The Primo 60 Kit comes with insulation materials and a decorative archway and will give you everything a wood fired oven should offer; once built in, the Primo 60 Kit oven is perfect for roasts, bread, pizza, fish and really excels at slow roasting. The oven remains hot for over 24 hours, meaning the residual heat the next day from the previous nights firing can be utilised to cook in again with no further firing. The Primo 60 Go doesn’t have the same heat retention properties as the Primo 60 Kit and is for the wood fired enthusiast that is not as concerned about overnight roasting.

The pre fabricated, decorative archway included in the oven kit can also be painted using paint suitable for external use to compliment your design requirements and preferences. Please see the Manuals and Videos section for installation and build manuals and the Gallery for design inspiration.

The Primo 60 Kit: Heat Up Times & Heat Retention

The Primo 60 Kit oven heats up quickly, reaching maximum cooking temperatures within 20 minutes. Your very first firing will take slightly longer, this is normal. Due to the nature of the installation, with additional insulation materials, the oven will retain its heat for up to 24 hours without the need to add additional wood. Please see the Primo 60 Kit statistics chart above for oven properties.

The Primo 60 Kit: Installation

The Primo 60 Kit is designed for outdoor use only.

The Primo 60 Kit: Flue Placement

The Primo 60 Kit’s oven flue is placed outside the oven cooking chamber. This smart design means that when the door is closed, the flue vent is shut off. This flue feature is crucial for maximum heat retention, low wood consumption and especially useful for baking and other cooking techniques in a wood fired oven. Ovens with centralised flue vents in the oven dome result in sub-standard heat retention and higher fuel consumptions. Please note: for a black/coloured flue finish, apply stove paint.

The Primo 60 Kit’s Material Composition

The Primo 60 Kit’s oven dome is made from an insulating aggregate, meaning excellent heat retention. Along with the added insulation materials, this Primo 60 Kit’s efficiency is unbeatable. The Primo 60 Kit’s oven base is made from a dense commercial grade material with the added benefit of the insulation board supplied for the underside of the cooking floor. The cooking floor therefore stores heat for longer, ensuring crispy pizza bases and excellent cooking ability for hours on end.

The Primo 60 Kit: Reinforcement

The Primo 60 Kit oven is reinforced with Micro Mesh Technology, exclusive to The Stone Bake Oven Company. Micro Mesh Technology sees a unique mix of fibres embedded in the oven material, which form a complex mesh within the oven. These fibres allow the oven to expand and contract whilst heating and cooling, ensuring the structural integrity of your oven. Micro- Mesh Technology results in an oven that is designed to last and if you plan to move house or relocate your Primo 60 oven, these fibres will make it safe to do so.

The Primo 60 Kit: Weather and Frost Proof

The Primo 60 Kit oven is completely protected from the elements by the additional building work completed around the outside of the core of the oven. This means that you don’t need to worry about applying any sealant, or weatherproofing agent, to your ovenl.

The Primo 60 Kit: Assembly

The Primo 60 Kit oven is designed for easy installation. The oven dome is in one piece (100kg), and the two-part oven base (2x 50kg) makes for easy manoeuvring. The base fits together with a tongue and groove joint and the dome sits in a recess in the base. The insulation materials provided are installed below the oven base and around the oven dome. The pre fabricated, decorative archway included in the oven kit can be rested in front of the oven mouth. If necessary, the edge can then be sealed using a high heat silicone mastic.
