The New Fourneau Bread Oven Insert

I was sent a Fourneau Bread Oven insert by the Fourneau company to test out. Wow, was it fun to get a heavy package delivered on my doorstep with the words “Fourneau” written all over it! I had seen ads for the oven in the past when they were gearing up for production and had launched their kickstarter.

I thought at the time, “How cool it would be to have a “wood fired oven” replica in my own home oven. So I got to test it out. View the videos below and see for yourself how it performed. I posted the videos on Facebook in my bread groups and there is a lot of interest. However, most of us, me included, feel that the oven needs to be larger. Large enough to accommodate at least a 800+ gram loaf. The present oven holds about 500+ or a bit more if your bread is longer instead of rounder or fatter. Edited to add: Forneau now has the larger oven, it’s called the Grande. You can bake an 800+ gram loaf or a 1K batard with the larger oven. Use the link below to visit Forneau and find out more.
