I had an itch for a 42 KK. This wood fired oven has helped to scratch that itch. Enjoying it so far and am happy with the clean up - just normal kitchen size dishes and sweeping up some ash. Winner alongside my existing kit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poochie Posted April 7, 2022 Report Share Posted April 7, 2022 Are you burning oak in it? I'm pretty sure I'd get the wood burning version of a pizza over too. The one David bought has the room I want in one. I need to look up the Allegro too. So many toys to admire. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many toys to admire. a 4 pizze alfa would be ideal if you are looking for wood burning. it's actually bigger than my brio but smaller than the allegro. if space and permanence is not an issue, i would go for a full refractory pizza oven. i only got the alfa because it was the maximum weight and size i could manage to hand carry up stairs. same reason i got a 19 TT, can't bring any bigger up the roof.. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I have read so far, oak is what you need to get the heat up and beech for a bit of flavour. At the moment I have a stack of mixed wood to get through but will order some named logs for my next delivery to try out. I watched this video when I was trying to decide which sort of wood fired oven to get. I went for the Allegro because it heats up quickly and so uses comparatively less wood per cook. You don't get the heat retention of more traditional ovens but I figured that I get that from my KKs.

C6Bill Posted June 26, 2022 Report Share Posted June 26, 2022 (edited) Well it is a much better price than I paid but I didn’t have to buy a kilo 😁 Sad part is I’m less than a 2 hour drive from Maine lol Edited June 26, 2022 by C6Bill 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Chang Posted July 30, 2022 Report Share Posted July 30, 2022 made a breakfast pizza on the alfa. its really too hot for slinging pizzas outside in this weather. i want a brick oven built into the wall of my kitchen so i can do this in air conditioned comfort wearing only my underwear… 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
