?

A perforated pan is designed for cooking vegetables, fish and meat – the steam passes through the holes and the liquids drain. A non-perforated pan is designed for cooking foods in liquids such as rice, pasta and legumes – the liquids remain in the pan and the food cooks in them. Each pan serves a different purpose and both types are needed for a full kitchen.

Is the pan suitable for my oven model?

This template (part number 8246340) is suitable for Miele DGC combi steam ovens. Check the exact model number on the rating plate or in the user manual. Verify full compatibility before purchasing. Contact Miele Customer Service for exact information if in doubt.

Can the mold be washed in a dishwasher?

Yes, the Miele stainless steel steamer is dishwasher safe. This is the most convenient and easy solution for everyday cleaning. Use a normal program with a medium temperature. However, a gentle hand wash is also possible and recommended if there are stubborn limescale deposits.

Does the pan come with a lid?

Miele steam trays usually do not come with a lid. The steam in the oven cooks the food without the need for a lid. If you want to cook with a lid to maintain maximum moisture, you can cover the tray with perforated aluminium foil. Please refer to the user manual for recommendations.

How many unperforated molds should you keep?

It is recommended to have at least 1-2 solid pans. One pan is used for rice and pasta. A second pan is used for legumes and sauce dishes. If you often cook several dishes at the same time, it is worth investing in an additional pan. Combine with perforated pans for maximum variety.

Can I also use the pan for freezing or storing in the refrigerator?

The stainless steel pan can be used for short-term storage in the refrigerator. However, it does not come with an airtight lid and is therefore not ideal for long-term storage. For freezing, it is recommended to transfer the food to a more airtight pan. The pan is primarily intended for steam cooking in the oven.
