The Production of Artisan Ovens

Built with the same materials as Neapolitan ovens and in a similar style, a traditional Sorrento oven is characterized by a square opening and a slightly higher dome. Why do we prefer Sorrento-style wood-fired ovens? The slightly higher dome allows for cooking Neapolitan pizza, as well as any type of dish, dessert, and especially bread. It facilitates the cooking of traditional Neapolitan pizza by having a slightly stronger flame that allows for more heat to be generated in the oven dome. The square opening facilitates the cooking of the famous Pizza a Metro, which originated on the Sorrento Peninsula (Vico Equense). The square opening also allows for the insertion of trays and baking trays without obstacles.

A Sorrento or Neapolitan-style oven can be built entirely using our high-quality Biscotto di Sorrento bricks and bricks. Mobile ovens are built in our factory in Maiano. They are mounted on a metal frame and shipped fully assembled to your location. Fixed ovens are built on-site. We ship our materials and craftsmen to your location to build the oven on your premises. All ovens can be finished with a decorative exterior cladding of your choice. You can choose decorative tiles and marble or granite for the exterior. They are equipped with a steel door and flue. You can choose between a wood-fired or gas-fired oven, or even both.

Beneath Sorrento's famous citrus orchards lies a clay found in the rich soil, rich in volcanic silica and pumice. This clay makes our Biscotto di Sorrento very porous. The oven base must be porous so it heats up quickly and retains heat for a long time. Biscotto di Sorrento releases this pleasant, even heat. The key difference between Biscotto di Sorrento and other types of bricks on the market is that Biscotto di Sorrento does not burn the bottom of the pizza, absorbing the moisture from the dough. We produce other products, such as bricks and flooring, that are the best and most durable for use in wood-fired ovens and outdoor features such as columns.

Unlike a traditional Sorrento oven, an authentic Neapolitan wood-fired oven has a small rounded entrance and a low internal dome that ensures greater heat and reduces cooking times.
