I picked up this peel on Amazon last month but it was cheaper. I think I paid about 12 quid for it.

Want to get a few of the accessories so if anyone has a referral code I would be grateful

I’m losing interest in this company, emailed them on Monday with a general query and no response, not sure id like that if I really needed them.
Bad form

I just noticed this one on Amazon has been reduced from £20 to £12.50, with Prime it works out at 12.22 euro because the VAT has been taken off.

They have mailed me my second pizza oven a week ago after the first one went AWOL. It is now also AWOL.
I'm not sure what the heck is going on with them

My daughter messaged about the referral code and said it is not valid. Wonder what they are up to

ucd.1985 · 01-03-2021 5:31pm

Would be very grateful for a referral code.

Thanks in advance.

Pete123456 · 01-03-2021 5:38pm

I don’t think the referral codes are available anymore. I tried to dig one out a few posts back and it doesn’t seem to work. Sorry!

04-03-2021 1:27pm

Actually, scrap the below idea. They add taxes and duties of 91 euro when you get to the checkout. Then delivery.

I’ve just spotted the ooni Karu on selfridges Irish website for 295 euro. It’s 329 on ooni website.

Let me know if anyone you're buying an oven and I'll see can I help you out.

Northern Monkey · 05-03-2021 8:09am

This code worked earlier in the week for 10% off. I’m not sure if it makes a difference but it was on the UK site.

GW10%-11201

The koda 16 is in stock in meadows and byrne. They have a 15% discount code with the code members15 which brings it down to around €430

I'm thinking of going for a Koda 12, they look like they're on sale in Rathwood for €299. After looking around I think that's a good price or is there a better deal elsewhere?

This is our first pizza oven so I'm not going to splurge on the Koda 16 deal at Meadows & Byrne just yet.

One of the cheaper places, just be aware it'll be mid May by the time it comes in at best. Ooni themselves are end of March. Painfully slow

The discount code needs to be in caps. I just ordered this. We’ve been waiting since January 17 for the Koda and will be waiting another 2 months - madness. Just cancelled that order. great price from M & B too.

Hi all
Wondering if anyone has a referral code.

Looking at the pro oven but at the price it would be nice to get the discount.

Thanks

saggycaggy · 06-03-2021 12:16pm

I was thinking of the koda 16 or pro for my husband as a surprise for his 40th, should i bite the bullet and get the koda16-the 15% off is so tempting!!! Birthday not until August.

Same here - now I'm wavering towards the Koda 12 (as price is good too - €299) or do I go for 16 at that deal? We haven't had a pizza oven before so I'm not sure if we'll use it enough to justify the higher price.

We havnt had one either - but he loves making pizzas from scratch. I joined a few ooni Facebook pages this week and people make all sorts on it, I received a curry recipe! People seem to use it all year round too.

Definitely buy it now if you want to be any ways sure of delivery before August. Sounds mad doesn't it?!

Muahahaha · 06-03-2021 8:12pm

One thing I would say about 16 inch v 12 inch is it is a tricky enough skill to properly hand stretch out a dough ball to a 12 inch pizza base dont mind doing it to 16 inches which is a fair big bigger. A 16 inch pizza only sounds a little bit bigger than a 12 inch but its actually not, its almost twice the size of one ( there is 113 square inches for a 12 inch pizza compared to 201 square inches for a 16 inch one).

Also if you go 16 inch then you'll need a 16 inch pizza peel to launch and lift up pizzas, theres not as many of those around as your standard 12 inch ones.

In short I wouldnt go 16 inch unless you already know you can stretch dough balls out to that size without ripping them or having trouble with them. If the worst came to the worst you could get the rolling pin out but then you dont get that lovely airy crust that rises up in the oven. But to be honest if you really need huge amounts of pizza then making two 12 inch ones would be a lot easier for the novice pizza maker than making a single 16 inch one. They cook in under two minutes so its not like theres any hanging around as they cook quicker than you can prepare one.

Sorry i looked back at the FB post and the guy sent me a pic of a tandoori chicken curry dish he made in the ooni and said he got the receipe from a Waitross recipe card, I can ask for the receipe. It's the UK page i was on, i didn't know there was an Irish one nor did i know there was a pizza forum here:p
Thanks!!

Thanks so much for that info @Muahahaha. Because we haven't used a pizza oven before and I'm not sure how often we'll use it, I went ahead and ordered one from Rathwood.com this evening. (I do like to cook and we were supposed to be headed to Italy on holidays this summer but that's not looking likely, I figured we should get this instead :pac:). I ordered the Koda 12 for €299 (it's selling on Ooni and most places for €349) and I got the cover for it also which will be delivered in early/mid May. Now I did have to pay €39 for shipping so it almost cancels out the savings as Ooni deliver for free BUT I had two reasons for doing this: 1) we're having work done on the garden in April so I don't plan on doing too much out there then + we have a bbq if the weather is fab and 2) Rathwood have EasyPay option so my total was €377 but I only paid €126 today and I can pay the balance however/whenever I want over the next 8 weeks. This option might appeal to others.

So now that I have that ordered, what accessories do I need to get to start: a peel (thinking I might get a wood one and a long-handled stainless steel one), dough cutter / scraper, infrared thermometer. I've been looking on Amazon for these. Anything else or any advice?

Well we haven't anyways. We got ours in October, so it hasn't been used much so far. We fired it up for the first time this year last weekend and holy moly, the pizza cooked in the oven isn't a patch on the Karu! We use a mix of wood and coal.

cloneslad · 07-03-2021 2:54pm

My Ooni Koda gas oven arrived on Thursday. My gf ordered it for me in November. The peel arrived in early January.

To be fair to them they kept in contact with her throughout and had let her know at the outset we wouldn't have it for Christmas.

I had been making pizzas with a pizza stone on the BBQ for the last year and half but this pizza oven is a whole other level.

The Koda is incredibly tidy looking and I wouldn't go for any bigger than the 12 inch unless you really need it. As someone mentioned above, you then have to make the dough for a 16 inch and it can be tricky enough making it for the 12 inch, especially when not using a mixer

Get the steel peel for putting the pizza in and taking it out if the oven. You won't need a wooden one, you can just use wooden chopping boards to put it on.

You most likely won't need the thermometer, you'll know when it's hot by just being beside it.

I just take the silicone end off one of my spatulas and use it as a scraper to take the dough out of the bowl when it is sticking, though having a scraper would prob be preferred by most.

epopnomis · 07-03-2021 4:52pm

anyone else have issues with pizza sticking to metal peel when launching the pizzas. its hit or miss with me and normally half the ingredients end up in the oven in a blaze. thinking its the metal peel. dough is 65% hydration.

Thanks for posting, I've just ordered the Koda 12 from Rathwood too, I didn't get the cover..just the oven. Delivery was €16 for me? Off to order some accesssories now from Aliexpress seeing as I have plenty of time to wait before it arrives!

My advice is plenty of semolina on the peel before you put your dough on it. The easiest way when starting is to semolina the peel and then put your stretched dough on it. Then sauce and top it while giving it a jiggle every so often so it doesn’t stick. Do this just before you want to launch into the oven and don’t hang around. It should be very easy to get in without sticking then.

The alternative is to use a wooden peel or board - these can be got quite cheaply also. This helps but dough can stick to wood also, so some semolina still required

scarepanda · 07-03-2021 5:56pm

I give the peel a light dusting of flour before putting the stretched dough onto it and then keep giving the dough a wiggle as I'm building the pizza. And it's really important that you've got good movement right before launching.

We just had pizza today, second time for the ooni in 2021! Jez it was good

we'd be hard pressed to go back to the regular oven even on a not so nice day!

Glad that info was helpful to you. You're right about the delivery - I just checked and if I ordered the oven alone it would be 16.95 to deliver but as I had the cover it jacked up to €39. Delivery for the cover alone was €10.95...I'm going to contact them to see what's up with the inflated delivery cost & if they'll adjust it. Thanks for that!

Bluenile1 · 07-03-2021 6:07pm

Hello I would be interested in a referral code for ooni if anyone has one as I think it gives 10% off. And it might come a little sooner than rathwood may delivery.

Yeah all those things are good to have. Ive an infra red thermometer but dont really use it now as I know from testing temperatures that once the oven is pre heated with gas for 15 minutes it is up to around 430-450c which I find is the perfect temp to launch at. But an IR thermometer is handy to have at the start so you can get to know how temps are behaving during pre heating. Its also handy to know that the oven isnt too hot as when it gets closer to 480-500 degrees thats the point that the pizza base can burn really quick. They are only around 15 quid on Amazon so good to have when you're starting out.

Make sure the pizza can move before launch, dust the peel with flour or semolina (not too much) before putting on the pizza on it and if you feel it sticking then try raising the dough and blowing under it. Some people get a wooden peel, or there are metal pizza plates you can get and just throw them in the oven with the Pizza on top.

Hi just to say GW10%-11201 which was posted earlier have 10% off on ooni main site. Free shipping. I ordered the koda 12 plus accessories due to be shipped end March

saggycaggy · 07-03-2021 9:35pm

Is there any disadvantage from ordering an Ooni from Meadows and Byrne rather than the Ooni website?
Can't see anything about warranty on the M&B page.
Thanks

Blizzard · 08-03-2021 11:39am

Just curious, does anyone have links to the items--peels, etc.--they ordered on Wish or Aliexpress? I've never ordered from either and as my oven won't be delivered until May I have ample time for delivery. I normally order stuff like this from Amazon but with Brexit, anything over €22 has extra charges now I believe. Thanks!
