Forno1889® Beechwood Pizza Briquettes

€16.75 EUR

Crafted for professional and domestic pizza ovens

Forno1889® marries the sustainability of modern high-performance briquettes with the heritage of traditional Neapolitan pizza making.

As the story goes, on arriving in Naples, Queen Margherita of Savoy & King Umberto I invited Rafaele Esposito, Napoli’s most esteemed pizza maker to prepare dinner. Deeming the traditional garlic topping unfit for royalty, Esposito created a pizza topped simply with tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil — the Italian flag's red, white, and green. The year was 1889.

Made from 100% virgin Beechwood, Forno1889® pizza briquettes are our food-grade cooking logs that will reach the required 500-degree Celsius temperature in Neapolitan-style oven whether cooking in a professional setting or at home.

Due to the consistent burning, there has been a particular appeal from professional chefs who need reliable results every single time.

Forno1889® Beechwood Pizza Briquettes are made of FSC® 100% certified wood.

The Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) is a global, not-for-profit organisation dedicated to the promotion of responsible forest management worldwide. FSC defines standards based on agreed principles for responsible forest stewardship supported by environmental, social, and economic stakeholders. To learn more, visit www.fsc.org.

Our FSC® certificate number is SGSCH-COC-140013.

You can also find the FSC® 100% label on the box of Forno1889® below.

Made from 100% Biomass. Contents comply with the Air Pollution Act Regulations. EPA Registration No. F0087–01.

Since they’re made from 100% Beechwood, sourced from responsible sources, Forno1889® briquettes are carbon neutral.

In our most recent DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025:2018 laboratory tests at AH Knight, which often are referred to as Chemical Analysis tests, the Forno1889® briquettes are shown to produce energy output with a gross calorific value of 5.37 kWh/kg.

The moisture content ranges between 5.4 – 6.6%, with the ash content 0.5%.

By design, Forno1889® briquettes are octagonal in shape, and one can say they are custom-made for Neapolitan-style cooking where the fuel must be burned on the left side of the oven. The high and consistent temperatures will guarantee consistent and reliable results.

This high performance also makes these briquettes suitable for stoves and fire pits, where a great flame and high heat output are important.

Each 15kg box measures 30cm x 24cm x 24cm and contains 9 octagonal briquettes, each measuring 24cm long and 8cm in diameter.

Packaged in a recyclable cardboard box, Forno1889® Briquettes are easy to handle and store. The box requires minimal but weatherproof storage for safe storage. Direct contact with water may result in the total loss of the briquettes or reduced or poor performance.

Contents comply with the Air Pollution Act Regulations. Registration F0087-01.
