You can’t decide between buying a wood-fired or a gas-fired oven?
We can help you make up your mind.
If you can’t decide whether you want to buy a wood-fired or a gas-fired oven, then we made a comparison.
ADVANTAGES OF A WOOD-FIRED GARDEN OVEN
Flavour
Firewood imparts a really special flavour to food; bread cooked in wood-fired oven does stir up memories of good old days.
Respect for tradition
That’s the wood-fired oven’s added value. Firewood is the most ancient fuel: the Greeks invented the modern oven that Romans developed introducing clay bricks.
Cooking results
Firewood has excellent features when it comes to heating up the oven.
Alfa recommends the wood-fired oven to:
Do-it-yourselfers
People having a house with a garden
4-member families
People who use the oven every week or every month
People who love baking pizzas, bread, roasts, and lasagna
ADVANTAGES OF A GAS-FIRED GARDEN OVEN
Quickness
The gas-fired oven reaches the working temperature in no time as you can set the flame at full power.
Easy-to-clean
The gas-fired oven is certainly cleaner than its wood-fired counterpart; just remove any loose food residue.
Simple and ergonomic
To operate a gas-fired oven, you only need to push the ignition button, turn the knob and wait for the oven to reach the right temperature. It’s not so simple with a wood-fired oven.
Alfa recommends the gas-fired oven to:
Dynamic people
City dwellers short of space or with a tiny balcony
Single persons or young couples
People who use it daily or frequently
People who like cooking pizzas, meat, or vegetables
