FAQs

What type of fuel should I use?

The oven is designed to be used with lumpwood charcoal or briquettes, placed on the included fuel shelf.

How long does it take to preheat for pizza?

Preheating time can vary, but for optimal pizza baking, allow at least 30-45 minutes to reach high temperatures (around 400-500°C).

Can I use this oven indoors?

No, this oven is strictly for outdoor use due to fire safety regulations and the nature of its operation.

What are the benefits of the stainless steel doors?

The stainless steel doors are designed to retain heat effectively within the oven, promoting consistent cooking temperatures and efficiency.

Is assembly required?

Yes, the oven requires assembly. Please refer to the included instruction manual for step-by-step guidance.

How do I maintain the pizza stone?

Once cool, brush off any food debris. Avoid using soap or water, as this can damage the porous stone. Minor staining is normal and does not affect performance.

What is the purpose of the bottom storage shelf?

The bottom storage shelf is provided for convenience, allowing you to store cooking utensils, plates, serving dishes, or safety equipment nearby while you cook.

Troubleshooting

Oven not reaching desired temperature

Ensure the fuel shelf is adequately loaded with charcoal and that the air vents (if applicable and not blocked) are open to allow airflow. Check that the stainless steel doors are securely closed.

Pizza crust is soggy

Preheat the oven and pizza stone for at least 30-45 minutes to ensure they are extremely hot. Make sure the pizza is not overloaded with toppings, which can add moisture.

Difficulty cleaning ash

Wait for the oven and ash to cool down completely before attempting to remove the ash drawer. If ash is stubborn, a soft brush can help dislodge it.

Uneven cooking

Rotate the food periodically during cooking. Ensure the fuel is distributed evenly on the fuel shelf for consistent heat.
