2010年1月11日 · The fire brick I used to use was white, so it radiated less heat/required that 10-12" vertical opening. Because of the darker color of your bricks, it's probably too much. Especially with the impaired pre-heat from the support.

2015年4月29日 · Then have a pizza stone sit on the fire brick while I have an 11 gauge disc as the top to retain any heat from above. The sides will let some heat rise around the brick and make it to the chamber so as not to kill the crust and have the top of the pizza be raw.

2020年2月25日 · I'm also thinking about making 50/50 floor biscotto and high duty fire bricks. For two reasons, to mainly have the fire placed on the fire bricks to spare the biscotto, and to occasionally use the fire brick side for other cooking than neapolitan pizzas. And to some extent to optimize the already blown budget...

2024年12月7日 · construction-wise, it worked out well. Use-wise, I probably would have been better off with all fire brick. My oven is half biscotto floor and half Whitacre Greer fire brick. I don't use the biscotto side of my oven that often. The pizza I usually chase is more a standard, American wood fired pizza, 4-or so minute bake at 625 to 650 degrees F.

2022年6月16日 · My oven is full brick, but not fire brick. Like you, I couldn't afford them. They are at least $5 a brick here, and I'd have needed about 100 or so of them. So I used fired clay pavers - these are used to pave driveways and patios here in Oz. They are pretty much just a well fired skinny brick with no holes or frogs.

2013年6月4日 · This may prevent my from making the fire towards the rear of the oven only. The outer enclosure of bricks might be 2 bricks tall, with the inner enclosure being only 1 brick tall. The entire structure would probably be shifted atop the fire pit to allow wood to be dropped in from the sides. Materials: Standard brick for the shown brick sections.

2013年12月13日 · Heat is not conducted to the dome, so thermal conductivity is not a factor. Even if it was most castable refractories have a thermal conductivity at or above firebrick. As for color, most fire brick in the US is buff while every castable I have ever seen is a dark grey, so your analysis of the function color plays is also off.

2012年9月27日 · This is the brick that we recommend for both the cooking floor and dome of the Pompeii oven. medium duty firebricks are comprised of roughly 35% alumina and 50% silica, heat up quickly, easily withstand the 900F heat your oven will reach, and are designed for the rapid heat-up and cool down (thermal cycling) that your oven will experience.
