Commercial Pizza Ovens

Commercial pizza ovens are designed exclusively for use in restaurants, pizzerias and bakeries. They are reliable and efficient in terms of performance. Some of the establishments have ovens which have been used for more than ten years and are still in use. The oven's weight and thermal mass are in such a way that they are able to withstand the extremely high temperatures throughout the day, every day. The ovens are made of very thick 3-inch high tempered aluminum. The oven can reach about and retain a temperature of about 800 degrees Fahrenheit. When used in pizzerias and restaurants the ovens can produce over 200 pizzas in an hour. They can retain a temperature of about 500 degrees Fahrenheit. This is very useful because the heat can be retained overnight which helps them to start up easily the next day and save time. Wood is the source of heating for most of these kinds of ovens. The modern pizzas consume about 30% less wood for heating purposes. Most of the commercial ovens have cast iron doors for maximum space availability and heat retention for cooking more number of pizzas at a time. Apart from pizzas large pieces of meat can also be cooked on these ovens. Some of the different types of these ovens include the brick ovens, pizza deck ovens, pizza convection ovens and conveyor ovens.

Brick Pizza Ovens

These are also known as wood fired pizza ovens. Such kinds of ovens are for those who love to cook pizzas in a traditional manner. Cooking in brick ovens can give your pizzas a traditional taste and country feel. The wood fired ovens are mostly built of clay adobe or refractory fire bricks to retain heat for a long time. These ovens have openings with trap doors in the front. In some types, the heat is well contained without the doors in the front. The chefs use long spatulas made of wood for checking the pizzas. The spatulas are also known as peels. The peel is used to lift the pizzas and examine the bottom to find out if they are golden brown in color and well cooked. He also checks the top portion of the pizzas for the melted cheese. When they are ready the pizzas are removed from the ovens and served hot after cutting them into required pieces. These ovens can be built in places where you want to use them. The source of fire is wood. The ovens usually utilize gentle fire that keeps burning continuously without burning the pizzas but cooking them perfectly the way you want.
