    Awesome video, Tom. 👌 I think this Ooni oven looks the top tier. Shame it's far out of my price range, but maybe one day 🤞

  • @scotttbolttton
    @scotttbolttton 10 днів тому

    Hey - on my Karu 16 (only ever run on wood) the ceiling of the oven has begun to separate a bit at the front of the fuel hatch. Not too much, but enough to effect the flow of smaller flames - almost like it creates an air leak and flames try to flow out through there. Did you ever experience this, or did they fix it on this new model?

    Looks great. I don’t think I have ever seen a better looking pizza in an oven review video. It seems like you have previously shown that you can minimize soot on the karu 16 when you use quality dry wood and good technique. Is it much different here in the Karu 2? It looks like the larger glass does more to improve visibility than the difference in soot prevention (if there is any).

  • @robintaberner
    @robintaberner 2 місяці тому +1

    Looks a monster. I’m just grateful Ooni hasn’t tried to bring out a 24inch wood fired oven.
    Personally I have always taken Ooni’s claim of heating up in 15 minutes should be taken with a pinch of salt. That’s with an old Ooni 3 and my current 12G. So not a big issue!
    And I’m sorry, does everything have to have an app?

  • @vanJaarsveld

    Is the basket size the same as the 16? The burner, you mention it fits, but is it the recommended by ooni?! Noticed a pro version on the website.

    I love Ooni stuff. Have Karu 16 for 2-3 years and love it. One main thing disappoint me with this Karu 2 pro. I cannot believe that they did not made some changes so you can control gas and flame from front. That is for me main disadvantage from Ooni pizza ovens with some other popular brands. For each pizza i have to go to the back and without seeing flame lower the flame to almost minimum and when it is finished, turn it up to max to continue to heat stone and inside until next pizza. I was really hoping that Ooni will do some change with this in some future models but unfortunately not with Karu 2. I know it is cheaper for them to use same burner so they don’t need to redesign it and also that ppl can reuse it if they already have that burner and just buy new oven. But for sure they could make some mechanism with some gears and addon to existing burner knob so you can control it from the front :(

    • @TomVoyageuk
      @TomVoyageuk  Місяць тому +2

      I kind of agree, but with the gas attachment being removable, i don't know where else it would go. If the gas dial is a big issue for you, maybe consider a full gas model? like the Koda 16 or Koda 2 Max, with gas dial on the side

  • @ravender730

    • @TomVoyageuk
      @TomVoyageuk  2 місяці тому +1

      Thanks for the comment Peter, Its not 100% clean no, im not sure with heat that high its achievable to have no effect on the glass, but what i can tell you is its much better than the previous model. I have used both now, and have less of a problem with the Karu2Pro. What also helps is using kiln dried hard wood, mixed with charcoal and have a very hot oven. If you use cheap wood it creates more nasty black some

      I personally would always spend a bit more to get the latest model, even if I don’t use all the features. However if you don’t use the temp control and want to save some money, then the Karu 16 is still a great pizza oven!

    • @TomVoyageuk
      @TomVoyageuk  Місяць тому

      Yes, just do it before it's fully proofed. Bare in mind the dough will need to thaw for 12 hours or so, in which time it will begin to proof again, so factor in this time

      @@TomVoyageuk they could make a 24 inch karu with the same height as the karu 2 pro, so instead of it being too tall, it would be a stretched version of the karu, the koda 2 max was poorly executed since it was intended for being placed on a permanent area, they could have gone all out as they stuck to nonexistent constraints.

    Hi Tom, hope your well mate, I don’t agree with you saying it’s unbiased, you get a kick back from the links right? Which I’m all for by the way, it’s hard out their on YT, but naturally you want people to buy the oven as theirs profit involved, and I own a Ooni, anything to get people into pizza im all for it, 👍🏻

    • @TomVoyageuk
      @TomVoyageuk  2 місяці тому +2

      I get a small percentage of any orders that come through links, but by saying unbiased what I mean is I don’t accept money from companies to review products, I don’t allow the company to have an input on the views I express, and the content doesn’t need to be approved by anyone before posting. I know what you’re saying, but the most important thing for me is that my Chanel remains independent, so I can express my true experiences. Either way, thank you for the comment and thank you also for checking out my video! There will be more to come soon!

I’m jealous of the space you get in these compared to my karu 12. It seems their thermometers are fairly inaccurate but that wouldn’t matter to me either given I have a handheld one like you.
