What Encinitas does
to a pizza oven.

At the end of each May the San Dieguito Heritage Museum holds a Deep Pit BBQ, and each September it hosts a Lima Bean Faire and cook-off.

German immigrants homesteading under the 1862 Homestead Act founded the Olivenhain Colony late in the 19th century, in what is now eastern Encinitas.

Encinitas households buying firewood can use the county air district's checks for seasoned wood: dark, cracked ends, light weight, a sharp crack when two pieces meet and bark that peels easily.

On the water

Salt spray from the ocean or a bay settles on a pizza oven's steel door, hinges and flue, and pitting starts within a season, so near salt water the oven is rinsed with fresh water once cool and its door and chimney cap are the first parts inspected.

Mixed housing

Streets of old and new houses hold pizza ovens of every age, from a mason-built brick dome decades old to a new countertop gas model with a digital thermometer, and the technician carries parts and refractory mortar for both.

Backyard pizza nights

Pizza ovens near a pool catch splashes of chlorinated water on their steel and on the dome, and water soaking into a hot dome crackles and spalls its surface, so the oven is kept covered or placed where splashes cannot reach it.

When a pizza oven
cannot wait in Encinitas.

In Encinitas as anywhere, these four put whoever stands at the oven's mouth, and the building around the flue, at risk, and they mean the gas or the power stays off until we arrive: a gas smell at the oven or its supply line, flame escaping the mouth or showing behind the panel or up the chimney, a hot electrical or burning smell, and smoke that fills the room instead of leaving by the flue.
