A multi-compartment oven provides separate humidity controlled zones using separately controlled steam generators and humidity resistant partitions between cavities. A removable humidity wall may allow resizing of the cavities while providing the necessary humidity sealing and may be augmented by venting control based on neighboring cavity usage.
