    Re: New (2nd) build in Brisbane

    G'day
    That looking pretty good.
    The 20 mm difference between hearth and stand looks to have come out at more like 10 mm, which of course is nothing. I know you wanted nil but it looks pretty damn good from the pics.

      Thanks yeah I am pretty happy with how its come together now.

      Will be finishing the lighting this weekend, floor tiling gets done Wed-Fri and then its just firing the oven and painting it.

      Though I also need to clean my block work under the oven and respray the lower flue as it got some scratches getting the ceiling plate installed.

        So I realised yesterday that it was about time I started my curing fires.

        Got a good fire going and then something strange happened.

        The temperature pretty much sky rocketed without me even trying.
        Outer dome stayed cool to the touch.
        Next thing I know the interior dome top temp hit 650c and the dome was cleared.
        At this stage the outer dome was slightly warm, the same as my old oven after it had been cured.

        tldr; My oven was already cured without needing any fires.

        I also found it seemed to get hotter easier than my last one.
        Either going 40" down to 32" makes a big difference or maybe my new oven is more efficient.
        Sometimes I do wonder though how accurate my IR temperature gun is.

        I don't see any point lighting any more curing fires, I'd just be wasting wood - so I'll do some trial pizzas this Friday, paint it this weekend and then that following Friday will be the first big pizza event.

          First test run cooking in the wood fired oven for my parents and sister yesterday. I am very pleased with the ovens performance, the pizzas came out fantastic with some beautiful leoparding.

          I painted the dome today. Tiling is now finished. Installed the fan yesterday.

          Will post some pictures tomorrow showing everything finished.

            Looks good! I expect that you will be like the rest of us and have probably eaten your last franchise pizza and your last supermarket pizza.

            Congratulations.
            Cheers ......... Steve

                My response should really be 'duh' I suppose. The title of the thread should be a little clue eh?
