Sorry for taking so very long to get ...time4myself,<br />Sorry for taking so very long to get back with you. Blogger didn't let me know I had a comment! I hope that you haven't gotten rid of your cooker but given the time lapse I'm guessing you have. Unfortunately I don't have any manual information with it but I would guess that the porcelain inner pot probably can't go into the oven. I say that because I know that most slow cookers, especially the older models, have a lower maximum temperature and I'm not honestly positive what that is, but I'm guessing it's probably between 250 and 300 degrees F. Older slow cookers don't tend to get that hot, with a typical max-out of 350 degrees. I know that I wouldn't gauge the abilities of a retro cooker on modern safety tests, only because the guidelines at the time of manufacture were different. I would say, if your slow cooker can't reach the temperatures you need it to, consider investing in a newer model with higher temp ranges or more specific controls - but consider keeping the older model (if it's still safe to use with no fraying cords) as a backup if it still functions otherwise and can capably heat food to a safe temperature over a span of 6-8 hours. This would also be a great alternative for all-day soups if the ingredients are more or less already cooked and only require reheat and simmer time, no real cooking.

I'm not sure it's working like it's supposed to because it doesn't reach the optimal temperature according to the Slow Cooker Safety's test, or maybe it's not suppose to work the same as a slow cooker? I used the info. on the following website: http://www.ellenskitchen.com/faqs/safecrock.html<br /><br />Is there a place I can download a manual? Do you know if the porcelain can go in the oven?<br /><br />Hope to hear back from you, and thanks for your help. I am about to junk it in e-cycle.time4myselfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09391707363371156649noreply@blogger.com
