FAQs

What type of wood pellets should I use?

Use softwood or hardwood wood pellets designed for pizza ovens. Hardwood pellets often provide a better flavor.

How long does it take to cook a pizza?

A pizza can cook in as little as 60 seconds, but cooking time depends on the temperature and thickness of the pizza.

Can I use this oven indoors?

No, the Zanussi Pizza Oven is designed for outdoor use only due to the open flame and potential for smoke.

How do I clean the pizza stone?

Let the stone cool down completely. Scrape off any food residue and wipe it with a damp cloth. Do not use soap or water directly on the stone.

What is the warranty period?

The Zanussi Pizza Oven comes with a 1-year guarantee.
