Ooni's new super-sized pizza oven, the Koda 2 Max is designed to
accommodate every taste, all at once
EDINBURGH, Scotland, April 16,
2024 /CNW/ - Today, Ooni Pizza Ovens, the
creator and leader of the home pizza oven market, launched a
24-inch pizza oven with a next-generation gas system allowing
consumers to cook multiple pizzas, 20″ NYC-style pizzas and dual
dishes or pizza styles at once. The Koda 2 Max is built to feed the
entire family, with zonal cooking allowing for nonstop side-by-side
bakes and a digital thermometer hub with smartphone
connectivity.
"We're thrilled to unveil the Koda 2 Max, our biggest and most
versatile oven yet, designed to accommodate every taste, all at
once," said Kristian Tapaninaho, Founder and Co-CEO of Ooni. "With
its seamless gas-only plug-and-play operation, this oven builds
upon the success of one of our best-sellers, the Koda 16. It's a
testament to our unwavering commitment to pushing the boundaries of
pizza perfection, backed by thousands of hours of rigorous testing
and understanding."
The Koda 2 Max has a 24-inch cordierite baking surface that is
capable of reaching 950 ℉ (500 ℃). The expansive oven can bake one
20-inch New York-style pizza, two 12-inch pizzas, or three 10-inch
pizzas at the same time. Ooni's thickest 20 mm cordierite baking
surface stays hotter longer while maximizing fuel efficiency.
Ooni's team of designers and engineers spent over 8,000 hours
developing the Koda 2 Max's state-of-the-art G2 Gas Technology
which delivers incredibly even heat across the oven for one-turn
pizza cooking, reduced heating time between cooks, and ultimate
ease of use. Two powerful, independently controlled gas burners
allow for side-by-side, dual-zone cooking at a range of
temperatures. This makes it possible to cook different styles of
pizza simultaneously, or pizza and something else entirely. Slow
cook a deep-dish pizza on one side while firing a NY-style pie on
the other, or sear salmon on the left while flame-cooking kebabs on
the right.
"This oven is what pizza party dreams are made of," said
Darina Garland, Co-Founder and
Co-CEO of Ooni. "But between the large cooking space and the
versatile dual burners, pizza is only the beginning. The Koda 2 Max
can precisely cook an entire meal of main and side dishes to
absolute perfection."
A front-mounted digital temperature hub gives air temperature
readings from either side of the oven, so you know exactly when to
launch your pizzas. Dive deeper with a pair of digital food probes
that take internal temperature readings of meats as they roast.
For the first time, users can remotely monitor the oven
temperature using the new Ooni Connect™ functionality in the Ooni
app. Syncing the Ooni oven to the app allows access to real-time
cooking notifications, temperature tracking, product updates, tips,
and more. For the ultimate pizza night experience, just add water
and oil to Ooni's New York-Style Pizza Dough Mix for thin and
crispy 20-inch New York-style pizza bases in as little as three
hours.
Ooni's Koda 2 Max will be available for pre-order beginning
May 28th here:
