Hi I'm currently doing a cob oven myself,in my research I found that you need insulation under the floor,you can use wine bottles ,I've used perlite cement,this helps keep the heat in the oven,I'm also rendering mine with perlite cement,love that you have the kids involved .hope it goes well.
i have wanted one of these for years..my husband was going to make me one. but he got sick was unable to do it. he was going to teach me. but he passed away.. so im on my own. im going to try it this coming ul summer.
It's fun to watch you enjoying your creativity and including your son in all the magic. These are the memories he will carry with him as the best days of his life with his dad.
This is gonna sound weird, but I actually love the rain in the beginning of this video. It's calming to listen to. lol. Also, stepping in the clay looked relaxing.
I learned from Townsends too! We got our sand:clay ratio off so need to build another at our house but we made one with our kids group at church and baked in it and it seems good. :)
Watched your videos last night. I admire the work you put into your oven. Its a great looking oven But the one thing that I noticed was you used regular cement pavers. You might have been better of using fire brick. Because the pavers will crumble under heat. Now they might have already done that but. I watched a video of a guy I think in South America. Well he used clay for the floor? If your floor did burn out. You could clean out the old floor and lay in clay. Using a trowel to smooth it out?.
It was nice to see that you had a minion and his friend to help with the cob and initial setup. Great memories for him and you. Thanks for sharing. Cheers.
i enjoy your videos, thanks for the tip about flattening to the thickness needed for the smooth layer thus sinking the grass/straw 👍👍hello from Michigan
Thanks man, I'd seen townsend's video but it was really useful to see another build of the same style but with subtle differences and some more detail. Cheers.
Thanks for the feedback, Lane. I’ve been having fun with the cob oven. I’ll do an update after I’ve used it for a few more months. Are you going to build one?
@Old timer hot shot i agree , that is why i follow Green shorts he uses whatever he has around to do his projects, but if i build a cob oven it will hopefully be a long term installation, just doing my research to prevent premature failure
I enjoy your vids!! And I did make a cob oven last year. But I want to move it and upgrade it!! Is it possible to reuse the cob once it has been fired????????
Hello! I´ve not watched your entire videos by now, but could you tell me, have you ever tried a cobb-perlite mixture for building an oven or something else? Greetings from Germany!
The round shape of an oven like this, and the proportions of oven-to-door size, cause it to draw air through the door and expel excess smoke the same way. No chimney is needed.
I’m not sure. This oven actually drafts pretty well. There is quite a thermal layer between the bottom half and top half of the door opening. The bottom half pulling air in and the top half venting smoke and heat. The real brick pizza ovens have a chimney, but it is usually just above the door, so lower than the top of the dome. There are so cool videos about that on UA-cam. It might inform your design decisions. Thank you for watching.
ua-cam.com/video/BdsJIC406Fg/v-deo.html I like this kind of hand made oven. Here it's done in south of France but I sent you the English version. Start watching at minute 3:20

Looks great. Now that you have had it for a while how did you protect it from cracking? Would like to build one, but want to know if you treat it from caving in or cracking? Thanks.
Hi Andrew. I put a roof over this oven. A few other options would be to cover it with a thin layer of cement or seal it with boiled linseed oil. Even with the roof, it has cracked in some of the thinner areas, like the connection between the door arch and the main dome. I think that is just part of working with this earthen material...it is going to crack. I'll just keep filling the cracks with cobb until the oven has a massive failure. Then I'll tear it down a rebuild. Circle of life. :-) Thanks for watching.
Remember every time you fire it, start with a small fire then once warm you can build up the fire. Indian tandoor ovens are fired the same way to keep it from cracking due to temperature fluctuations.
Thank you for your question. From my perspective the benefit of a door is simply being able to seal in the heat when the oven is being used to bake. I modeled this oven after one I saw on another UA-cam channel. They used the igloo type door, So I have as well. LOL. The extension created by the door channel does perhaps help with the thermal layering on the airflow in and out. That is just a guess on my part though. Thank you for watching.
There is no chimney. It draws cool air in the bottom half of the door and exhausts out the top half. There is a very defined divide between the two layers. It’s cool to watch. Thank you for watching.
I think it is pretty forgiving. I think I did 2:1 sand to clay. But, there are some good videos on UA-cam that get into the specifics. Thank you for watching.
Hi Peter. Usually there isn't a chimney in an earthen bread oven. The oven is heated with the door open, allowing the smoke out and a draft in. Once the desired temp is reached, the fire is removed and then door is closed for baking with the ambient heat stored in the mass of the oven. It is more common to have a chimney in a pizza oven. Thanks for watching.
There was a guy who made a hybrid 'rocket stove-oven' and he made his base layer out of cob. I think he inset a few fire bricks, but the outter rim on the inside was cob. He basically had a fire box below the stove that vented up into the cob oven with a ceramic plate over it to disperse the hot gasses. So basically if he wanted to use the oven as a stove to just heat up water or soup he could, or just keep firing the thing as you would an oven. And since the actual fire box was not in the oven itself, he didn't have to rake out embers, so the oven stayed much cleaner
Hi Bobby. I haven't made bread in a while. It's got a few cracks around to door, but the oven still works fine. I've got a roof over it to protect it from the rain. Thanks for all your comments.
GOOD MORNING FROM CALIFORNIA....HOPE ALL IS WELL..I VIEW THE TOWNSTEAD UTUBE CHANEL, SO I THOUGHT I SHOULD LOOK WHAT YOU HAVE POSTED..THANK YOU..ONE QUESTION TOWNSTEAD USED TARP FOR MIXING THE COB, I THOUGHT YOU SAID SHOWER CURTAIN..OR WAS IT TARP?? THANK YOU AGAIN IF YOU DO ANSWER THIS QUESTION...POSTED SO CA
GREAT VIDEO .. i think i'll build one myself now . But i won't use concrete pavers for floor .. i think clay bricks is a MUST in that case . Thank you for the great teaching .
Note to others using this video as a guide. Please do not put cob as tge first layer. Put pure clay (i.e without added straw). In the second layer use cob. In tge first (inside) layer, direct fire on cob is useless as the straw will burn away and the structural integrity will suffer. Also, make sure you insulate the floor of the oven, so that the wood base (table top) does not burn away. I am certain the medium to long term failure of this oven is not part of this video.
Thank you for your feedback. Good tips to supplement my rookie mistakes. I haven’t used the oven enough to determine it’s lifespan. Thanks for watching.
Hi Nick. This cob oven is on the small-side for pizza. It was made primarily for bread. I do plan to make a proper pizza oven soon. Thanks for watching.
Well, for nailing stuff. :-) Seriously, though, the big nailer is for framing. Thick wood, 2x4s. The 18 gauge nailer is for trim work. Still 2.5 inch nails, but much thinner. They won’t hold 2x4s. Thanks for watching.
I'm glad somebody caught that. Lol! I loved the A-Team, maybe that's why I love building stuff. Maybe I weld up and old school bus and vanquish some bad dudes. :-)
I live in Mass. We have clay. Suggest digging in wet, marshy areas. Although if you can't access wet areas, dig deep enough in your own property and you may have some there.
Impressive but man seems like a LOT of work... Are you burning pine by chance? I sure hope not... For $879 and a couple clicks, I had a Terraforno SS Wood-Fired Oven delivered within days and I’ve been cooking awesome pizzas ever since... I love it!
CBDank USA yes. A lot of work, but was also a lot of fun. And my labor was probably more than what you spent to get your oven, but my mission here is to make stuff. :-) I am using scrap lumber for fuel, but only for bread (the fire comes out before baking). I am working on a pizza oven and will use hardwoods for that. Thanks for the feedback. Enjoy your oven.
Merhaba. Nasıl yaptıklarını görmek için çevrilmiş birkaç videom vardı. Türkçe altyazıları izlemeyi daha keyifli hale getirdi mi? Çeviri doğru muydu? (Bunu Google Translate ile yaptım).
He seems like a great kid and I think he has a great dad. Its human to make mistakes and its human to overlook something now and then, and I'm sure you made up for it.
Sorry! can you demonstrate it in action? either you put the fire or the bread dough, there is only 1 compartment. If you make it hot inside, then remove the burnt materials (wood), before it's taken out, the inside is cold already. I think it is not an oven for baking anything, only for keeping the food smoked or just warm before being served. When a dough sits in hot place and grows, it's prepping, it may be cooked, or not. Usually there are 2 compartments for the oven, fire below, on higher level some cast iron plate to put your raw bread on. Yet, where is the air feed and vent out tubing?
Hello Old Soul. The mass of the oven holds heat to bake the bread. I did a live stream (it's long) baking some bread. That will show the oven in action. Thanks for watching.
Thank you for such a quick response, I would appreciate the link to bread baking, dear @@GreenShortzDIY , meantime I think this is the way to do the oven, at least there is a smoke escape provided ua-cam.com/video/0j6ps1AUURQ/v-deo.html
@@oldsoul6421 late reply, but these are 2 different ovens. One you can actually build no matter where you are, the other one demands a more.. modern approach. These ovens, as seen in this video, absolutely holds heat to bake bread and cook other food as well. You can also use it as a dryer for berries and mushrooms. The video you linked to, while looking great, it will also cost a fortune in insulation, special bricks, etc. It is a brick oven, not a cob oven.. 2 different ovens.. no comaprison really. Meaning to say.. you can not build a cob oven out of brick.. you need cob.
hope you NEVER cook on the floor of the oven with that concrete as one of its components is LIME something that is not good to have in your diet at all ever
actually the ideal ratio is the golden ratio ... oven height is 1 and the door height is .618 of that .... yup that's right 61.8% of the overall height so you dont have to install a smoke stack ... 60% will actually allow more ash to be forced down back into your food ... best is 61 to 62% if you dont want to be super accurate
you are better off burning out the interior supports after the cob has dried sufficiently as the heat will finish the cure and heat the oven ... the method you are using is good for a short term use oven not a long term one and is prone to cracking and spalling over time... the best method is to make a basket for the interior oven and a barrel for the tunnel ... then cover with cloth or paper and finish the outside with sand then cob about 3inches thick let it dry about half way and then add a layer of stones about fist size or double fist size and cob again about 3 inches and let dry for 2 days ... the stones are your thermal mass on the top and sides of the oven and help stabilise it for long term use ... on day 3 build a small kindling fire to drive out the last of the moisture from the interior and force it outwards ... keep it small and stoked for approximately 4 to 6 hours ... then build it up by half ... for another 4 to 6 hours ... then finally stoke it to light the basket and barrel if they have not burned off completely and burn the paper or cloth off the interior .. the next day the oven is ready for use ... . before people say rude and uncalled for remarks ... I have built this type of oven for the last 40 years and this is what works the best and lasts the longest
btw the sand clay mixture ratio is also 1 to 1.618 ... 1 part sand to 1.618 parts clay for good solid red clay like you have ... and dry grass not green ... ... also salt the water for the exterior cob as it will pull the water from the interior into the exterior cob and help seal the to layers around the stones you added to the middle ... as a thermal mass ... the best sand sand to use is actually granite or marble dust from a head stone maker ... as it will bind with the clay better and add a good thermal mass to the cob as well .. it also has the added benefit of being jagged and not smoothed like beach or stream sand is ... this allows the dust to bite into the clay and keep cracking down much better . the cob should be like a dough when you install it .. and smooth the outside with wet hands AFTER you have applied it all .. NEVER stop adding cob on any layer until it is done .. no matter how hard you try and patch you will get cracking related to those joints ... it is just like pouring concrete once you start a layer you cant stop until the complete layer is done ... if you stop between layers cover the whole thing in plastic ... and make sure it is very close fit all over the oven ... toss some loose sand on it to keep it in place ...
Hi I'm currently doing a cob oven myself,in my research I found that you need insulation under the floor,you can use wine bottles ,I've used perlite cement,this helps keep the heat in the oven,I'm also rendering mine with perlite cement,love that you have the kids involved .hope it goes well.

Hello! I´ve not watched your entire videos by now, but could you tell me, have you ever tried a cobb-perlite mixture for building an oven or something else? Greetings from Germany!

How many bags of sand and clay would you say building an oven this size requires?
Would building an oven with a flue allow the fire to burn hotter? It could then be blocked off with a cap to keep the heat in.

GreenShortz DIY got it! Thank you 🙏
Great tutorial!
Thank you, Wasili. Thanks for watching.
Kool. I'm wondering why no one in any of the videos I've watched on these ovens uses cob for the floor.
It'll cook more evenly on Stone. But using concrete I don't think it's wise concrete has lead in it
I've been a Concrete Finisher I read that concrete is the new asbestos so I would not use concrete.
There was a guy who made a hybrid 'rocket stove-oven' and he made his base layer out of cob. I think he inset a few fire bricks, but the outter rim on the inside was cob. He basically had a fire box below the stove that vented up into the cob oven with a ceramic plate over it to disperse the hot gasses. So basically if he wanted to use the oven as a stove to just heat up water or soup he could, or just keep firing the thing as you would an oven. And since the actual fire box was not in the oven itself, he didn't have to rake out embers, so the oven stayed much cleaner
Do you still use this oven?

you are better off burning out the interior supports after the cob has dried sufficiently as the heat will finish the cure and heat the oven ... the method you are using is good for a short term use oven not a long term one and is prone to cracking and spalling over time... the best method is to make a basket for the interior oven and a barrel for the tunnel ... then cover with cloth or paper and finish the outside with sand then cob about 3inches thick let it dry about half way and then add a layer of stones about fist size or double fist size and cob again about 3 inches and let dry for 2 days ... the stones are your thermal mass on the top and sides of the oven and help stabilise it for long term use ...
on day 3 build a small kindling fire to drive out the last of the moisture from the interior and force it outwards ... keep it small and stoked for approximately 4 to 6 hours ... then build it up by half ... for another 4 to 6 hours ... then finally stoke it to light the basket and barrel if they have not burned off completely and burn the paper or cloth off the interior .. the next day the oven is ready for use ...
.
before people say rude and uncalled for remarks ... I have built this type of oven for the last 40 years and this is what works the best and lasts the longest
btw the sand clay mixture ratio is also 1 to 1.618 ... 1 part sand to 1.618 parts clay for good solid red clay like you have ... and dry grass not green ... ... also salt the water for the exterior cob as it will pull the water from the interior into the exterior cob and help seal the to layers around the stones you added to the middle ... as a thermal mass ... the best sand sand to use is actually granite or marble dust from a head stone maker ... as it will bind with the clay better and add a good thermal mass to the cob as well .. it also has the added benefit of being jagged and not smoothed like beach or stream sand is ... this allows the dust to bite into the clay and keep cracking down much better
.
the cob should be like a dough when you install it .. and smooth the outside with wet hands AFTER you have applied it all .. NEVER stop adding cob on any layer until it is done .. no matter how hard you try and patch you will get cracking related to those joints ... it is just like pouring concrete once you start a layer you cant stop until the complete layer is done ... if you stop between layers cover the whole thing in plastic ... and make sure it is very close fit all over the oven ... toss some loose sand on it to keep it in place ...
AT FIRST I THOUGHT YOU WERE A PROFESSIONAL, BUT ITS CLEAR TO SEE THAT YOUR NOT...
I am who I am. Thanks for watching.
A-Team, the Hulk and Knight Rider...good times...
Yeeeesssss! Don’t forget MacGuyver. My personal favorite. Thanks for watching.
Your oven looks like professor dumble dwarf hat and every Pizza that you making it is going to smell like kids feet
