IMPORTANT! SAFETY WARNINGS! Please read the entire Owner’s Manual before attempting to assemble and use your oven. This manual contains important information that will help you assemble and enjoy your oven. ALWAYS USE CAUTION WHEN LIGHTING AND COOKING ON YOUR OVEN. THIS APPLIANCE GENERATES EXTREMELY HIGH TEMPERATURES. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS DAMAGE TO YOUR OVEN AS WELL AS PROPERTY DAMAGE, BODILY INJURY OR POSSIBLY DEATH.
Position the oven on a flat level surface and away from strong winds. Sparks can be ejected out of the oven. Remove all flammable material from around the oven. Never leave the oven unattended during use. To extinguish the fire, place the door on the front of the oven mouth completely sealing the oven opening. DO NOT THROW WATER ON THE FIRE.
TIPS AND SUGGESTIONS Remove all protective laser film during assembly. This ensures that parts that are ultimately covered by another part do not have remains of the laser film showing around the edges. Also this avoids the protective laser film “baking” onto the surface of the oven from either the heat of the oven or from sitting in the sun, and becoming difficult to remove. If the protective laser film is hard to peel off try slightly warming the surface with the use of a hair dryer.
USING YOUR FORNO VENETZIA WOOD BURNING OVEN POSITIONING YOUR OVEN SAFETY ALWAYS COMES FIRST Place your oven on a flat even surface, away from any combustible materials. Ideally a stone or concrete floor is preferred. Consult local building and fire regulations for the recommended safe distance from buildings, partitions and coverings such as pergolas and roofs. Additional parts maybe required. Once in position, place wheel blocks against the wheels to ensure the oven does not move.
Once there is a reasonable bed of embers and a moderate flame your oven temperature should be around 750° - 800° F (400°- 450° C). Sweep the oven floor once again and your oven is ready for cooking. Note: Always pre-heat the oven before cooking. USING DIFFERENT TYPES OF WOOD The most important requirement is to use a hardwood that is well seasoned and dry. If the wood is still wet or “green”, it will take longer to light, produce more smoke and not generate the same high temperatures.
Once the required temperature has been reached, maintain the fire by adding small to medium sized pieces of wood (3-4” in diameter) every 10-15 minutes or so and the oven temperature should be relatively constant. If it is a cold or windy day, expect longer heating and cooking times. If it is a hot day, cooking times maybe reduced. Cooking times can also vary depending on the size of the food or dish placed inside the oven.
COOKING IN YOUR FORNO VENETZIA WOOD FIRED OVEN Wood fired ovens combine three different methods of cooking due to the design and shape of the oven. Convection Cooking As the dome is curved and the fire is on the left side of the oven, the flames curl up and across the top of the dome creating a convection-cooking environment. Like most convection ovens this can result in reduced cooking times.
CLEANING THE INSIDE OF YOUR FORNO VENETZIA WOOD BURNING OVEN Your Forno Venetzia is a self-cleaning oven. Any cheese or toppings from a pizza that happens to fall off the pizza onto the hearth or sauce from roasts or other dishes can easily be removed. Move some of the embers and fire to the area that needs to be cleaned and let the fire burn for a few minutes. Then push the fire back into place on the left side of the oven and sweep the hearth as before.
Q: How do I clean the oven? - The oven is self-cleaning, which means the fire will burn off everything you spill on the oven floor (hearth) and once the oven fully cools you simply sweep it out. Q: How long does it take to cook a pizza in a wood fired oven? - Cooking pizza requires a very hot oven floor and very short cooking time (650 - 750°F for approx. 2 - 3 minutes). When the temperature drops to around 450°F, the temperature is perfect for cooking roast, turkey and other large meals.
IMPORTANTE! INFORMAZIONI SULLA SICUREZZA! Vi raccomandiamo di leggere il Manuale d’Uso per intero prima di iniziare ad assemblare e a usare il forno. Questo manuale contiene informazioni importanti che vi aiuteranno ad assemblare il forno e a utilizzarlo correttamente. PRESTATE SEMPRE MOLTA ATTENZIONE DURANTE L’ACCENSIONE E LA COTTURA.
Posizionate il forno su una superficie piana, lontano da forti correnti d’aria. Eventuali scintille potrebbero fuoriuscire dal forno. Allontanate qualsiasi materiale infiammabile dalla zona intorno al forno. Non lasciate mai il forno incustodito quando è in funzione.
CONSIGLI UTILI Rimuovete la pellicola protettiva durante l’assemblaggio. In questo modo tutte le parti che vanno poi coperte da altre parti non presenteranno resti di pellicola sui bordi.
UTILIZZO DEL FORNO A LEGNA VENETZIA POSIZIONAMENTO DEL FORNO LA SICUREZZA VIENE PRIMA DI TUTTO Posizionate il forno su una superficie piana, lontano da materiali combustibili, idealmente su un pavimento in pietra o cemento.
Il Paralegna per il Forno Venetzia (da acquistare separatamente) può essere utilizzato per contenere fuoco, braci e cenere in modo ordinato e compatto all’interno del forno. In questo modo ottimizzerete la superficie di cottura.
CONTROLLO DELLA TEMPERATURA Il termometro del vostro Forno Venetzia rileva la temperatura in una specifica posizione all’interno del forno ed è da considerarsi puramente indicativo. La temperatura sul pavimento del forno può differire leggermente e può variare in base alla posizione.
Per la cottura tradizionale al forno, fate morire il fuoco e mantenete la porta leggermente aperta (3-‐5 cm). Questo permette alle braci di continuare ad ardere, mantenendo la temperatura.
Per pulire l’esterno del forno, utilizzate acqua calda e sapone delicato con un panno non abrasivo. Non utilizzate spugne o raschietti in metallo, perché danneggiano la finitura del forno. Controllate periodicamente che non ci siano ostruzioni nella canna fumaria e rimuovete eventuali residui di cenere o fuliggine.
D: Posso cucinare altro oltre alla pizza in questo forno? -‐ Assolutamente sì! Cucinate pizza, salsicce, pesce, bistecche, tacchino, pollo, oppure pane, torte, biscotti e molto altro ancora. -‐ Ricordate però che molti cibi richiederanno un tempo di cottura ridotto.
IMPORTANT! CONSIGNES DE SÉCURITÉ! Veuillez lire entièrement le Manuel du propriétaire avant de procéder au montage et à l’utilisation de votre four. Ce manuel contient d’importants renseignements utiles au montage de votre four pour l’apprécier pleinement. SOYEZ TOUJOURS PRUDENT LORSQUE VOUS ALLUMEZ VOTRE FOUR ET CUISEZ AVEC CELUI-‐CI.
Ne bougez pas le four lors de l’utilisation. Placez le four sur une surface plane, à l’abri de vents forts. Des étincelles peuvent être éjectées du four. Retirez toute matière inflammable à proximité. Ne laissez pas le four sans surveillance lors de son utilisation.
CONSEILS ET SUGGESTIONS Retirez toute la pellicule laser protectrice lors du montage. Ainsi, vous éviterez qu’il ne reste de pellicule qui déborderait d’une pièce couverte ultimement par une autre pièce.
UTILISATION DE VOTRE FOUR À BOIS FORNO VENETZIA POSITIONNEMENT DE VOTRE FOUR LA SÉCURITÉ PRIME TOUJOURS Placez votre four sur une surface plane et lisse, idéalement sur un sol en pierre ou en béton, loin de toute matière combustible.
À l’aide d’une brosse de nettoyage en métal, balayez vers le feu la suie et les cendres restantes sur la sole du four et laissez votre feu continuer à brûler en y ajoutant des morceaux de bois au besoin.
La cuisson au four à bois peut nécessiter un peu d’apprentissage dans la gestion de votre feu et de la température. Cette cuisson ressemble à celle sur un barbecue au charbon de bois ou sur un poêle à bois. Vous devez toujours préchauffer entièrement le four avant son utilisation.
CUISSON DANS VOTRE FOUR À BOIS FORNO VENETZIA Les fours à bois utilisent trois différentes méthodes de cuisson de par leur conception et leur forme. Cuisson par convection La cuisson par convection est obtenue en raison de la courbe du dôme et du feu situé du côté gauche du four.
Vous pouvez vous servir de votre four Forno Venetzia toute l’année, en toutes saisons. Toutefois, pendant l’hiver, lorsque la température extérieure est près ou en-‐dessous du point de congélation, alimentez le feu plus lentement pour éviter une augmentation rapide de la température du four.
-‐ Nous recommandons aussi d’acheter un tisonnier pour manipuler le feu et une brosse en laiton pour balayer les cendres. Q: Quelle sorte de bois devrais-‐je utiliser? -‐ Tout bois dur et sec tel que chêne, érable, noyer, olivier, amandier, frêne, caryer, acajou et bouleau.
