Witt Piccolo Rotante 16in DE Pizza oven Black
A 7 kW burner, a stone that turns and double-layered insulation.
Reaches 500 °C in about 15 minutes.
From raw dough to a crisp, finished pizza.
A C-shaped burner, a stone that turns, and a body that keeps the heat in.
The C-shaped gas burner sits at the back of the oven and spreads the heat evenly over the stone. It brings the oven to 500 °C in about 15 minutes.
The round cordierite stone is 40.5 cm across and rotates while you bake, so the pizza cooks evenly without you turning it by hand. A separate front stone sits at the opening.
The stone is turned by a brushless motor that runs at just 40 dB – close to silent – and is built for a long life. One press of the button and it keeps turning while you bake, so every side of the pizza gets the same heat from the burner.
The double-layered body heats up faster and keeps the heat in. Outside, cold-rolled steel with a heat-resistant powder coating keeps the oven durable.
Unfold the legs and the oven stands ready on the table. Fold them in again when it is time to put it away.
A knob for the flame and a button for the stone.
Press the knob in and turn it slowly anticlockwise until it clicks. The burner lights after 8–10 seconds.
Keep the knob pressed in for another 10 seconds, then let go.
Turn the knob between max and min to set the heat for your pizza.
Press the rotation button next to the knob, and the stone starts turning.
FAQ
The Witt PICCOLO Rotante 16" is a gas-powered outdoor pizza oven with a rotating 16" cordierite stone. A 7 kW C-shaped burner brings it to 500 °C in about 15 minutes, and it bakes a Neapolitan pizza in 60–90 seconds. The stone is turned by a quiet, brushless motor, so you don't have to turn the pizza yourself.
No. It's a gas oven for outdoor use only. Place it in a well-ventilated spot that is open on at least two sides or from above, away from anything that can burn. Never use it in a garage, shed, porch, under a roof or under trees, and never on a boat, in a motorhome or in a caravan.
Propane or butane (LPG) from a standard gas cylinder. The burner has an output of 7 kW. Use a fixed-pressure regulator that matches your country:
Never use an adjustable pressure regulator, like the ones used for weed burners.
No. You need a CE-approved regulator (EN 16129) and a gas hose (EN 16436) of max. 1.5 m. An adapter for hoses without a thread is included. If your regulator hose has a threaded connection, don't use the adapter.
About 0.5 kg per hour at full flame (509 g/h on butane, 500 g/h on propane). A 5 kg cylinder lasts roughly 10 hours at full power, and longer at a lower flame.
A standard LPG cylinder of max. 31 cm in width and 57 cm in height. Always store the cylinder upright and outdoors, out of reach of children.
It reaches 500 °C in about 15 minutes. At full heat, a pizza bakes in 60–90 seconds.
The round cordierite stone measures 40.5 cm (16"), so there's room for large pizzas.
Press the rotation button next to the burner knob, and the stone starts turning. A brushless motor drives it, so the pizza bakes evenly on all sides without you having to turn it with a peel.
About 40 dB, which is close to silent. The brushless motor is also built for a long life.
Five AA batteries in total: one for the electronic ignition and four for the stone rotation.
No. You set the heat with the knob, between max and min flame. To check how hot the stone is before you bake, an infrared thermometer is a handy extra.
The pizza oven, the round pizza stone, the front stone and the manual, plus a gas adapter for hoses without a thread.
The interior is stainless steel, the exterior is cold-rolled steel with a heat-resistant powder coating, and the pizza stone is cordierite. The body has double-layered insulation.
About 22 kg. The legs fold in, so it's easy to put away when you're not using it.
Black and green.
Unfold the legs and stand the oven on a stable, non-combustible surface. Insert one AA battery in the ignition and four AA batteries in the battery compartment for the rotation. Fit the round stone in the stone tray and place the front stone. Make sure the knob is set to OFF, then connect the regulator and hose, open the gas and check all connections for leaks with soapy water.
Press the knob in and turn it slowly anticlockwise until you hear a click. It takes 8–10 seconds for the gas to reach the burner. When it lights, keep the knob pressed in for another 10 seconds, then let go and set the flame. If it doesn't light, turn the knob back to OFF and wait five minutes before you try again.
Check that the four AA batteries are inserted the right way and aren't flat. Also push the front stone forward to the oven opening, so it doesn't block the round stone. If it still doesn't turn, contact customer service.
Check that the gas valve is open, that the gas cylinder isn't empty, and that the AA battery in the ignition works. If there's still no spark, contact customer service.
Every time you change the gas cylinder, and after a long break. Brush or spray soapy water on all gas connections with the gas on and the burner off. Bubbles mean a leak: turn off the gas and tighten the connection. Rinse the connections with water afterwards.
Yes. The high heat is great for bread, flatbreads and focaccia, and for searing steak or roasting vegetables in a cast iron pan.
No. Turn off the gas at the cylinder and let the oven cool down completely before you move it.
Heat the oven for about 30 minutes to burn off any residue. When the stone has cooled down, brush it off, for example with the Witt pizza oven brush. Never use water on the stone, and keep both stones dry between uses.
Yes. Remove the round stone and the front stone before you clean the inside of the oven. The stones are fragile, so handle them carefully and don't drop them.
Let the oven cool down and disconnect the gas first. Clean the inside with a little baking soda on a wet sponge. Clean the outside with mild soapy water and a cloth. Don't use scouring products, solvents or paint thinner, and never pour cold water on warm surfaces.
Disconnect the gas cylinder before you bring the oven indoors, and always store the cylinder outside. If you're not using the oven for a long time, store it dry, ideally in its original packaging. Outdoors, a cover protects it once it has cooled down. A cover isn't included.
