I made a cheesecake in a pan I've used numerous times, and the bottom of the oven got quot;greasy,quot; evidently from the buttery graham cracker crustThe kitchen smelled like burned grease! It was a disaster!
If the pan is prone to leaking, after testing it by filling the pan with water before using, then wrap the outside (bottom and sides) of the springform pan with two layers of aluminum foil to prevent any leaking.
