Additional Barrel Oven Construction Information

We have decided to focus on production of the barrel oven and backed off – for the moment – on production of doors, grates, and ash drawers sometimes used for the firebox below.

As explained in our book, Build Your Own Barrel Oven, these are optional and a barrel oven can be built with a narrow opening for the fire chamber and cut rebar for a grate.

You can also employ a “rocket” style combustion chamber which eliminates the need for additional hardware:

We will be supplying a new line of cast iron doors and grates that will be ready in March or April of 2020.

If you are in a hurry, you can purchase additional hardware from Northstone Heat Supply, distributors of Pisla Finnish Cast-Iron Hardware, as we did for this project:
