    Heck yeah! The NY style is amazing in Koda 16. Using ultra low and even killing the flame turns your Koda 16 into a little deck oven and crisps it up really nice! Check out the recipe in Pizza with Rosehill Sourdough!

    I got the 12 and I modified it. Took my Napoleon grill rotisserie motor, drilled a hole and mounted it underneath. I cut and forged a steel plate that fit into the motor on which I placed a round pizza stone. The motor turns slowly and I get perfect pizza every time! Before I had to manually move the pizza around 3-4 times and it was hard to get it even.

    GREAT information. I'm curious if you have any experience with Nancy Silverton's dough recipe from Mozza. It's got a really high hydration level, and despite trying to keep my stone and oven from getting too hot, I found that the top of the pizza burned before I got solid leoparding on the crust and underside. I know there are other dough recipes lower in hydration that excel in the Ooni's high heat.. but I'd love to be able to replicate (or at least come close) to getting her recipe to work at home in the Ooni. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

    More water = more energy. Many people think this means higher temp but it actually means lower temp for longer. Because at high flame like you saw the toppings burn. If you’re using a Koda 16, get the stone to at least 400C then launch and leave the flame on high until the crust starts to puff up. Then cut the flame completely or use ultra low. Then at the end, turn the flame back up for some color on top, once the bottom is cooked. I call this the high low high and it works better for most pizza styles than just blasting on high

    We have a Koda 16 and found that for us, the best approach after we’re around 750f in the center is as soon as we launch, we turn off the gas completely and let it just sit for about 1 min (turning it at about 30 seconds) - then we turn it back on after that minute and set it on low and just finish as usual. Adds maybe a minute to our cook time, but we get great results (we do not like black and only very limited leopard spots on our crust).

    He does mention that if you want a crispier crust on the bottom that you can try to do the California style of baking and his “high low high” method and get it in for a longer bake (2-4 mins) by adjusting the temperature with the flame adjuster as you bake. 90 second Neapolitan style will have a bit of a flimsy bottom. I wouldn’t say that is undercooked but more of a preference. He mentions letting the bottom of your pizza tell you when you think it’s done. Give it a try. Hopefully it works.

  • @rosehillsourdough

    That’s correct. The pressure is different so the injectors are different. Ask Ooni support to send you the injectors for the US model. They are larger. If you just throw a us regulator on, it will be underpowered

    This oven is extremely difficult to use, and there's a lot of payola fake reviews out there. It loses massive amounts of heat, so while your stone might be 650 degrees, the back where the flames are will be 1200 degrees. My experience was pizza being too soft to turn on the front, and on fire in the back. I did not know about the super low setting, but that doesn't solve the problem of losing heat rapidly. For an American style pizza with toppings, this is the wrong tool.

    Hey Rich! Check out my “my first ooni pizza” video. I think you just need to turn the flame down. It’s designed to make Neapolitan pizzas when the flame is on high, but for other styles, you just need a lower flame setting. It’s a LOT of heat so there is a learning curve for sure. I hope you keep using it and I’m sure you’ll love it 🙌

    It's definitely NOT fire and forget - you NEED to spend time understanding the heat dynamics and pay very close attention when making a pizza. Been using mine since June and I've had some not very good outcomes and some glorious ones. The composition of the pizza base makes a huge difference - moisture content and (if you are using pre-made dough) sugar content. I've played with cast iron skillets stuff briefly and the garlic prawns that this thing kicks out FAST are gorgeous. This is NOT a tool for someone who thinks it's an outdoor version of their kitchen oven that you can slam something in and come back a bit later and it's cooked - this requires some learning, experience and (probably most important) constant attention when cooking. But when you get it right it is SO far beyond what you can do in a regular oven. And not just pizza.
