What do you think about the transition from fully stainless steal to powdercoated steel? A Karu 12 will probably still shine after 20 years, while with the 12G I have seen first spots of rust near the fuel opening.

[@rosehillsourdough]

Hey Jens! Pros and cons to both. The stainless was nice but would patina and needed to be riveted together and is a little more difficult to form. The mild steel allows for the addition of hidden fasteners, more formability, and more coating options. I get why they went with the powder coated mild steel option, might have for kept price down too

That plug in….hum….interesting…any info on it yet? Love mine…makes great pizza! I will stay in touch!

[@rosehillsourdough]

Nothing yet! I talked to one of my old engineers there and they have some hints but I couldn’t break him 😂. We’ll have to wait and see!

The circle on the bottom looks like it could be for a rotating stone? Maybe the plug is for control?

[@rosehillsourdough]

@@nathanturner8114 a rotating stone add on accessory might work there (and may explain the circle, could also just be a circle) but even if that was the case I can’t imagine running the control wires in the oven for that. It looks identical to the thermocouple connector on Karu 16. If I had to guess, there’s an imbedded thermocouple somewhere in the oven and that’s how you read the temp. Now what that would be for… we’ll we’ll just have to wait. I hope a digital thermometer!

Having worked at Ooni, very curious if you would pick the Karu 16 or Karu 12G? We are undecided … tempted by the 12G for fuel (wood/charcoal) efficiency, lower price and portability. But the Karu 16 size - bigger pizzas when entertaining - and digital thermometer on the front … 💭🍕

[@rosehillsourdough]

You’ve nailed the selling points perfectly! You can’t go wrong with either! Karu 16 is nice just because the size is so much larger. 12-16 doesn’t seem like a huge jump, but it’s really a lot more room!
