Improvements to the brick ovens I build often are the result of a new or different location challenge.

Wood set for the test firing |
This most recent build required that I build the oven core outside before opening the wall between the oven mouth and the room in which the bakers would work.
The result, which I may carry forward in future projects, was a three arch design. It also resulted in a keystone design that is new to me (few masonry designs are new to history).

Perfect draft as evidenced by blackened area around flue |
 |
Oven dome at full temp. Wood box stuccoed. Double doors. Note air channels at sides of mouth. Carpenters will finish drywall around oven. |
