Although the primary use is intended for bread, the oven is done in half-mass construction equivalent to a standard pizza oven mass, since the oven is intended for a variety of uses and bread baking is not anticipated to exceed 2-3 batches from a single firing. The oven core is heavily insulated for exceptional heat retention and even baking. The oven is finished with reclaimed clay brick and stucco with integral roof done in cedar shingles with cedar fascia and soffit.

Building bricks will crack under the stress of high heat, though you can use them as a decorative facing. You can buy firebricks online at Home Depot or Lowe’s, and either pick them up at the store or have them delivered. Or, buy from a local masonry supply store—most cities, even small cities, have one. 7) Heavily Ventilated Stone Oven Brick outdoor wood-fired oven. Typical ovens for bread are 14 to 18 inches high in the middle of the dome or vault, and 9 inches high on the sides. This oven loses a lot of heat due to its height and large opening.
