hand-made wood-fired pizza ovens

CIAO E BENVENUTO IN DELIVITA

DeliVita are an independent British brand, selling their very own hand-made wood-fired ovens and accessories. The DeliVita family being Italian have always been passionate about handmade pizzas, flatbreads and simple fresh food, cooked authentically. The DeliVita family are Italian, so food and family are at the heart of every occasion, especially pizza!

They found that existing wood-fired ovens were generally too big, expensive and slow reaching cooking temperature so they designed their own homemade wood-fired oven!

They wanted a design that would adapt to their own lifestyle: FAST, PORTABLE, STYLISH AND SOCIAL.

With a bit of advice from local manufacturing experts (and a lot from their extended Italian family) they made their first prototype, and before long their first oven was born.

After many tweaks and refinements their beautifully designed versatile pizza ovens now offer superb performance; weighing only 30kg are portable to enjoy anywhere. Crafted by hand and featuring a traditional clay interior.

FAQ

Absolutely, although it’s a good idea to light a small fire to warm the oven slowly before you want to start cooking to ‘cure’ and fully dry out your oven again.

Absolutely – there are no set times as to when you should cook with wood-burning ovens.

To get started with your DeliVita oven you’ll need:

  • Pizza Peel (to get the pizzas/food in/out of the oven).
  • Pizza Cutter (essential for cutting pizza).
  • The Axe (useful for cutting kindling).
  • All Weather Cover (essential if you leave your oven out all year round and to keep it dry in the rain).
  • Oven Brush (a useful tool to help you position the logs and to keep the oven floor clean).

For a perfect finish and to avoid damage to the stainless steel finish, just use baby oil or stainless steel cleaner using lint free cotton cloth.

This video will provide you with a demonstration of how to maintain your DeliVita oven.

Depending on the temperature of the oven, between 60-90 seconds.

To make the perfect pizza, you should keep turning the pizza away from the flames every 10-12 seconds, allowing a full rotation of the pizza.

Top Tip –  After each pizza scrub the oven floor with the steel brush to remove any burnt remains of the excess flour/semolina from the pizza base.

There can be two reasons for this:

  • The oven is too hot; don’t use more than 3 logs of 8-10cm wide and 22-26cm.
  • There may be surplus flour/semolina remains on the oven floor. Scrub the oven floor with the steel brush to remove the surplus flour.

For a perfect finish and to avoid damage, just use a damp cloth with soapy water.

If there are deep scratches, you can use wet & dry cloth or T-cut from your local car accessory store.

A DeliVita oven weighs 30kg. We have designed the ovens with handles for easy manoeuvrability.

We are proud of our birthplace! DeliVita ovens and stands are made in Yorkshire.

As DeliVita ovens are made from natural products, hairline cracks will occur.

If cracks occur please send photos to DeliVita where they can advise you further

No. The oven must never be positioned in an enclosed area because the smoke and fumes must be allowed to escape properly.

First of all, remember to sprinkle flour onto your pizza peel and make sure your preparation area is floured well.

Don’t wait too long to cook after adding your topping to the dough as it could start to soak it up and become sticky.

Make sure you don’t have any holes or thin spots in your pizza base as these can allow moisture to penetrate and cause sticking.

Make sure you are using properly seasoned hardwood, ideally with a moisture content of less than 15%. This type of wood burns hotter for longer periods and produces very little smoke and ash.

No. All firelighters should be free from kerosene or other additives that may soak into the floor of the oven and, in turn, taint the taste of your food. Please use Eco lighters.

Simply allow the wood to burn out naturally.

The oven should take about 25-30 minutes to heat up to pizza-making temperature. The size and length of the fire will determine the temperature of the oven.

The oven is at its optimum when all of the black carbon has burned off.

Simply use an infrared thermometer gun. When used in free stand, position it in the mouth 10-15cm from the front of the oven, NOT inside the oven.

However, once you have used the oven and experimented with it, you will get a “feel” for the temperature.

We recommend that meat and fish or any dish that will produce fat or liquid from cooking should be placed in a container to avoid tainting the oven floor. Oven plates are available on our website.

Yes, if the DeliVita Cover is being used. The cover has been tested by the manufacturer to be frost-proof at -12°C.

It is important that you use the DeliVita Cover. The oven has been manufactured to be showerproof, however, persistent wetting will affect the oven and moisture will be absorbed.

If you haven’t used it for a couple of months or the weather has been persistently wet, it might be a good idea to light a small fire 3 to 4 hours before you want to start cooking to “cure” your oven again.

The DeliVita oven has been specially designed to allow you to place it on any hard surface other than plastic and glass tables.
