Burner should be on the side, left, not the rear. Helps to provide pressure which adds lift to the crust. Knowing how to form the pizza properly is also another Key to good crust development.
Very impressive. Would love to see you convert an 3 burner gas grill into a dedicated pizza oven. Bit easier for folks to replicate and allow for repurposing of older grills.
Using the mild steel you'll notice in a few months of use it will start to rust and then flake when it's reheated. Make sure that the oven is good and hot and is done popping and flaking off the slag from the mild steel before you start cooking. This was a problem that I encountered with mine.
Husband here. Please share your ideas on a propane/woodfired version!!! I enjoy that wood flavor. Ima modifyin my little steel $200 ebay wood pizza job for propane. I liked the steel oven for future mig/tig weldability/mods. I like propane for quick temps.
Would like to see you tackle a ribbon burner gas setup and add insulation. Would be cool to see just how efficient you could make these because the wastage is about the biggest thing stopping me. It’s fine if you’re selling them but usually family only needs few pizzas. Hard to justify the cost Vs simply ordering.
While some ovens like the ooni heat from the back, side heating is superior. Side heating creates a rotational heat that circulates staying in the oven and provides a specific pressure that helps the pizza expand while cooking. All of the best ovens place the heat source on the left, when looking at the oven door.
Interesting point. With the heating source coming from the left and following the dome to deflect on the stone surface …. I wonder if you’re better off without the bottom burners. I just wonder what specs (stainless steel pipe and orifice hole) of a single left sided burner is needed?
I been watching your video for few months and now I decided to make a pizza oven with some of your ideas and some from others. I will be making my pizza oven drum, fire bricks and full insulation. thanks for the burner idea.
So far I would put this diy gas pizza oven Ver 3.0 at #1 on the internet. If you ever decide to do a Ver 4.0 I would love to see burners like you have under the stone on the inside of the oven along one side and the back side of the oven. Keep up the great work and thank you for sharing 💕👍
I nice build I want to do the same thing soon , just wondering what brand and model number is you slip roller ? I want to purchase it thank you for posting this video
I was going to build one! I looked on my patio there was a smoker, and 2 dome grills one was gas. So i said to myself its STUPID TO BUY OR BUILD ONE. I'am very happy with the kettle grill > it also make some of the world best pizza with in 20 mins he hee all i use is pizza pans! and a pizza peel! The grill season the pizza pans, they will last for ever ~ So its silly for me to buy or make a pizza oven 😆 How many of you got the perfect pizza oven? all ready! Just setting on YOUR PATIO ? 🤣👍🔥
@@stevedenisep1411 These are the dimensions but you may have to adjust as you are building: Outside shell dimensions 22" x 18" x 12", that translates to the individual pieces of stainless to be 22" x 36" long for the arch before rolling. Inner liner is about 1" smaller so size accordingly. Opening is 3.5" high x 14" wide. All the sheet metal was 22 gauge 304 stainless. The stone I used was 14" x 16". Hope this helps!
Hey Andrew. Love the design, welding and vid quality. Wondering if you have make a pizza with the top burner only. I love the precision of both burners, but lazy me wonders if there is 700f in just the top burner, and if it will heat even. Might be some cool content if your interested. Let me know if you go for it. Thnx
Nice build but I don't really see a huge benefit in the bottom burner.. Things I would have done different: bigger entry door and a cover, the entire dome does not need to be so big especially if your opening is so small and finally I would have not added a bottom burner and isolated the bottom and sides with high temp insolation. Anyway that's just my preference!
Great job! Ooni should be worried! I’m thinking you’re on the opposite side of our beautiful country (BC vs NL) so you probably wouldn’t have to consider insulation between inner/outer layers but if you did line it with a fiber cloth or rock wool you’d probably get away with lower burner levels. Where did you get the brass fittings?
Thanks! Being in NS, I thought about rockwool but you can only buy it in large batts and didn't have a use for the rest of it. This way I can disassemble it and it doesn't weight as much, I call it a design feature lol.
I like the look of the oven but the air gap insulation is something I really do not like. If it was my build I would build it so that I could insulate the oven with ceramic fiber insulation.
I'd build one where the food isn't directly exposed to the flames. Make it triple wall with insulation between the outer layers and the hot air going all around between the middle and inner layers. Put in baffles in that space to make the heated air take a long path to extract more heat.
Just for your knowledge You need a real biscotto stone from Italy its made from volcanic sand and clay not cordierite stone ...biscotto stone will cook it in 30 sec with a nice crusty bottom
Get your hands dirty with some arduino/ESP32 microcontroller a hairdryer air blower to make a custom made forced air gas burners, you'll save 5-10 times of gas consumption and pizza oven should heat up much faster. Also I would use stainless steel for forced air gas burners. You could also make your own forced air gas burners using a design concept that is used by professional blacksmiths who save much gas fuel, effort and time to heat up their forges and maintain high temperatures, they design and make something called a "Ribbon Burner" which is made using affordable special specific "refractory cement" for extreme temperature forges and furnaces. (not found at local home depot). I bet Ooni will start using forced air gas burners instead of venturi burners on their newer models in the future.
Andrew your temps are waaaaaaaay too high. I know that was the initial goal, but you're looking for several types of heat. You have very little radiant heat in this equation because of the lack of stored energy in the stainless steel. It conducts so quickly that your pizza is being cooked more from hot air. While that's not a huge issue, the result is lots of burned hot spots and a general lack of browning. I think you can fix this by attacking the pizza with your gorgeous oven for about 30 seconds, then back down the heat and allow it to brown at a lower temp. Your cook time should be in the realm of 4-5 minutes, not one! Would it not be prudent to develop a ceramic array, something tiled upon the roof of your oven so as to allow radiant heat to reflect?
If you want to cook a pizza in 4-5 mins then you could just buy a cheap electric pizza oven. One of the reasons purists don't like the electric ovens is because they don't get quite as hot and can't cook a neapolitan style pizza within 90 secs.
Dude, proud of your can - do attitude and skills! Props!

agreed. Do a convertion vidoe of an existing 3 burner gas grill into a pizza oven.

Put kaowool between the stainless layers to retain more heat and reduce gas usage.
Very accomplished all round engineering and chef

Very nice build Andrew! That naan bread looks yummy!
It was, thanks!
Lovely build. Although not stainless I wonder whether using an oil drum is also an option.
He gave me a good idea, I have a charbroil grill with two burners that I will build a dome and try his idea
I been watching your video for few months and now I decided to make a pizza oven with some of your ideas and some from others. I will be making my pizza oven drum, fire bricks and full insulation. thanks for the burner idea.
great, how is it going
Nice build Andrew!!! I been wanting to build a pizza oven so I like it that you've kinda turned it into a little series.
Glad you enjoyed it, kinda happened organically, kept going until I landed on this final design. Hmm but maybe a V4 someday in the future...
Will there be an instructable for V.3? (The pizza oven itself, not the burners)

GOOD JOB BRO!!! LOOKS NICE
This design is very good
11:05 Were u trying to hypnotize me? That kinda filled good!

Nice! New title, pizza oven made with big pasta machine.
I nice build I want to do the same thing soon , just wondering what brand and model number is you slip roller ? I want to purchase it thank you for posting this video
قمة في الإبداع
Which welder are u using and is it also the plasma cutter?
Can I just use drum barrel?
Is there any insulation between the inner and outer stainless steel liners?
how much did it cost? can I buy from you? other marketed ones are so expensive for me :(. thanx anyway
wood fire one of course

Hi andrew. Can I build this with a 1.5mm or 1mm thick steel?
Amazing skills and tasty food : >
Amazing, truly!
Nice, perfect to top with some fresh pineapple!
Very good skill 👍
Hi, what is the thickness of the metal stainless steel? (304 or 403?)
can you list the cost of materials for the build>?
Nice output. How much time it takes to reach ideal oven temp? Hope it does not empty the propane tank but the pizza looks delish.
I didnt know you could mig weld stainless?
Hi Andrew. I absolutely love that oven ! I have the tools to make it but I need the dimensions ?
Thanks! Let me check, I will take a few measurements, I built this on the fly, so I did a bad job recording the sizes..
@@AndrewWorkshop thanks! That would be great . My wife and I love your channel . You are extremely talented !!

Are these available for sale?
Love it if I had the tools I would totally make one great content
Thanks, and it's a good excuse to get tools 😅

wonder why you dont isolation your pizza oven

Can I have the dimensions of the pizza oven
v4.0 need to have a rotating stone 😁
Muito bom isso aí Parabéns 👍
Nice work ( I would like to see a bread oven)
Thanks! That would be a much bigger oven lol
Great DIY project.
As a welder, use an air ventilator or weld outside to prevent breathing the stainless steel smoke. It’s not good for your health.
Cant mimic the wood smoke tough!
Don't let the pizza oven bug BIT YA!
Nice
Recipe plz!
Wow. You should be teaching in the MechEng department of some college.

Fiz um forno com antena sky
Dude build me one !!!!!!
🔥🔥🔥👍
Just for your knowledge You need a real biscotto stone from Italy its made from volcanic sand and clay not cordierite stone ...biscotto stone will cook it in 30 sec with a nice crusty bottom
you miss one cheap technology. gas blower. it mix gas and oxygen make you use less gas but produce more heat.
how much money did you end up spending
CAN YOU SELLME ONE?
How is this portable pizza oven doing?
Looks pretty inefficient in terms of gas usage.
Cheese then toppings.....come on lol.
Thumping is very annoying!

That's what I wanted to say. Some sort of coating on the ceiling
Neapolitan pizzas should be baked for between 1 and 3 minutes.

I think, if you replace the iron top with a pizza stone (reflecting heat) The oven will heat up faster.
All it needs is a chimney!
