If you don't have any kind of thermometer, it will not be possible to use this method of checking your oven temperature. Since you are missing your temp gauge know, I'd see about replacing it and maybe having a professional come out and calibrate the oven for you. Then you'll know where it's set. Otherwise, you could invest in an inexpensive candy thermometer (I think you can get them on Amazon for about $10), or borrow one from a friend, buy a new knob and then try to calibrate the oven yourself. Even if you get close, at least you'd have an idea of where the oven is set at. Good luck! Hi there!

So now how do I check the oven temp ? Just have to keep checking my cookies, I guess. The darn temperature guage knob is broken and I have no idea where it is set, even when I put it on 350 degrees. It could be off as much as 50 to 75 degrees either way. Grrrrrrrr !!

I do know that ovens do not stay at one temperature consistently, but fluctuate around the temperature you set them at. If you're not having a hard time cooking things properly in the oven, then I would say that your oven is fine. If it is hard to cook things (if they are always underdone or always burning), I would have a professional look at it. Hope that helps! I really do not know the answer to your questions.
