Hi everyone,
we recently came back from a lovely holiday in Turkey where, one evening, some Turkish bread was prepared for us. Interested in knowing how it was made we ventured into the kitchen and were shown a large wood burning oven. The thought was cast and the wheels began to turn.
I've read a huge amount from this site and learned a great deal in the process. Thank you to all contributors.
This morning my wife agreed, in principle, to us having a wood burning oven. So, I have a project!
I am not a bricklayer. I can lay bricks having built a base for a shed last year: We have a 1 in 20 gradient in our garden and with the shed being 16 foot by 12 foot it needed raising at one end - something like a foot and a bit! So, the thought of getting the cement mixer out again isn't an issue.
The slight problem that I have is choosing the oven to purchase. I sort of have in my mind that it would either be Mezzo 760 from Stone bake ovens or a KL Vento Superior from Kiln Linings. I am first to admit that I am not a cook aside from being a wizz with the BBQ but my wife is pretty good. For me it's primarily a project but with a very usable outcome.
I don't know if its reasonable to ask this question or even fair to ask it but I will do so and hope that you can help: what are people's views regarding each of the candidates and what are considered the pro's and con's of each? Anything that can help me reach a decision is much appreciated.
many thanks
Ian
