    There are a few things that are missing in this pizza construction to make it really efficient. One is that the structure needs to be cured with a first fire before adding the insulation and render layers. Second is that after the chicken wire, a layer of vermiculite concrete needs to be added before the render. In this way you will ensure that your oven will reach the required 400 centigrade to cook a pizza in 1 minute and not waste fuel (wood) unnecessarily.

      Depends if you soak the bricks before building or not. Some soak the bricks to keep them from drying out the mortar too quickly while other don't soak the bricks and thus don't have nearly as moist firebricks.
      Of course it would be smart to move slowly either way, as really hot and wet fire bricks can lead to massive cracking or explosive bricks.

    Apart from all awesomeness that is James May in this video, can someone explain the purpose of the cottonlike + chicken wire and last rendering layer. Is it for warm isolation purposes or basically just for design? What is the downside of making a pizza oven and keep it as it is @ 2:14 and if so, is it even worth making it?

      Its kao wool insulation. It helps keep the heat inside the oven so it works more efficiently.

      @@fandangobrandango7864 I'm sure some of us put their penis in a pizza every now and then, but this doesn't mean it tastes good and everyone should do it. haha! Howeverrrrrr...many Italian pizza makers produce all kinds of pizzas this days for you American and British tourists to enjoy it. For your own amusement next time you eat egg on a pizza in Italy ask your pizza maker if he would eat that. Please film his reaction and upload it on youtube. 😁
