Which oven should I choose - wood or gas?Updated 7 months ago

**Will I notice a difference in flavor between wood and gas?**

You may notice a small difference in flavor. The smells that come from burning

wood can bring a wood-fired flavor and feel to your pizza which you won't get

using a gas oven. The difference however will be _very slight _since your

pizza won't be in the oven for very long.

Here are some things to consider when choosing between wood vs gas:

* Wood has a much more traditional feel. A lot of people love the smell and smoke that comes from cooking with wood.

* Wood makes for a more hands-on cooking experience. To control the temperature, you need to adjust the vents and fuel levels.

* Cooking with gas makes for super quick and convenient cooking. No ash leftover afterwards.

* Gas requires less maintenance throughout your cook. To control the temperature, you simply need to turn the control dial up or down.
