FIRING IN FORNO MULTI

The Morsø Forno Multi facilitates direct switch from gas burning to wood burning without any previ-
ous lighting phase for wood. Set the gas burners to maximum output and place a few dry hardwood
logs on the cast-iron plate. The wood will be lit in a matter of 5-10 minutes, after which period, you
can switch off the gas burners and continue with wood burning – alone or as a combination of gas
and wood burning.
KINDLING AND FIRING TECHNIQUE FOR WOOD
Behind every successful bonfire lies a solid layer of burning embers. This condition is soon established
by lighting up, using 2-4 firelighters under 1-2 kg dried kindling wood at the centre of the fireplace.
Kindling wood is stacked crosswise and lit at the centre of the stack. You can use a blowpipe, like the
one that is built into the Morsø ash scraper, to blow at the embers and thus accelerate the fire. When
the kindling fire has burnt out, it is distributed over a suitable area at the centre of the grilling area and
more logs are added. As a speedy way to get the oven ready for pizza baking, it is an advantage to use
finely split wood of approx. 3x3 cm in size.
When the fire has burnt down, repeat the above procedure above until you have sufficient embers for
covering almost the entire size of the oven's frying area. For every expansion of the area covered by
embers, you will be able to increase the amount of firewood. To prevent getting burned, it is a good
idea to use a pair of tongs when you put wood into the oven. You can for instance use the Morsø fire
tongs, specifically developed for use with the Morsø Forno.
When lighting with firelighters of paraffin content, it can be an advantage to use a split log as underly-
ing layer. This will prevent the paraffin from melting into the frying surface.
NOTE! Always use dry, clean, and untreated wood in the oven.
Firewood should be stored under cover for at least 1 year, preferably 2 years, at a place
with possibility of for wind circulation. Firewood should be split as soon as possible after
the logging, if it is to dry fast. The wood is ready for use when the moisture is below 20%.
Never use driftwood as this will generally be extremely saline, which may be detrimental
to the oven. Water-proofed as well as painted wood and chipboard may release poison-
ous smoke and fumes and are thus equally unfit for application in connection with the
preparation of food.
The oven may give off squeaking sounds during cooling. This is owing to the considerable
differences in temperature to which the material is exposed.
