Fahrenheit to Celsius

Living in Ghana, I needed to convert my oven recipes to reflect the change from Fahrenheit to Celsius. Here's a quick reference that I use:

200 F = 95 C

225 F = 110 C

250 F = 120 C

275 F = 135 C

300 F = 150 C

325 F = 160 C

350 F = 180 C

375 F = 190 C

400 F = 200 C

425 F = 220 C

450 F = 230 C

475 F = 250 C

500 F = 260 C



For more precise temperatures from Fahrenheit to Celsius (or visa versa) check this easy to use converter. Here's another one.

(The photo above was taken in the shade on our covered front porch today at 4 pm Ghana time. It's actually really cool here today. It feels like sweater weather, really! Usually it's at least 10 degrees warmer on this thermometer. And yes, I have seen this measuring past the 110 F (45 C). I decided it was time to take it in out of the sun.)
