Know before you buy
Yes, the Brio 2 is designed as a true hybrid oven. You can use it with gas for convenience and temperature control, or add wood for that traditional smoky flavor whenever you prefer.
The Alfa Brio 2 reaches its maximum temperature of 500°C in approximately 20 minutes. This rapid heating time is made possible by the high-density refractory bricks and double-layer ceramic fiber insulation.
The 70 x 50 cm cooking floor is spacious enough to accommodate two to three 12-inch pizzas simultaneously. This makes it an efficient choice for hosting small gatherings.
Not necessarily. While you can purchase it with a dedicated base or multifunction table, the oven is designed to be placed on any stable, heat-resistant surface. Just ensure the surface can support the 90kg weight of the unit.
Thanks to the double-layer ceramic fiber insulation, the exterior remains at a moderate temperature compared to the interior. However, it will still get hot, so it is best to keep children and pets at a safe distance during operation.
Absolutely. The high heat retention makes it excellent for roasting meats, baking artisanal bread, and preparing desserts that benefit from a wood-fired or high-temperature environment.
