That basically depends on what you are baking. If you are baking something like meatloaf, a chicken, a casserole, etc., then you should't have to adjust the oven temperature. But if you are baking a cake or homemade bread, then you may have to decrease the temperature by about 25 degrees Fahrenheit. But short breads (called that because they have no yeast, don't require rising time and bake in a "short" time), such as biscuits or cornbread, bake really well in cast iron.
No, cast iron bakeware is not recommended for every baking need. It works wonders for casseroles, cornbreads, and similar, but would not be appropriate for many pastry types of baking.
It depends on what you want to do with the skillet. A deep cast iron pot is idea for deep frying, while a more shallow skillet is best for frying or baking.

Yes, you can still use a rusted cast iron pan. To remove the rust, scrub it off with steel wool or sandpaper, then reseason the pan by applying a thin layer of oil and baking it in the oven. Regularly maintain and season your cast iron pan to prevent rust in the future.
Yes.
You can adjust the valves, on your 2.5 liter iron Duke, by using the adjustment screws. You can adjust the fuel and exhaust valves with the adjustment screw.
NoMore information:When baking, you USUALLY do not preheat the pan. Some products, such as cornbread, benefit from a crisp crust. In that case, a greased cast iron pan may be preheated so that the batter sizzles when poured into the hot pan before baking.
Yes you can. I've used my cast iron dutch oven for baking on camping trips, it works well.
Iron cookware has been around for a long time and therefore is obviously something very useful, even with today's "modern" cookware. Iron cookware needs to be seasoned by coating it in some type of cooking oil and baking it in the oven - thus giving it a finished coating by baking it on.
Malleable iron is produced by heating white cast iron to a specific temperature range and holding it there for a specific period of time. This process, known as annealing, causes the carbon in the cast iron to form irregularly-shaped graphite nodules, giving malleable iron its unique properties of strength and ductility.
