yes ioo

Definitely have a go with a turning peel. It lets you keep the pizza in the oven. You don't need to turn it constantly. Also a perforated peel can be a challenge for launching. Sometimes the dough will get hung up on the holes and your toppings will launch all over the oven. I use flat wood for launch, turning peel while cooking and the perforated for fetching the finished pizza. You can be building your second pie on the wooden peel while the perforated one retrieves the finished one.

Hi! Awesome! Thank you and now the weather is getting better I will be uploading on Weds and Saturday - enjoy your new Karu - hope your first cook was ok!

Tip nr1. I've found that my Ooni karu indeed burns the pizzabottom at 430c in the middle. However, if I make the pizza bigger so that a larger surface of the stone is cooking the pizza it will come out perfect. I think it is because the temperature of the stone drops a bit faster if the pizza is bigger.

Very well done and professional - succinct and straight to the point, and very useful.... Mille mercis! And hope you’re doing well too. My son can only go back to Aber Uni on the 5th of February. 🧘🏻‍♂️

Hi! Thanks so much - hopefully in the Spring things will be better.

I’ve been using the karu with gas constantly for over a year now and my main tip is to use the chimney!! and have it open and close the door, it’ll get the stone fully heated in half the time or less. And never blow the dust away after brushing the stone in between cooks because the fire will come out and burn your eyelashes!

Hi there, me again. I'm having great success with pizza but I'm curious if you have any tips for using the karu to cook at lower temperatures. Can you post a video about something along those lines? Like perhaps demonstrating how the chimney flue can control the heat? Thanks for the videos, looks like you've been having fun.

Great tips thanks. I bought the karu without the gas attachment. After a couple of cooks I find the wood process to just be a bit too fussy for me. I'm curious from someone who used both... Is the final quality using gas "good enough", if it ultimately means I use this oven more?

Hi - I think it is- the gas burner works really well in the Karu because there is more room for it and it’s placed well, slightly facing upwards - I’ve made a vid on it - kzread.info/dash/bejne/oGxtq7dscsaafLA.html - hopes that helps!

@@Popspicker thanks for the reply. After my comment above, I bought the gas burner. And to be honest i like it better. It's the fire that creates the char regardless of the fuel, I don't see any noticeable difference in taste. And as expected it's just so much easier to use, it doesn't need to be a big process and setup.

have you used store bought pizza dough to cook in the oven? if so, do you get the same quality pizza? I've been using the Trader Joe's dough and it doesn't get crispy but it may be for various user error reasons on my behalf. thanks.

Hi! I've just bought the Ooni Sourdough and that vid will be going up next week. I think that if you cook slower on a lower flame you should get it crispy. Do you know what the ingredients are - I would avoid pre-made dough with oil/sugar in it - doesn't work for these high temp ovens but would be ok in an electric oven.

ANOTHER TOP TIP for those who launch their pizza too far in the oven, as I did last night. If you launch too far and find that all you are doing in trying to retrieve it, is pushing the rest of the pizza closer to the back. DONT PANIC! close the door wait for 20 to 30 seconds, this gives the base chance to start cooking and firm up, then go again with your peel. You should be able to pick up the whole pizza now and move it to where you want it.

@Got2EatPizza

Hi! Great tip! You could also place your steel peel into the flame to heat up quickly, which also protects your crust from the flame, then when it’s hot enough, slide it under the base to move it forward. 🔥

you think the ooni is good for a pizza business? after 1 pizza, how massive is the drop in the stone temp and how long do you need to reheat it before the second one? thanks!

@Got2EatPizza

3 жыл бұрын

Hi! The thing is this oven mustn’t be heated to a temp of over 500c (it states in the booklet). I think that’s pretty hard not to do with wood! And if you are cooking pizza one after the other for business there’s no opportunity to keep that temp down so that would be a key consideration here. So after a cook or two I let it cool down. I think it’s very good at retaining heat especially on the stone.

Жыл бұрын

Hi! I would need about 5-7 mins for the next pizza - it would need to be topped up straight after the previous cook. Also the time can be affected by the wind/breeze on the day of your cook and also the temperature outside. In the winter when it’s 2c it takes longer to heat up for the next cook. Wood should be faster with a good lump wood/charcoal and real wood mix and the door on. 👍🍕🔥

Hi! My advice would be a trial test as I honestly have never tried to start with newspaper so I think you should give it a go! However, I think maybe it won’t last long enough to ignite the kindling - depends how long it burns - that’s why I use a blow torch for at least 30 seconds to ensure the fire continues to catch the wood.

Yeah it is possible that they are just creating the 12-16 category as a way to make the size of the ovens instantly recognizable even by the most distracted customer, and that they have infact no intention of launching new ovens in the short to mid term. Which is a bummer if you like to cook with wood, want to make larger pizzas and like the design of the new ovens better.
