Does the Brick Oven require cleaning?

The great news is that wood-fired brick ovens are largely self-cleaning!

The extremely high temperatures achieved in these ovens essentially incinerate any food spills or grease, turning them into fine ash.

Key Cleaning Steps:
  1. Ash Removal: The only necessary routine cleaning is occasionally sweeping out the residual ash from the oven floor once the oven has completely cooled down.
  2. Gas Burner Ovens: For ovens equipped with a gas burner, the intense heat will similarly vaporize and clean up any food debris or grease that lands on the oven floor.
