Fontana Gusto - Outdoor Wood-fired Oven 80X65 cm

The Fontana Gusto outdoor wood-fired oven, measuring 80X54 cm, is a high-performance indirect cooking appliance, ideal for those seeking an authentic culinary experience. Proudly manufactured in Italy, it stands out for the superior quality of its materials and durability.

The Fontana Gusto offers a circular cooking chamber with a depth of 80 cm, a width of 65 cm and a height of 45 cm, for a total cooking area of 15600 cm². This oven can simultaneously bake up to 9 pizzas, making it perfect for family gatherings or parties with friends, serving up to 56 guests. The refractory cooking surface ensures even heat distribution.

The oven is equipped with three cooking surfaces, allowing several dishes to be prepared at the same time. The removable panels facilitate cleaning and ensure a high level of hygiene. The front and side shelves provide handy storage space, increasing convenience. The stainless steel roof not only adds a modern touch, but also protects the oven from weathering.

Another important feature of the Fontana Gusto is the steam vent, which helps to maintain an optimal cooking environment inside the chamber, preventing the accumulation of moisture. Weighing 450 kg, this wood-fired oven is extremely robust and stable, ensuring safety during use.

Distinctive features of the Fontana Gusto 80X65 cm wood-fired oven:

• Cooking chamber: depth 80 cm, width 65 cm, height 45 cm.
• Cooking surface: 15600 cm²
• Capacity: up to 9 pizzas at once, for up to 56 guests.

The oven is made of extremely rust-resistant black electro galvanised steel, the side panels are stainless steel, very elegant and resistant to rust and corrosion.

The doors are also incredibly robust and resistant, equipped with a practical release system for complete closure.

In general, the entire structure of this wood-fired oven is very robust thanks to the thickness and quality of the various types of steel used.

This particularity leads it to have a high weight in its category: 450 Kg

The ventilation system is certainly state-of-the-art among those currently fitted in ovens on the market.

The cooking chamber, made of special stainless steel, is separated from the combustion chamber by a double layer consisting of:

• A steel top table
• A refractory plate

This allows even heat distribution over the entire surface of the oven and prevents the formation of zones at different temperatures, which are detrimental to even baking.

The vast majority of wood-fired ovens on the market today are equipped with the ventilation motor at the bottom of the cooking chamber, with direct air emission from the rear of the chamber.

The ventilation is channelled not only laterally but also under the refractory slab.

- Focus on the basic refractory slab that can be used directly for baking pizzas, bread, cakes, and many others.

The central body of the oven, consisting of the combustion chamber and the cooking chamber, is insulated with a thick layer of rock wool, which allows the temperature inside the chamber to be kept constant, avoiding excessive heating of the oven outer sheets.

This would undoubtedly cause a decrease in thermal efficiency, with a consequent increase in wood consumption.

To eliminate air humidity and make the environment drier inside the cooking chamber, a special "exhaust" is provided for the vapour outlet.

This vapour "exhaust" must absolutely not be modified or connected to piping.

Exceptionally sturdy doors made of cast iron, which emphasises the great solidity of this oven.

The upper door is equipped with a large, high-visibility glass, to achieve an almost hermetic closure of the door

- Focus on the thermostat for checking the cooking temperature.

The firewood support grate is made of sturdy sheet metal, and it is equipped with various anti-deformation slots and has an ash drawer at the bottom. It can be easily removed thanks to the convenient side guides.

The flue pipe is fitted with a regulating valve: once the desired temperature is reached, reducing the smoke outlet means keeping the heat generated inside and thus a more stable temperature and less wood consumption.

Flue pipe diameter: 14 cm.

The oven is equipped with electric lighting.

The position of the chimney has been designed to optimise the "suction" and the path of the hot fumes, which evenly lap the cooking chamber without the formation of "preferential paths" that could cause excessive heating of certain parts.

SMOKE VALVE AIR ADJUSTMENT: When the air register is closed, a flow of air passing through the lower part of the door is still guaranteed. The same thing happens with the smoke valve in closed mode, where a flow of smoke out is guaranteed to avoid stagnation and a build-up of carbon dioxide.
