ALFA PIZZA OVENS MELBOURNE
Maintenance and cleaning of your Alfa oven
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How are Alfa ovens different to a regular oven?
The key to a perfect Italian-style pizza is to cook it quickly at a high temperature; regular ovens simply don’t get hot enough. Alfa ovens can reach temperatures of up to 500 Celsius, allowing you to cook pizzas in as little as 90 seconds. The Alfa oven Forninox technology allows the oven to heat up in around 40-60 minutes using small amounts of fuel.
Are Alfa ovens gas or wood fired?
The Alfa range is predominately wood fired but Alfa offer a range of gas fired ovens with some models giving you the option of both. There is a limited range of gas fired options approved for sale in Australia. Convenience or tradition? Both deliver great pizzas.
What is ‘Forninox’ technology?
Alfa patented Forninox technology ten years ago, and it has since enabled them to manufacture high-octane stainless steel and brick refractory wood-fired ovens. This technology allows for the combined use of materials (stainless steel inner structure with refractory bricks for the base) and means that these ovens reach the high temperatures required in less time – and maintain the heat for longer.
What sized ovens are available?
Alfa pizza ovens come in a number of sizes in our residential range, with capacity ranging from one to five pizzas. Our commercial ovens can cook up to eight pizzas at a time – and up to 110 in an hour. Whether you require a small oven for the backyard, or a larger oven that is suitable for commercial use, we have you covered
Where can the oven be installed and what do I need to know before using the oven?
Please ensure you read the online User Manual's thoroughly before purchasing, installing and/or using a wood or gas fired oven. You should also check with your local council to ensure there are no restrictions in your area. If you are considering a gas fired oven, please refer to the Australian Gas Oven User Manual.
