Three charts to help with converting recipes


I can never remember what weights convert to, nor what temperature different types of ovens cook at. In my life I have used conventional and fan ovens as well as gas ovens, so one recipe I may know for a gas oven, but now I use a fan oven, so I need to convert the recipe. I always end up having to look things up, so decided to keep all my conversion charts in one place. And now I'm sharing...
