The Kings Wood Fired Pizza Oven Thread

[hademall]

Baking bread in a pizza oven is very tricky. It needs to be about 220-250deg and pizza ovens tend to be around 500deg.
Not to say it can't be done but regulating the temp is really hard. It's easy to maintain 500deg, as you just keep the fire burning and that's about that temp, once you give it 5-6 hours to heat up.

Expensive loaf of bread

Just on a side note don't throw petrol in the pizza when you try and light it. I know a bloke who did this and when the petrol didn't ignite this same bloke reach in with a lighter. Well this same bloke lost his eyebrows and singed his hair. Very silly thing to do and this bloke learnt his lesson..

This bloke being……..?

This might show it better.

(sorry about the shaky picture....)

I guess our little pizza oven is good for one large pizza at a time.

You need bellows as well to get the temp up to 500deg. I cheat and use the Stihl leaf blower, or sometimes the compressor and the blow gun..

I do have an old bit of copper water pipe about 2 meters long that I'll use blow the embers if I let it die down to much.

I won't name drop, because if I tell you I'd have to kill you.

Well your pizza oven is probably big enough to "dispose" off certain things .....

I have a micro oven.
I’m ok with it. My wife likes it. It’s what you can do with it that is what is important.

How do you get it at a solid heat in an hour

I think its the hard wood that gets the temp into it quick.

Back when younger (a lot younger) Grand father told my father when he was young that the hardwood was what got the heat into it. The hardwood last longer burnt hotter, so cheaper to run. This was the old combustion heaters. Same principle.
