Forno Braga ovens are made of refractory clay bricks, fired in a wood fired tunnel oven at 900 to 1000C for 72 hours. Their composition allows them to absorb heat quickly and retain heat for long periods therefore saving fuel. For the best results pizza and breads should be baked directly on the oven floor, as the heat retained in the refractory tiles is an important detail for the cooking process. The double door features a hole that is designed to fit a rotisserie for spit roasting. When not used the hole is covered by a metal flap. In the back wall of the dome there is a protrusion for the spit. This oven is hand made from clay bricks on the inside, covered with mineral wool insulation, metal mesh, and refractory cement.
