How much is bottle of patio gas roughly now, have prices rocketed.
This much, you have to buy it in a local store though.

With the Koda 12, will the ooni 12" metal peel be ok for turning the pizza in the oven?
I have a wooden peel to create/launch and the metal peel I use to take pizza out, currently use my home oven.
Im thinking it might be a bit tricky with the size of pizza oven and peel to get any movement to turn the pizza.
Perhaps I need something else for turning?
edit/ Ok I see you can buy pizza turners, but I really want to save some money instead of buying every accessory to cook a pizza, what do you guys do?

I just use the metal peal, stick it in and pull out the pizza, spin the pizza 90-120 degrease and stick it back in. Simples.
If you are trying to turn it without taking out the oven then don’t
haha, yeah not good idea, thanks will just use the peel I have then.
By the way when you guys use these ovens in colder months of year, or anytime for that matter, do create and prep your pizzas outdoors, or do it all in the kitchen and just take it out on the peel?
Check around on Facebook Marketplace or Gumtree for people selling cylinders.
I phoned 3 places today and all said I couldn't take out a new cylinder and they could only do exchanges because of a national shortage.
Luckily I found someone local selling a small 5kg patio gas cylinder which is over half full so I snapped that up off them today.
Has anyone used the Homepride "00" flour that Tesco stock? Is it any good?
Popped in today and this was literally the only 00 flour in there so decided to give it a pop.
Just need to figure out what mix/proof times to go with.

Start with the Ooni recipe and go from there.

Going to try their dough recipe next time I make some.
Got a Koda 12 ordered today from Lakeland £239 with a 20% off voucher I had.

Have actually used it inside before but mostly prep inside and walk out to launch the pizza.
This should be avoided at all costs, yeah it won't blow your house up but the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning is significant, same with burning anything indoors without sufficient oxygen.

Is a big enough space and the patio doors were open, just that it started raining.
I had hoped you'd clarify how you were using it, but unfortunately not everyone is as switched on hence why CO poisoning affects so many people every year because they just don't realise.

How much heat do these ovens give off, in particular the koda 12, we sometimes have a gazebo up on the patio area. I guess it would be ok if the escaping heat output was low, its quite a large open gazebo as well. This is only if Its raining and I want to make a pizza.
You'll be fine, they're fairly well insulated at the end of the day so won't be a problem.

That's good to know, seen a few pics of people using the koda version under a gazebo as well now, handy if its super hot day as well and want some shade.
