Re: Does your oven have a name?
Funny you should ask....
When my cousin came from italy.. she told me you have to name the oven,, as they often name theirs over there.... So mine is called Big Jack.. after my uncle whose name is Gino.. (my aunt always called him Jack,,dont know why) so the oven is pretty big.. Thus Big Jack -

Re: Does your oven have a name?
No name, but on a few choice occasions I have screamed "YOU *^&%#$@!%&$!!!"
(o.k., so I was actually screaming at myself...for screwing up a pizza 
)

I plan on giving it a name also, once my oven is complete.

The Red Dragon..she is made of Red brick and breaths fire...LOL! It started as a joke but we now call the backyard the Red Dragon Cafe...then bought Red Chef coats...still need to have them emrboidered with the Red Dragon Cafe...but we have been even trying to come up with a logo and can't agree on one design! The name took on a life of its own.
I think Chef Phil misses his days as a professional chef and needed a place to call his own!Check out our blog for a glimpse into our hobbies of home brewing, soda, beer and wine, gardening and most of all cooking in our WFO!

Re: Does your oven have a name?
Early on we named our WFO "Promethesus", although that is his "formal" name. And it is definitely a "he" as opposed to a "she". We have a length of old lime kiln chain as decoration on the front as rememberance of his punishment.

Re: Does your oven have a name?
Mine is commercial M.A.M. 505. My neighbor pulled it home on his flatbed trailer. During the trip, his diesel labored along and he remarked that it was a Big F@#%*&g Oven.
Thusly, it was christened the BFO.Comment

Yes, it would efficiently heat the baking chamber, but I imagine its overall efficiency would be far inferior to that of a masonry oven. The reason for this is that the thermal mass of a masonry oven (in this case, a "white oven") would retain heat for much longer and have the advantage of maintaining an even heat rather than a sudden high heat.Comment
