CONVECTION COOKING
The curved dome of the interior oven chamber is designed to have the fire banked to
the left side allowing the flames to curl up and over the cooking zone creating a natural
convection cooking environment. Like other convection cooking systems, this results
in decreased cooking times.
RADIANT COOKING
During the pre-heating process heat is stored in the refractory materials of the oven.
During cooking - this heat is radiated back to the food from every direction.
CONDUCTIVE COOKING
Heat stored in the ceramic refractory floor of the oven is directly transferred to the
food or dishes placed upon it. Pizza and bread are cooked directly from below sitting
on the hot hearth stone. Other dishes prepared in cast iron or terracotta cookware
adsorb heat and transfer it directly just as they would on a stove top.

assist you in cooking with your new oven. The three tool
set which includes a large peel for adding or removing
