About this tool
Slow cooker recipes often list only one setting, but the other is a simple multiple away. As a rule of thumb, high takes about half the low time. This converter applies that guide and reminds you that very short cooks and delicate foods do not always convert neatly.
Frequently asked questions
Does everything convert cleanly?
Almost everything, but delicate fish and dairy dishes can overcook on high, so check them early.
Can I switch settings halfway?
Yes, but keep track of total heat time rather than assuming the two halves add up neatly.
