Hi from Ontario Canada

Hi, glad to join the group. I'm about to start to build my first pizza oven. Going to build a 36in Pompeii oven. First question, lol can I use a low level firebrick 2 1/2 thick or do I need medium grade? Thanks Roger

Hi Roger!

From Southern Ontario - the Hammer! Just finished the footings and about to build foundation - excited to start as well!
Roger, I found the forum and other research suggests the best is the medium grade firebrick. The heat maxes in it are Goldilocks - not too hot, not too thin!
Go with medium and you'll be "just right!"

Good luck on your build - I'll be posting my stuff soon - I'll look forward to following my fellow Ontarian!

All the best!
