Why the Authentic Pizza Ovens Wood Peel is Essential
Technical Specifications
Installation and Usage Usage Guidelines
No assembly required. To achieve the perfect launch, ensure the peel is completely dry. Dust the surface with a light coating of semolina or "00" flour. Build your pizza quickly to prevent the dough from sitting too long; give the peel a gentle horizontal shake to ensure the pizza is "hovering" before committing to the launch into your wood-fired oven. Safety Precautions
This tool is specifically designed for launching and serving. Do not use it to rotate pizzas or move hot coals inside the oven. Prolonged exposure to high flames or leaving the peel inside a hot oven will cause the wood to char, warp, or ignite.
Care and Maintenance
Why the Authentic Pizza Ovens Wood Peel is Essential
- Superior Non-Stick Properties: Professional pizzaiolos prefer wood for launching because the organic grain naturally absorbs microscopic amounts of moisture from the dough. This creates a "breathable" surface that, when lightly floured, prevents the dreaded sticking that can ruin a pizza during the launch—a common issue with metal peels.
- Dual-Purpose Utility: This is a versatile 2-in-1 tool. Beyond its role as a launch vehicle, its beautiful natural grain and sturdy construction make it a stunning luxury serving board. Transition your pizza from the oven to the table and slice directly on the wood for an authentic "farm-to-table" presentation.
- Tapered "Easy-Slide" Edge: The leading edge of the peel is precision-milled to a fine taper, allowing it to slide effortlessly under the dough. This ensures the structural integrity of your crust and the placement of your toppings remain undisturbed.
- Ergonomic Lightweight Design: Despite its durable thickness, the wood is selected for its strength-to-weight ratio. It provides a stable, balanced platform that is easy to maneuver, reducing wrist fatigue when hosting large gatherings.
- Thermal Protection: Wood is a natural insulator. Unlike metal, it does not conduct heat, meaning the handle remains cool to the touch and the surface won't prematurely "cook" or sweat the bottom of your raw dough while you are still dressing it.
Technical Specifications
- Material: Premium, food-grade solid wood (varieties selected for durability and low resin content).
- Surface Dimensions: Optimized for standard artisanal pizzas, providing ample room for a 12" to 14" pie.
- Blade Design: Flat-surface construction with a beveled "half-moon" leading edge.
- Handle: Integrated ergonomic short handle for maximum control and easy storage.
- Finish: Smooth-sanded, chemical-free natural finish to ensure food safety and purity of flavor.

Care and Maintenance
- Seasoning: Before first use, we recommend lightly rubbing the wood with a food-grade mineral oil. This seals the grain, prevents staining, and protects the wood from drying out.
- Cleaning: Never soak the peel or place it in a dishwasher. Hand wash only with a damp cloth and a drop of mild soap.
- Drying: Always dry the peel upright or hanging to allow even airflow to both sides. Drying it flat can lead to warping as one side dries faster than the other.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. The integrated handle hole allows for hanging, which keeps the blade protected from surface scratches and saves counter space.
- Sanding: Over time, if the wood becomes rough from blade marks, a light sanding with fine-grit sandpaper followed by a re-application of mineral oil will restore its professional luster.
