The hopefully not obnoxious wood fired brick oven build thread

[paulthenurse]

I didn't say that. You did. And as usual you were wrong.

 

[Cape Brewing]

You are

 

[Paps]

So.... basically what you are saying is that the only way this whole deal could be more of an epic fail is if it HAD actually exploded as several of us predicted.

epic

 

[paulthenurse]

Where did you pick up your trash talking skills? Walmart?

Epic snail... So sad.

 

[Paps]

What's "Sad" is that that snail can build a better pizza oven than you can and get it done in under a year.

 

[paulthenurse]

So? I'm not racing anyone.

 

[bob1852]

Other than Father Time...

 

[Paps]

My bets on Father Time winning.

[bbohanon]

WTH did I just walk into here?
<slowly turns and leaves>

 

[Stealthcruiser]

Is that a pizza oven, or an amateur crematory ?

 

[paulthenurse]

The dead hookers are under the shed, not in the oven.

PKU

 

[the_bird]

Has that shed fallen over yet? Wasn't looking too good as of last fall....

 

[HoppyDaze]

The ******* is strong in here

 

[brewbama]

Pass the popcorn. This is worth the price of admission. LOL

 

[Cape Brewing]

Amateurs.

 

[paulthenurse]

Well you are Obe Whattan Assho!e. We're all amateurs compared to you.

 

[paulthenurse]

That was still funny when I woke up this morning.

 

[the_bird]

Well, you're also still drunk.

 

[Cape Brewing]

And ugly as all fkcu

 

[paulthenurse]

Dean Wormer was wrong. Fat, drunk and stupid is actually not a bad life.

 

[homebeerbrewer]

Fat, drunk and stupid is actually not a bad life.

Only you would know.

 

[Cape Brewing]

God... I can't imagine how many pizzas have been cooked in this bad boy so far this year. I bet you can count em' on zero fingers.

 

[paulthenurse]

I SO love it when you talk sh!t and have no idea what an idiot you are. At least Rick knows he's an idiot and doesn't embarrass himself too much.

Is it even done yet? Or this build bleeding into year five?

 

[GilaMinumBeer]

So, regarding the "hopefully not annoying" part of this thread. How's that working out for you so far?

 

[paulthenurse]

Cape certainly IS annoying, isn't he?

As far as the oven, it has the side walls up and the inside voids filled with insulation. There is a layer of Nomex cloth (the stuff that they use for firefighters gear and race car drivers suits) laud over the dome then a perlite/vermiculite blend was added to act as insulation. I cooked in it in Sunday and it was about 900*F inside and I put a thermometer on the peak of the roof and it was just about 100*F. I'm very happy with how well the insulation is working. I've started screwing the metal lath on the sides for the stucco.

Only thing owing me down is paying for it. We're going to the Galápagos Islands and I needed to finish paying for that first. But that's pretty much paid so I'll be rolling soon.

Jason Pierre-Paul says "Yes, yes you can."

 

[the_bird]

Credit where credit's due, though. It hasn't collapsed into the koi pond. Yet.

This is a pic of the Nomex with the insulation just getting started.

This one shows the last of the small sized insulation just poured out of the bags. After I spread it around I was able to pour another 6 cu ft bag of larger size perlite on top. The perlite is a volcanic rock that gets heated in a blast furnace and the water trapped within expands. It's basically rock popcorn, full of air. A six cu ft bag of this 'rock' weights about 10 pounds.
