Cooking in Colder Climates
In colder climates, build your fire slowly in order to avoid potentially damaging thermal shock to your oven
and adjust your regulating valve for optimal burn intensity and efficiency.
Dealing with Spills
Ash and hot embers can be repositioned over spills in order to absorb and burn off any excess grease, juice
or sauce spilled in the cooking area.
Cleaning & Maintenance
After Each Use
Scatter remaining embers and unburnt pieces across cooking surface and allow to cool completely.
Once cold, remove ash and unburnt pieces of wood using brush and ash bucket. This prevents moisture
from collecting within any remnants which could otherwise damage your ovens interior.
Clean the oven interior and cooking surfaces with a brush and damp cloth.
Clean external surfaces with a non-abrasive cloth and warm water or water and mild detergent.
Routine Maintenance
To maintain its shine and appearance, stainless steel surfaces should be cleaned routinely with warm water
and a gentle detergent using an appropriate, non-abrasive, cloth wiped in the direction of the grain, not across
it. After washing, rinse and dry thoroughly. Finger prints and smudges can be removed using a stainless steel
cleaner (Always read and follow the manufacturer’s instructions carefully before using any stainless steel
cleaning product). More resilient stains and blemishes may require identification of the contaminant so that
an appropriate stainless steel safe cleanser can be chosen.
Clean chimney annually, after long periods of disuse or after frequent use. Always check chimney for
excessive build up or blockage before use.
While stainless steel is generally resistant to corrosion, salt water and air, chlorinated water and other
chemicals may cause discoloration resulting in small brown spots (this is often accelerated in coastal areas).
These superficial discolorations in no way affect the strength, integrity or longevity of the steel; routine
maintenance is required to restore the stainless steel to its original appearance. Never use bleach, cleaners
containing chlorine, or abrasive cleaners on stainless steel. In addition, steel wool pads or highly abrasive
cloths shouldn’t be used as fine particles can lodge in the surface of the stainless and rust, giving the
appearance that the stainless itself is rusting.
