FAQs
Is this loaf tin truly dishwasher safe?
Yes, the Zyliss Non-Stick Loaf Tin is designed to be dishwasher safe for your convenience.
What is the maximum oven temperature this tin can withstand?
The loaf tin can withstand temperatures up to 240°C (475°F or Gas Mark 9).
How long will the non-stick coating last?
The double layer of ILAG non-stick coating is designed for durability. With proper care, including avoiding abrasive cleaners and metal utensils, it should provide excellent non-stick performance for an extended period. The 5-year guarantee also covers manufacturing defects.
Can I use metal spatulas or knives with this tin?
It is strongly recommended to use silicone, nylon, or wooden utensils to avoid scratching and damaging the non-stick coating, which will ensure its longevity.
What kind of recipes is this tin best suited for?
This tin is ideal for a wide range of recipes including traditional breads, sweet loaf cakes, fruitcakes, pound cakes, meatloaf, and terrines due to its deep sides and even heat distribution.
Does the grey color affect baking performance?
No, the color does not impact baking performance. The grey color is a cosmetic choice; the baking quality is determined by the material (carbon steel) and the non-stick coating.
What should I do before using the loaf tin for the first time?
Before the first use, wash the loaf tin in warm, soapy water using a soft cloth or sponge, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
Troubleshooting
Baked goods stick to the pan.
Ensure the non-stick coating is not scratched or worn. Lightly grease the pan before adding batter, even with non-stick properties. Check if the coating is damaged; if so, replacement may be necessary.
Uneven baking (burnt edges, raw center).
Verify oven temperature accuracy with an oven thermometer. Ensure the tin is placed in the center of the oven rack for even heat circulation. Check that the oven's heating elements are functioning correctly.
Pan appears warped.
While the rolled edges offer resistance, extreme temperature fluctuations or mishandling could cause warping. Ensure the pan is allowed to cool gradually before washing. Check for any physical damage.
Non-stick coating is peeling or damaged.
Discontinue use if the non-stick coating is significantly compromised. Avoid using metal utensils or abrasive cleaners. Contact Zyliss customer service regarding the 5-year guarantee if the damage is due to a manufacturing defect.
