Talk:Gas Mark
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I always thought the Gas Mark system was discontinued when North Sea Gas was introduced, since the different pressure threw the calibration out of alignment. Confirm/deny?
- It's still in use in the UK. They didn't replace all the gas ovens! 66.92.237.111 02:48, 28 November 2005 (UTC)
- So that's why everything gets burn't if I use the recomended gas setting.Dejvid 09:47, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
- it wouldn't be down to pressure but the heat of combustion of the different fuel mix. My butane or proane powered cooker goes up to gas mark 13 but on whatever I'm using now (I can't check, its 300 miles away and I'm in the land of electricity thats reliable enough to cook food with and run semiconductor plants on right now....), that amounts to about 160 celsius. Its different on the other gas, whichever that is... --Kiand 17:46, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Probably a typo
"It is still in use, however it is not as widespread as it was in the last half of the twentieth century."
Shouldn't this read "first half of the twentieth century?"
