How to choose the perfect pizza oven?

Choosing the pizza oven may not be as easy as you might think at first, in fact you have to keep in mind numerous factors and elements that obviously depend on the use you wants to make this device.

Resistance

Many of these pizza ovens take advantage of the double resistance technology, very often circular in shape, which in addition to cooking evenly the foods contained inside the compartment, it also allows cooking in unison from above and below. Sometimes the resistance is not present in the lower part where it is possible to find the…

Refractory Stone

As anticipated, this particular base is found in ovens with only one resistance and allows cooking distributed evenly over its entire surface, even creating a crunchy crust. The presence of this stone also lowers costs, so pay close attention to the solutions that include it.

Portholes

Some of these pizza ovens are equipped with a porthole in the upper part, a feature simple which, however, allows you to constantly monitor the cooking phases of the food. The presence of a porthole avoids opening the oven continuously, and therefore, dissipating the heat contained inside.

Capacity

Obviously if your aim is to obtain a valid alternative to oven, this is the key point for you. The capacity of this type of product is an essential factor, because although all of them are born with the purpose of cooking pizza, many of these proposals are able to contain whole trays, and therefore turn into real electric ovens. So pay close attention to the images and internal capacity when reported.

Portability

Although it is strange to talk about it at a time like this, we still have to hope that the restrictions will go away in the future and then it will be possible to return to move. In circumstances such as second homes by the sea or camping, the electric oven is an excellent alternative to the fixed, small, practical one that allows you to have a quick dish like pizza in a few minutes.

Time saved

“Turn on the oven while it takes a while to heat up”. Here, with pizza ovens you will be able to forget this sentence! In fact, these devices are perfectly able to heat up in a few minutes and prepare even less delicious dishes with a tasty and crunchy flavor, like in a wood oven.

Simple controls

If with the oven traditional it is important to control the temperature, the time, and looking out to see the state of the dishes becomes a fixed occupation, with pizza ovens these things do not happen. In fact, thanks to their simplified control panel that allows you to perfectly adjust cooking, you will never get burnt or too hard foods.

Cleanliness

Last, but not least , one of the greatest advantages that you have by purchasing this type of product is undoubtedly the cleaning after using them. Many of these electric ovens are made from special non-stick materials, so as to avoid creating annoying stains from dripping or grease, and also facilitate cleaning times.
