FAQs
Can I use the Ooni Karu 2 indoors?
No, this oven is designed strictly for outdoor use only to prevent the buildup of carbon monoxide.
How do I clean the cordierite stone?
Use a pizza oven brush to sweep away debris. For stubborn stains, flip the stone over; the heat from subsequent cooks will burn off residue.
Is the gas burner included?
The gas burner is generally sold as a separate accessory; check your specific purchase bundle.
How long does it take to heat up?
Depending on the ambient temperature and fuel type, it typically takes 15-25 minutes to reach baking temperature.
What is the maximum pizza size I can cook?
The oven is designed to accommodate up to a 12-inch pizza.
What type of wood should I use?
Use small, kiln-dried hardwood logs (like oak or beech) to ensure high heat and minimal smoke.
Troubleshooting
The oven is not reaching 500°C.
Ensure you are using high-quality, dry hardwood and verify that the fuel tray is not overfilled, which can restrict airflow.
The pizza base is burning before the toppings are cooked.
The stone may be too hot; wait a few minutes between pizzas to allow the stone temperature to stabilize.
Excessive soot on the glass door.
Ensure you are using seasoned, low-moisture wood and maintain a steady flame to improve combustion efficiency.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is straightforward: place the oven on a sturdy, non-combustible surface such as a stone or metal table. Ensure there is at least 1 meter of clearance around the oven to maintain safety. To care for the oven, allow it to cool completely before attempting to clean it. The cordierite stone should be wiped down with a dry brush or cloth; avoid using water or soap as this can damage the porous material. Use a damp cloth to clean the exterior stainless steel surfaces once the oven is cold. If using the oven outdoors, keep it covered with a compatible Ooni cover to protect it from moisture when not in use.
