Deck pizza ovens offer the same flexibility as brick ovens in their style and are slightly easier to use, but they still require a lot of skill and constant monitoring, so they tend to have a longer cooking time than conveyors.
As speed of service isn’t always a priority with this oven, a cheese with a slightly slower melt compared to conveyor ovens will work best – but it depends on your style!

A thicker cut size of mozzarella gives a slower melt, allowing the pizza base to be fully cooked before the cheese begins to burn.
Key benefits:
Once cooked it resembles softer mozzarella such as buffalo, burrata and fior di latte
Low moisture content allows the pizza to be cooked more evenly, giving a crispy base and a golden crust
A 10x10mm cut size is making it the perfect solution for operators who use super-hot pizza ovens
