RECOMMENDATIONS FOR USE

Follow these simple steps to get the most out of your Alfa Living oven.
LIGHTING
1. Make a small pile of wood in the centre of the oven with small pieces of dry wood.
2. When the wood is well-lit, add two larger logs and move the fire to one side.
3. After a few minutes of continuous burning, never excessive, the temperature of 250°C/482°F will be reached,
burning to a dark soot. This is the moment the oven is ready to be used.
EN
CAUTION:
The oven should be fed with little of small cut firewood, at most 8.3 kg / h. The use of a higher quantity has to be
avoided and does not allow good baking results.

TURNING OFF

1. To turn the oven off, close the oven door and wait for ash to form.
2. When the oven has been completely turned off for 30 minutes you can remove the ashes.
DIFFERENT TYPES OF WOOD
- Use small sized wood pieces that are very dry, above all for lighting.
- Each wood type provides a fragrance to food in a different way, for example wood from fruit trees is used to
give food a more appetising aroma similarly, maple, walnut and chestnut go well for other foods like meat.
- Treated wood, resin or scrap wood are strictly excluded.
- Wet or damp wood can pop due to the increased volume of water. This will produce a lot of smoke and less
heat.
PYROMETER
- The pyrometer detects the temperature at a point inside the oven. The value detected by the pyrometer is
therefore indicative. With experience it will be easy to better assess when the oven is ready for various types of
cooking. You will acquire, therefore, complete control of the oven and you will become very adept at choosing
the cooking temperature.
OVEN DOOR
- The door is very effective at adjusting heat intensity:
by closing and opening it the temperature may be
better managed.
- If the fire is too high and comes out from the oven
mouth, use the door to adjust the flame.
