Really good pizza needs high heat, so all Ooni live fire pizza ovens raise its temperature to 500 °C/950 °F and cook an amazing pizza in just 60 seconds.
Ooni was founded by Kristian Tapaninaho and Darina Garland. Kristian really enjoyed making pizzas, but was frustrated: «my pizzas are good, but they are not great». The pizzas that Kristian was able to make at home lacked that restaurant flavor that is achieved at very high heat. He wasn’t an inventor, an engineer or a product designer, but he knew he had a great idea. After a series of sketches, many prototypes and continuous testing in her backyard, Kristian created the world’s first portable wood oven. Ooni was born.
Since its launch, Ooni has become an award-winning company. Headquartered in Scotland, Ooni also has subsidiaries in the United States and continental Europe, as well as a network of reliable and respected global distributors. Innovation is critical for Ooni and that’s why it has released stunning new pizza oven models – including Ooni Fyra 12, Ooni Pro 16, Ooni Koda 12, Ooni Karu 12 and Ooni Koda 16 -, as well as wood pellets.
