Various methods of cooking are possible with a combi steamer; these include:

steaming;

combi steaming;

hot air;

regeneration;

low-temperature cooking;

delta-T cooking.

In addition, further vendor-specific types of cooking and actions are possible in a cooking process:

sous-vide cooking;

keeping warm;

smoking;

steaming;

rest time;

info display.

A cooking program may consist of one or more cooking steps. Each cooking step may consist of a cooking method or one of the other actions.

Figure 12 shows an overview of the object types for the Combi Steamer device class.
