For optimum performance of your Igneus wood fired oven, we advise that you use kiln dried silver birch as your main fuel source. Its paper-like bark, combined with its general density makes it the perfect wood to use when cooking and it will provide you with a fantastic bed of high quality embers to use when slow cooking. Other kiln dried wood can be used, however it is possible that they will not perform to the same standard as kiln dried silver birch.
Because the Igneus Minimo portable wood fired oven is small and portable, it will burn less fuel than its larger cousins. Around three to four small silver birch offcuts of roughly 3cm diameter x 12cm long will burn every 15-20 minutes.
On average, both the Igneus Classico and Igneus Bambino wood fired ovens will burn around two to three silver birch logs of roughly 7cm diameter x 30cm long every 25-30 minutes, making them a very efficient oven to run
To source silver birch in your area, just Google Log suppliers in your area and give them a call. Most good log suppliers will be able to supply it to you in bags, or metric cubes
