Three long reads from the cooking side of the trade
Older pieces about ranges and ovens at altitude, and about getting a large appliance into a warehouse conversion. The dishwasher work now has a library of its own: twenty-one symptoms, each with the Denver condition behind it.
- Viking Dishwasher Won't Drain: Filter, Hose or Pump? A Viking dishwasher that won't drain is most often stopped by a packed filter assembly, a kinked or blocked drain hose, or a backed-up sink or disposal, and only sometimes by a failed drain pump. Check them in that order before you book a repair.
- Getting a 48-Inch Viking Into a LoDo Warehouse Loft: Freight Elevators, Timber Floors and the 1988 District Ordinance A 48-inch Viking in a LoDo warehouse loft is serviced around the building — one freight elevator, a fixed car opening, timber floors, and a 1988 ordinance that rules out altering the exterior. Most range faults, though, are still fixed where the appliance stands.
- Viking Oven Baking Badly in Denver: Altitude or a Cold Oven? Pale, domed cakes and roasts that take forever get blamed on Denver's elevation. Altitude changes the recipe, never the thermostat. How to measure what your Viking oven is really doing before deciding it is normal.
- Viking Burners Burning Orange in Denver: It Is the Altitude, Not the Gas Tall orange flames, soot on the pans and a simmer that will not hold are the signature of a Viking range still jetted for sea level. How to tell an altitude problem from a real fault before you pay for either.
Read it, tried it, still wrong? That is what the number is for.
