Remember folks these ovens are for Neapolitan pizzas which are totally different to pizza hut type pizzas, these are very thin base crust with chesee, tomato sauce and perhaps mushrooms or onions anchovy or an egg , very few toppings , keep it thin and you will have a perfect pizza.

I got mine about a week ago and it's pretty awesome being able to make restaurant quality pizza at home. The one recommendation I have is to not let the oven get too hot. I like to let the stone get to about 800F in the middle. At that temperature, you get cook times that are closer to 90-120 seconds which allows a really nice even cook throughout the pizza. Higher than that, you'll start burning the toppings and edges of the crust before the middle parts of the crust are fully cooked.

Thanks for the tips! Especially clearing the pellets to get they burning nicely. However, isn’t 850 the perfect temp? 950 seems too hot; adds just a bit too much char? Maybe it’s personal taste, but a true Neapolitan chewy crust isn’t blackened. Looking to buy the oven, but not if it incinerates a great sourdough thin crust Neapolitan pizza? Is the temperature controllable? Obviously have to be patient to build stone temperature, but can you cap/damper and maintain a 850-900 temperature?

Thanks for reaching out! So I have a propane fueled Camp Chef pizza oven, so there really wasn’t a need for me to get an Ooni that ran on gas. Now don’t get me wrong I would love to try charcoal, but I figured I’d try the pellet only version as it was a bit less expensive.

Great video. I've used 3 brands of pellets. The low end ones seemed to have too much water in them. As the pellets in the hopper warmed, they expanded and got stuck resulting in low temps. I've switched back to a different brand and generally I haven't had much probablem with the self-feeding. I usually cook about four pizzas back to back...then rest for about five minutes to get the temp back up and add some pellets. Question for you: do you ever clean your stone in between pizzas with a brush? As noted in this video, sometimes the flour used to role out the dough results in some char on the stone that gets picked up by the following pizza.

@AndersonsSmokeShow

I haven’t cleaned the stone during a cook, but I guess you could. I would be careful which type brush you use, and it’s deadly to ingest a wire bristle

You don’t have to keep it closed the whole Time. In fact when cooking it’s probably best to leave it open because the surface can burn pretty quickly,

So the chimney cap is also used as a pellet scoop. I start out with a couple scoops of pellets on the “burner” and let that thing get roaring. Then I start to trickled pellets down the hopper as I don’t want to smother the fire. Once I see that me adding pellets doesn’t do that, then I fill the hopper. In my experience a roaring fire with a full hopper is about 15-20min of fuel. Between letting the stone get hot and letting the heat regenerate in between pizzas you may have to add more as you go. I just keep and eye on the hopper and make sure that I don’t let it run dry.
