Default Re: Advice for a first timer with a wood burning oven

Your top temperature, 180c is 356f. That's the temperature you'd bake cookies at, and of course 100 is water boiling temperature. I find it hard to think how you'd keep something as cool as 180c in the presence of a blazing eight log wood fire. How are you measuring your temperatures? Does the carbon burn off the inside of your dome?

A prefab oven should not be that different than a brick built one. Either, of course, can lack insulation.
