Is the food probe included?
Yes, the Ooni Karu 2 Pro comes with a food probe for precise temperature monitoring when roasting meats or other dishes.
What kind of wood should I use?
For best results, use dry, seasoned hardwood. Avoid treated lumber or softwoods, which can produce excessive smoke and creosote.
How do I clean the oven?
After the oven has cooled, brush out ash and debris from the cooking chamber. Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. The glass door can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap.
Troubleshooting
Oven not reaching desired temperature
Ensure the fuel tray is adequately filled with dry wood/charcoal. Check for proper airflow; ensure vents are open. If using gas, verify the gas supply and connection are secure.
Uneven cooking or hot spots
Rotate the pizza halfway through cooking. Adjust the fuel load or position to promote more even heat distribution. Experiment with different fuel types.
Ooni Connect app not connecting
Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your smartphone and the oven's display is powered on. Try restarting both the oven display and your smartphone. Check for app updates.
Soot buildup on the glass door
This can occur with certain types of wood or insufficient airflow. Try using smaller, drier pieces of hardwood and ensure the air vents are adjusted correctly. Run the oven at a high temperature for a short period to help burn off residue.
Food probe not reading temperature
Ensure the food probe is correctly inserted into the oven and securely connected to the Ooni Connect Hub. Check the probe for any damage. Restart the app and oven display.
