    The website says that delivery of new orders is February. Would it not be worth waiting to see if they have a Boxing Day sale? I’d say delivery times would fr the same.

    Yeah I would wait to see if anything happens on the 26th. No guarantees but its only 2 weeks away. If not ask on thread for a referral code which would give you 10% off

    I ordered the Karu on the 30th November from the EU site, with a projected delivery date of late-February.

    It is currently in the UK, after being dispatched from the Netherlands on the 10th December, so it was dispatched well before its due date.
    I hope that it is delivered this weekend, but if not I'm sure to be eating pizza next week.

    Pricey purchase, but a bit of fun.

    It is pricey at first but since owning one from summer 2019 Id say Ive cooked about 50 pizzas on it. Pizza for me up until then was always a takeaway as I dont like the frozen offerings in the supermarkets, they're generally all 5 out of 10 efforts. At a tenner a takeaway pizza I could easily have spent 500 euro over that time but instead with the Ooni they are just a fraction of that price and just as tasty too.

    Just got an email to say my pizza oven is on its way! Now I need to start looking up pizza dough recipes for beginners.

    I've no interest in these ovens.....we make pizzas using our regular oven on a Saturday night, every 2/3 weeks. Too much money to be only using once or twice a month.

    Anyway, I've used quite a couple of recipes and the Odlums one is really straightforward. I can get 3 large thin pizzas out of the recipe.

    That's fine if that's what you want, home ovens don't get anywhere hot enough for good pizza though. Might as well stick to frozen pizzas.

    Ah now it doesn't cook as well as using a proper pizza oven but saying it's no better than frozen. :confused:

    If you're cooking pizza's that regularly even twice a month the Ooni is worth it though. You'll probably end up having them more often it's that much better out of it! I got a Ooni Karu in the summer I'm still using it every week often twice. The Ooni is actually quicker than using the oven. My Karu take's about 15 minutes to get up to temp with charcoal, gas would be a bit quicker. Oven is similar to get to 250, pizzas take 7 to 8 minute to cook in it. Pizzas in the Ooni take 90 second to 2 minutes so I can top and cook 3 pizza's in the ooni in the time it takes to cook one in the oven.

    It's not just pizza you can cook on it fresh naan's are savage!

    If anyone is ordering one, I have a favour to ask. I want to get a set of "shoes" for the ooni but the shipping is €20! (It's only free over 99)
    If anyone was willing to let me pay them €10 plus whatever postage in Ireland I would be grateful

    I've just used charcoal so far. Keep meaning to get some hardwood kindling to try but only ever see softwood kindling for sale. May just pick up some hardwood logs and split them to size.

    Really thinking about buying one of these. A question though.....

    Where are people storing them when not in use/over winter. Is it a case of lugging them in and out when you want a pizza? Is there any kind of ideal setup where they could be left out permanently, under a canopy with a cover on for example?

    Thanks

    Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,687 ✭✭✭✭Muahahaha


    I brought my one inside last winter and as a consequence it never got used, too much hassle to set up, etc. But this winter it is staying outside as I got a cover for it on the Ooni website, £25 with free shipping from the UK site iirc. It is made of good quality material that is weather proof. The oven is made from stainless steel anyway so it shouldnt rust. The cover also doubles as a carry bag if you want to transport it somewhere.

    I Tweeted them to ask for reduced shipping when ordering similar. They asked me to direct message them and they sent me a code for free shipping. :D So try that. ;)

    I have mine stored on a Keter unit with an 80 litre backpack cover over it (£9 on Amazon). So far so good - it's grand there.

    There is an Ooni thread if anyone is interested. ;) Well it's a pizza oven thread dominated by Ooni.

    How long is it taking people to receive their oven?

    I was lucky to have mine dispatched before late-February, but I'm wondering if buying the flour and yeast was a bit over-zealous.

    Ordered 30th November.
    Dispatched 8th December.
    Left Netherlands: 11th December.
    Arrived UK: 14th December.

    Very tempted but one of the kids is coeliac and we have a separate oven for his food in the kitchen
    I would have to get 2 of these and can’t justify that at the moment

    Anyone got any suggestions for homemade versions as I might try and build a double oven outdoors in the spring

    Would you buy a second stone and 500 degree heat proof gloves? Alternatively you could use one side of the stone for the GF pizzas and turn for the rest.

    No way are you going to be able to change the stone when it's heated up. It's kind of warm!


    I'd personally think it would be fine to just cook the gluten free pizza first every time. Everything gets burnt off when it's heating up, there doesn't even be ash left. You can turn the stone before lighting every time you use it. The bottom then gets cleaned while using it. I don't turn mine every time though unless something actually burnt on to it.

    Myself and my wife are Coeliacs!

    Used my fyra last week for the first time, made pizzas with the Caputo Gluten Free Flour... Amazing!

    I'm a coeliac since very young so have never had normal pizza so I can't compare but much better than the frozen pizzas you'd get.

    To the Coeliacs: I have a daughter who is coeliac (+ has Down Syndrome). Pizza is her favourite food. I'm sorry I didn't buy shares in Goodfellas frozen pizza years ago.
    Could someone message me a gf pizza base recipe please?

    Thank you Pipmae and Newtown90. I thought you may say as much! My wife is an Italian coeliac (the cruelty!) and we make pizza and pasta a few times a week. I personally think the Schär Mix B Mix Pane (called Universal in Ireland) is the best flour for GF pizza dough but the Caputo which we tried once was also excellent. The Schär dough cooked in a rectangular pan comes out like a proper Sicilian Nonna pie :) Btw SuperValu is the only supermarket I know if that sells the Schär Universal Flour in the yellow plastic bag.

    Sent you a PM LaLa2004.

    Koda 12" gas.

    Base was lovely and crispy and the crust was nicely aerated, nice air bubbles inside. Have to make sure it warms up well and keep rotating the pizza when its in !

    I have a koda and there are two major factors that directly affect the base. The first is the temperature of the stone - if you don’t wait long enough starting or between pizzas, you’ll end up with a soggy Base.

    The second is the toppings. If you overtop you’ll end up with a soggy centre and often burnt edges. A small scattering is all that’s intended.

    Any of the ooni ovens will hit 430 degrees which is a magic number without burning the flour/semolina on the base

    I agree, I heated ours for a solid half hour to be sure.

    Also agree on the toppings, less is more.

    For sure - 200+ pizzas later and they’re the key things. One other interesting thing is the amount of dough. It’s extremely difficult to get 12” out of 160g that ooni recommends, especially for a beginner. However, if you decided you were going to go 300g you will run into the same issue with overtopping - raw dough at either the centre or the middle of the cornicione.

    Would love a koda 16, but it’s very difficult to handle/manage anything bigger than 12 inches!
