Pizza Oven Buying Advice
Pizza oven is a cooking device used to cook a wide range of foods with a heated environment. It is the best way to cook pizza, bread and roasts; it is consisted of a door, a landing, a chimney manifold, an oven dome etc. The pizza oven uses conductive heat from the cooking surface, reflective heat from the dome, and convective heat from the hot air circulating to cook food. Reflective heat is the heat generated by the fire inside the oven and then stores in the oven dome, and bounces
off the curved shape of the oven dome to reflect down providing a consistent and high level of heat on the top of the food. Conductive heat is the heat stored in the masonry cooking floor then transfers up through the food. The extremely high temperature generated by the oven greatly reduces cooking time, which further results in more succulent and healthy meals. Convection is the fire inside the oven pull air in through the front door, heats it, and exhausts hot air through the top of the front door to the
vent. This airflow moves warm moist air across the food.
