- Ooni Karu 12 gas burner used in this video: geni.us/b3S5
This how-to covers the conversion of the Ooni Fyra 12 from using wood pellets as a fuel source to propane. The conversion uses the Karu 12 gas burner and can be completed in just a few minutes. This helps create more even heat in situations where you need to cook multiple pizzas. - Věda a technologie
Epic, thanks - nice safety and cooking tips too!
Used your vid to install my gas burner. Worked like a charm! Thanks for the instructions :-)
Glad it worked out! Really made a huge difference for me :)
Such a great video that answers all the questions I had. I've cooked upwards of 20 pizzas on my Fyra in one evening with pellets but it was one of the most stressful evenings I can remember 😅.
Do you measure the stone temperature? What are you seeing in the middle or closer to the door using the gas burner?
>Thank a lot for your video mate !
Cheers from France
Glad it helped (and I just moved to Portugal a couple months ago. Basically neighbors haha)
@@allyourtechai I've just did the modification
Maybe it's because it's a bit cold in France ( around 10°C ) , but i struggle reaching 400°C
@@allyourtechai I've just realize that on KARU or Koda, there is not cheminée, maybe i should find a way to close it =)
BTW, if you come to north of France, tell me =)
Hi, did you have the chance to measure the temperature of the stone? Would it be possible to keep the temperature of the stone around 850/900F with this mod?
Thank you!
Thank you so much 😊
I am so glad you took the time to do this video and share your success. My wife probably thinks I really don't like my 2021 Father's present. That will change now, thanks to you. I just ordered the gas burner from Amazon 10 minutes ago. It will be delivered Monday.
Perhaps you have a suggestion or a solution for my other Ooni related issue. My my grill island/patio roof is made of corrugated plastic panels and the temperature of the exhaust from the chimney is too high for comfort. I have considered various diverters and chimney "add-ons", but nothing that looks very good. One option I considered was a 45° bend of vent pipe to divert the heat out... anyway diatribe over. Thanks again!
I have one now and it is magnetic. However, I am not sure the gap created by the magnets would be a good thing.
I wonder if you could get a cap that fits that diffuses the heat? Something along these lines (although I haven’t measured the pipe so I doubt this one would fit) www.acehardware.com/departments/heating-and-cooling/chimney-and-flue/stove-pipe-caps/43355?store=05349&gbraid=0AAAAADtqLJEXHlLYp9reWPW1ComggUqAI&gbraid=0AAAAADtqLJEXHlLYp9reWPW1ComggUqAI&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIjamO2ojw_gIVQW1vBB24SQcFEAQYDCABEgKpj_D_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds
Excellent, tanks à lot !!!!!
Can you do a conversion kit for a Maximus pizza oven from wood to gas propane?
Very helpful video. My unit however went out after 5 minutes. Then very hard to restart. Door was removed so that’s not the issue. I repeated the test. Hard to start, then went out on mid range after 2-3 minutes as if a bad thermocouple. Returning and may try another one.
Interesting, wonder if you did just end up with a bad unit. I haven’t had any issues with mine fortunately.
intersting, how did the second unit work?
Just did my install. Worked perfectly. However the intense heat did cracked my stone. I think I need to ease into the flame. Buying a new stone if I feel I need to
you can find a steel online for this oven better than a stone anyway
Great video, I'd be really careful keeping that propane bottle so close to the oven in case of a gas leak, tank should be lower than oven as propane is heavier than air, unlike natural gas.
Good call out. This was only placed there for the demo, otherwise it’s in the bottom shelf of the Ooni stainless steel outdoor stand that you can purchase.
do you happen to know if the natural gas burner will also fit into the fyra?
Where can I buy the kit from to convert it please
Did you need to close the valve of the chimney because of the heat loss? Nice video!
I left the chimney open, but did end up using the front cover (use at your own risk). It cooked great with that combination.
Good instruction. I would not be concerned over the door causing a hazard because the 2 vent stacks are more than adequate. No more of a hazard than a gas grill lid.
It’s a good point. I left the front cover on personally, but don’t need anyone to blow up and blame me lol
propane will not go up the vent stacks if flame goes out, it is heavier than air so need to keep door off
This is a great video!!! Approximately where on the gauge did you find it was optimal for not burning the top?
I ended up cranking it up to high to get the temp up, then dropping it down to medium while the pizza was inside cooking. That seemed to get the job done.
@@allyourtechai Do you have to raise the temperature again, after you baked a (or some) pizza or does it hold the temperature after heating it up on high?
@@z3alt454 He talks about it in the video, he raises the temp from medium to high in between pizza cooks to maintain the temperature. Then drops it to medium when he actually cooks the pizza.
If you buy the ooni gas conversion no drilling needed. It slides in and re-screws into the unit. Took my 5 minutes to convert it over. Easy peezy. Worth the extra money to have an exclusive OONI oven even though I paid $40.00 more for the easy fit.
That option didn’t exist when I made the video. Glad they finally came around
Which one is that?
Do you have a link for this perhaps? I see the gas burner for Karu 12 and Karu 16 but not a conversion kit that wouldn't require drilling. Thanks.
Don't think this comment applies to the Ooni Friya but the Ooni Karu. There's no Ooni Friya conversion kit. Either way, the one in the video should work.
If you don’t feel like ruining any warranty you have on your oven, getting a set of good magnets also does the job
Ohhh that’s a good idea
Great idea!
Love it! Great suggestion!
What magnets did you use?
What are some good magnets to use?
Thanks im gonna get one pellets are to hard to maintain heat
No problem 👍. Makes a huge difference
I was just looking on the Ooni site. They were very specific about “only for the karu.” Yeah, right. I’m buying this sucker tonight! If, for some reason, I want to cook pizzas at the park I’ll use the pellets. And on that note, they also say that you can’t use hardwood or charcoal because of the ash receptacle. I’m going to put that one to the test too.
@@saldrich3226 Did you try hardwood? How did it go?
hi, what is the length of screws?
I’ll double check. Pretty short though. Just a few mm to get through the two surfaces.
