## FAQ

### Does this adjust bake time for different pans?

Yes. Shallower pans bake faster and deeper pans slower. The calculator provides estimated time adjustments.

### How accurate are the conversions?

Standard conversion factors, full floating-point math — same precision as any scientific calculator.

### Can I convert in both directions?

Yes. Use the ↔ button between the fields to swap conversion direction.

### How do I adjust temperature when the new pan has a different depth?

Enter the original and new pan depths in the depth-based adjustment card. As a rule of thumb, every inch of extra depth means lowering the oven by about 50°F and adding ~30% time, since deeper batter takes longer to set without the top scorching. The card shows the recommended ±°F and ±% time delta in real time so you can apply it to any recipe.
