Thanks for another great video Ben. I baked my first loaf of bread and focaccia this morning and they turned out great. The overall Woodfire experience is fantastic. I love ending a busy stressful week with firing up my D105.

For cleaning the floor for pizza i think the best way is to get a realy long pipe, copper or anything you can find and can stand the heat and use is as a blower to blow the ash to the sides, cleans better and is very...very cheap!

+Δημήτρης That will certainly work! I have found though that because that method causes a cloud of dust, whcih then settles back on the floor where you're about to land your pizza. There are a bunch of ways to clear the floor that's for sure!

Hi thank you so much for all the advice,my oven has cracked outside,can I ask what I should use to repair it please,also if I want to cook pizza but then later on a shoulder of lamb will it burn the lamb if I put it in straight after the pizza cooking.stay safe and well at this very sad time x

Hi Shirley! Send us an email: sales@melbournefirebricks.com.au with some photos and we can have a look at it for you. Yes, if you're running at 350C for pizza then put a leg of lamb straight in it will probably cook pretty quickly! If you cover the meat with foil first, you can actually roast meat at very high temperatures - give the foil method a try next time!

@TheFireBrickCo
@TheFireBrickCo 7 жыл бұрын
Hi David, if the floor temperature is between 300 and 400 degrees C you will cook the base in roughly the same time that it takes to cook the toppings

Hey, great video there. How much wood should i burn to keep the temperature at a minimum of 450 degrees going 10 hours straight?
@TheFireBrickCo
@TheFireBrickCo 7 жыл бұрын
Hi Amir! Our commercial users go through about 40kg of dry hardwood per day in their restaurants, to maintain a temperature of 350 to 400 degrees C. 450 degrees C would require more, and I'm not sure if there would be much benefit in operating at this higher temp

I have a Wood Fired oven and found this video useful. I do however get a massive amount of smoke when first firing up my oven for about 30 - 40 mins. How is your oven not doing this?
@TheFireBrickCo
@TheFireBrickCo 4 жыл бұрын
Hi Luc, the length of smoking time is dependent on quite a few factors which you can work on ruling out. 1) The type of wood used: the drier the better and clearer the smoke. 2) The dryness of the oven itself: try to keep it as dry as possible between firings. 3) The insulation of the oven: If you have one of our ovens, it will be very well insulated, so this won't be a problem for you. When not insulated well, the oven takes a lot longer to get the fire to a clear smoking temperature. 4) Firing method: You're obviously familiar with our KZfaq clips but try our Fire and Forget method in this video if you haven't done so yet: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ZsVydbR-tbKWc2Q.html Good luck Luc!

Hi Ben, thanks for sharing all this info. I do have a question. If I do not want to cook pizza but some meat at a start temperature of, say, 280 C do I still need to go up to some 400 C to burn the oven clean or can I just heat it to the tempertature I need and start cooking? Thanks!
@TheFireBrickCo
@TheFireBrickCo 4 жыл бұрын
Great question! It's absolutely fine to heat it up to the temperature where you want to work at - however, we would highly recommend heating it up to around 20-30degrees above where you want it, so that you have a little cooling down control rather than fighting to keep the temperature up. Hope that helps to answer your question!

Hello, I build one like yours, but it is hard to fire up. Everyone advised me to make chimney in the back of the oven to get better draught. What do you think about it?
@TheFireBrickCo
@TheFireBrickCo 7 жыл бұрын
Hi Mark, definitely don't do that! It's well meaning advice, but that would actually make it worse. If you have the flue at the back the fire might burn well, but the vast majority of the heat from it would go straight up the chimney, rather than heating the oven chamber. The issue might be with how the oven is insulated - send us an email to sales@melbournefirebricks.com.au and we can see how we can help, even if it's just some advice.

Hi Whats the ideal temp and cooking time for bread? And do you have to remove the caols for bread ?
@TheFireBrickCo
@TheFireBrickCo 18 күн бұрын
Hi Patrick!! Great question - you don't have to remove the coals but you might want to, if you're baking a lot of bread at once, you if you're worried about ash floating around and landing on the loaves. Temp wise it'll be the same as you would target for any other oven! You should jump into our Facebook Community Group and put this question to them - facebook.com/groups/firebrickco

It's certainly something you wouldn't want, but thankfully it's not an issue that we have with our oven kits - the mortar and bricks are of a very high quality and are designed to handle the high temperatures without loss of structural integrity.
