Troubleshooting
Baked goods are sticking to the tin.
Ensure the tin was properly preheated with the batter/mixture and that the non-stick coating has not been scratched or damaged by abrasive cleaning. Re-seasoning the tin by lightly greasing and heating may help. Always use non-stick safe utensils.
Uneven baking results (hot spots).
Verify that the oven temperature is accurate and that the tin is placed in the center of the oven. Ensure the tin is not placed too close to the oven walls or heating elements. The carbon steel construction aims for even heat, so oven calibration is key.
Non-stick coating appears to be degrading.
This can happen if the tin has been exposed to excessively high heat, washed in a dishwasher, or cleaned with abrasive materials. Hand washing with mild soap and a soft sponge is crucial for longevity.
Tin shows signs of warping.
While designed to resist warping, extreme temperature fluctuations or improper cooling can contribute. Ensure the tin cools gradually after baking. If warping is minor, it may still be usable, but significant warping can affect baking consistency.
