Small tweaks. Better results. Here’s how to get the best out of your Nester.
Tips and Technique
Getting Perfect Results
- Great results start with a few simple habits. Always preheat before air frying, roasting, baking, or steaming. A warm chamber helps even texture, consistent crisping, and reliable doneness. Spread food out evenly on trays. Overcrowding traps moisture and softens the finish. Flip, shuffle, or shake halfway through so heat reaches every side.
- For fries and crunchy snacks, use higher heat. For tikkas, kebabs, or paneer, use Tandoor mode for a balanced char and tenderness. For baking, use Bake or Cookies mode for steady low-to-medium heat. For pizza, choose Pizza mode for a crisp base and even melt. When in doubt, start with presets. They’re tuned for repeatable results.
Food & Living Tips
Mastering everyday cooking becomes easier when you focus on the details.
- Fries: Use high heat with Air Fry mode, shake halfway, and avoid thick layering
- Paneer: Marinate longer and cook on Tandoor for balance of char and softness
- Frozen snacks: Don’t thaw. Preheat and cook straight from frozen for better crunch
From quick snacks to family meals, small adjustments improve results without extra effort.
SteamLock™ Technology: Balanced Moisture, Better Texture
SteamLock™ Technology helps you get tender, juicy results by balancing controlled moisture with consistent temperature. It’s designed to reduce dryness and improve texture, especially for proteins, breads, and reheating.
How to get the most out of SteamLock™ Technology:
- Vegetables: Steam first for softness, then finish on Air Fry or Roast for crisp edges
- Meats: Use steam to retain moisture, then finish with higher heat for browning
- Reheating: Steam restores softness without turning food soggy
- Baking: Steam can support softer centres and better crust texture in breads
- Frozen items: Use a light steam phase to warm through, then crisp using Air Fry or Snacks
SteamLock™ Technology helps everyday dishes stay tender where it matters and crisp where you want it, using less oil and less guesswork.
Smart Multi-Rack Cooking
Your Nester’s multi-rack design is built for efficiency, not complication. All racks run on the same mode, but each level interacts with heat and airflow slightly differently.
- Use the top rack for faster browning and crisping
- Use the middle rack for even, reliable cooking
- Use the bottom rack for gentler heat and slower finishes
With more vertical space, you can cook mains, sides, and snacks in one go, saving time without blending flavours or textures. Multi-rack cooking isn’t about different settings. It’s about smart placement and a single great setting used well.
