Advantages of gas-fired oven:
Easy to use
The biggest advantage of a gas fired oven is the easy way of using it compared with a wood fire oven, making it usable even on a daily basis.
Faster heating time
Gas ovens heat up faster than wood or electric ovens, which means you can start cooking your food sooner.
Lower operating costs
Natural gas is typically less expensive than electricity, so using a gas oven can save you money on your energy bills.
Even heat distribution
Gas ovens provide more even heat distribution than electric ovens, which can result in better cooking and baking results.
Precise temperature control
Gas ovens typically have more precise temperature control than electric ovens, allowing you to adjust the temperature to the exact degree you need for your recipe.
Reliable performance
Gas ovens are known for their reliability and durability, making them a popular choice for home and professional kitchens alike.
Unique way of baking
Megatherm’s wood-fired oven, thanks to its design and construction, offers three ways of transferring heat to the food, which ensure the best result for baking or cooking:
1. Conductive heat transfer
Conventional electric ovens transfer heat using a fan when needed. Megatherm’s wood-fired ovens, due to their opaque construction, transfer the flame and heat from one side where the fire is located to the other, creating circulation and resulting in uniform temperature inside the oven.
2. Convection heat transfer
The fire bricks on which we place the food store heat, which they transfer to the food by convection, due to their direct contact with the food. This is considered the ideal way of baking for pizza or bread, creating the crust that is popular in Neapolitan pizza.
3. Radiant heat transfer
The oven stores heat in the fire bricks, as well as in its stainless steel walls, which it transfers to the food through radiation.
