Chimney baffle

The easiest way to regulate temperature in Ooni Karu 12

is through fuel management. The inbuilt chimney bae

also allows for adjustments to be made to airﬂow and heat

distribution through the oven.

If your Ooni Karu 12 is not running hot enough on wood or

charcoal, check that your chimney bae is open and chimney

cap is removed. This will provide maximum airﬂow and top

temperatures through the oven.

Open chimney bae - increases the draw of air through the

oven, creating more powerful ﬂames and an increased heat.

Closed chimney bae - reduces the draw of air for a smokier

eect and a lower heat.

Are your pizza toppings cooking faster than the pizza base? Simply close the chimney bae to bring down the ﬂames , which gives the pizza base

more time to cook.
