Default Oven for cheesecakes

I am in the process of upgrading my equipement, and am in-need of some advice on an oven for cheesecakes. I am not really looking for a "monster" oven, but one large enough that could handle around 6 cheesecakes at a time. Maybe a double oven? I'm not sure.

I've heard from a few people that convection ovens are "not" the way to go for cheesecakes. At the moment, I use 2 regular home-style ovens. They work great, and were great to use when I first began. However, I'm ready, and it's time for me to take the next step.

Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks!

We use conventional deck ovens with metal bottoms, not stone. I've also had a metal guy in to cut and rig vents for me. Something like vents to a steam injected oven. We also use these ovens for all our frangipan tortes and grain cakes. Great for choux.
good luck

Default Thanks Panini

I am sorry that I haven't replied sooner. I've been very busy, and also forgot my password.

I wanted to let you know how much I appreciate your input & advice. I have just recently been looking at ovens and trying to do what research is needed to choose the correct size & style.

I had not even thought of deck ovens. Monday, I will be looking into those, (metal bottoms, not stone) and asking lots of questions.

Once again, I appreciate your help.

Thanks,
EZ
