It will take approximately 15-­‐20 minutes for V3 to reach grilling temperatures and 30-­‐45 minutes to reach baking
temperatures. We suggest you use a remote infared thermometer to measure the temperature of the baking
stones surface. The built in door thermometers measure the air temperature inside the oven for tradiMonal oven
baking.
!
1°) Choose the right fuel :
Only use fuels that do not produce noxious fumes. For best results we recommend hardwood (12 inches by 4) or
chunk charcoal. Do not use Mmber that has a high resin content such as pine or any treated or painted wood.
!
2°) Fire starters :
Avoid using fire starters such paper or cardboard, it will produce excessive amount of debris. Use kindling or fire
starters designed for grills. Open the fire chamber door and place the fire starters on the fire grate.
!
3°) Place the fuel in the fire grate :
Use the right fuel as described in point 1. Do not over-­‐charge. Four chunks will be enough to start.
!
4°) Set the vent knob :
When starMng the fire open the air vent all the way, adjust the burn rate and temperature by adjusMng the vent
during cooking. Do not exceed a temperature of over 500°F/260°C on the built in thermometer. If so, close a bit
the vent knob. Do not cook, grill or bake when the flames are excessively high-­‐ it is best to wait unMl the flames
have died down and the hot coals are providing the heat source. The double walls of V3 provide enough heat to
cook even a]er the fire going out.

Cooking

with the added flavor of a true wood fired oven. V3 cooking is a social occasion : cooking for family and friends in
the garden is a fun social gathering.

2°) Grilling :
By pulling out the safety pin and posiMoning it in the top grilling posiMon V3 is ready to cook steaks, roasts,
hamburgers, sausages, corn, fish and vegetables -­‐ with the advantage and added flavor of using a true wood fire.
WHEN GRILLING MAKE SURE THE FLAME LEVEL IS NOT DANGEROUSLY HIGH BEFORE TILTING THE OVEN UP
