The Igneus Classico wood fired pizza oven transforms your garden into a professional pizzeria. This black outdoor oven reaches temperatures up to 500°C and cooks two 12" pizzas simultaneously in just 60 seconds.
Built for speed and efficiency, it heats up in 15-20 minutes using kiln dried hardwood logs. The 60cm x 60cm cooking area handles multiple dishes beyond pizza including roast meats, fish, lasagna and vegetables.
This complete kit includes the oven, door, chimney with air damper, built-in thermometer, firebricks and fireguard. Weighing 45kg total, it becomes portable at 20kg when bricks are removed for transport or storage.
The oven cooks two 12" pizzas simultaneously in just 60 seconds once it reaches operating temperature. The extreme heat of 500°C creates the perfect conditions for authentic Neapolitan-style pizza with crispy bases and properly melted toppings. You'll need to rotate the pizza once during cooking to ensure even browning.
Use kiln dried hardwood logs for best results. Hardwoods like oak, ash, or beech burn hotter and longer than softwoods, giving you the sustained high temperatures needed. You'll typically need 2-3kg of wood to heat up the oven initially, then smaller amounts to maintain temperature during cooking sessions.
Yes, this oven excels at cooking roast meats, fish, lasagna, curry, vegetables and bread. After pizza cooking, the retained heat is perfect for slower dishes. You can roast a chicken in about 45 minutes, bake bread, or slow-cook stews using the residual heat that lasts for hours.
The built-in thermometer shows when you've reached optimal temperature. For pizza, aim for 450-500°C. The oven floor should appear white-hot with no black soot marks. This typically takes 15-20 minutes from lighting. You can also test by throwing flour on the floor - it should brown in 10-15 seconds.
Absolutely. The included thermometer takes the guesswork out of temperature management and the 15-20 minute heat-up time means you'll see results quickly. The complete kit includes everything needed to start cooking immediately. Many beginners find wood-fired cooking more intuitive than expected once they understand the basics.
After each use, let the oven cool completely then brush out ash and food debris with a stiff brush. The high temperatures naturally sterilise the cooking surface. Monthly deep cleaning involves removing all ash, checking the chimney is clear and inspecting firebricks for cracks. Store in a dry location or use a weatherproof cover.
External dimensions are 66cm wide x 68cm deep x 103cm high. The cooking chamber measures 60cm x 60cm. You'll need additional clearance around the oven for safety - at least 1 metre from combustible materials. Consider the chimney height when positioning near overhanging branches or structures.
The oven is designed to be movable. Complete weight is 45kg, but removing the firebricks reduces this to 20kg for easier transport. This makes it suitable for camping, moving around your garden seasonally, or storing indoors during winter months. The modular design facilitates easy assembly and disassembly.
