So what is the most important equipment for a small pizzeria? No doubt the answer is pizza oven. It's the life blood of your business, the keystone that holds it together, the cornerstone on which you build the foundation, the…OK, you get it. When you purchase pizza oven, there are many factors you should consider. This article tells you how to choose a suitable bakery pizza oven.
Types of Commercial Pizza Ovens
The four main types of ovens used to cook pizzas are brick ovens, pizza deck ovens, conveyor pizza ovens, and pizza convection ovens. The general consensus in the pizza world is that brick ovens offer the best quality pizza, deck ovens provide the next best, and finally conveyor and convection ovens bring up the rear. However, as stated above, the problem of finding the right oven for your business isn't solved as simply as that—you also need to consider how much pizza you want to produce, how much space you have available, what kind of pizza you want to make, and how much money you are willing to spend. Let's take a look at how each type of oven fits into these considerations.
Gas vs. Electric Pizza Ovens
Conveyor, deck, and convection pizza ovens are all available with either gas or electric hookups. However there are some slight differences between gas pizza ovens and those that run on electric. Working with a gas oven is best for the high-volume, traditional pizza maker. These units will produce a crispier crust and cook the rest of your pizza evenly.
What it all really boils down to is what utility your establishment has available. If your business doesn’t have a hookup to natural gas or liquid propane, then the electric models will better suit your needs. An electric pizza oven is also a better option for businesses that depend on mobility, like food trucks and concession carts, that most likely won’t have access to gas.
