Gozney Tread Off Black Pizza Oven

Gozney Tread: made to take with you

The Gozney Tread Off Black was developed as the most portable pizza oven within the current Gozney series. The oven combines a compact size of approximately 41.8 cm wide, 48.4 cm deep, and 32 cm high with a weight of only 13.5 kg.

This makes the Tread an interesting option if you not only want to bake pizza at home but also want to take the oven with you to, for example, a holiday destination, campsite, or other suitable outdoor location. The Tread runs exclusively on propane and accommodates pizzas up to 12 inches, approximately 30 cm.

Up to 500 °C with a lateral gas flame

The Gozney Tread can reach temperatures of around 500°C . The side gas burner creates a rolling flame along the oven cavity and provides powerful top heat during baking.

You can easily regulate the flame with the rotary knob. This allows you to use the oven at a high temperature for pizza, but also reduce the heat when a dish requires a little more time.

The Tread is designed to heat up relatively quickly. Depending on the conditions, allow approximately 15 to 25 minutes . When baking pizza, always check the temperature of the stone as well, and not just the temperature in the oven.

12-inch pizza and a 12 mm cordierite stone

The Tread accommodates one pizza up to 12 inches , approximately 30 cm. The removable baking surface is made of cordierite and is 12 mm thick.

The relatively thin stone suits the mobile nature of the Tread well. It helps the oven heat up quickly while simultaneously limiting the total weight.

Who is the Gozney Thread suitable for?

The Tread is particularly interesting when portability plays an important role. If you want a Gozney that stays in virtually the same place at home, the Arc Lite might be the more logical choice. However, if you want to take the oven with you regularly, the Tread clearly has the better credentials.

At 13.5 kg, the oven remains easy to handle, while still providing the high temperatures and gas control you expect from a Gozney pizza oven.

Thanks to its compact size, Tread is also an interesting option if you do not want to permanently dedicate a lot of space to a pizza oven.

Gozney Tread or Arc Lite?

The Tread and Arc Lite are both gas-fired pizza ovens for pizzas up to 12 inches. However, they are designed for a different use.

The Arc Lite is primarily a compact pizza oven for home use. The Tread is more robust and specifically designed to be moved and transported frequently. If you are mainly looking for an oven for a fixed spot on the patio, the Arc Lite is a logical choice. If you are looking for maximum flexibility, the Tread is a better fit.

More than just baking pizza

Although the Tread is primarily a pizza oven, you can also use the adjustable high temperature for other preparations. Think, for example, of flatbreads, vegetables, or smaller preparations in suitable heat-resistant cookware.

A Tread works differently from a kamado barbecue or ceramic BBQ . A kamado excels at grilling, smoking, and slow cooking. The Tread, on the other hand, focuses on mobility, a hot cooking surface, and powerful top heat. As a result, both complement each other well for outdoor cooking.

Gozney Tread Adventure Stand

If you want to create a stable workspace on the go or in the garden, you can combine the Tread with the Gozney Tread Adventure Stand .

This stand has been specially developed for the Tread and features four independently adjustable legs. This allows you to place the oven stably, even on an uneven outdoor surface.

Accessories for the Gozney Tread

Accessories that are equally compact and practical suit a portable pizza oven. The Gozney 12-inch pizza peel with a short handle is specifically suitable for working with a compact oven such as the Tread.

For extra workspace, there is also the Gozney Tread Roof Rack with Server . With this, you create an extra spot for preparation and serving at the Tread.

A pizza peel and infrared thermometer are also practical tools for turning your pizza and checking the stone temperature.

Gozney Tread Off Black or Olive?

The Tread is available at BBQ Valley in Off Black and Olive. Technically, both versions are identical. The difference lies in the color.

This Off Black version has a dark, calm finish. If you prefer the green version, take a look at the Gozney Tread Olive .

Maintenance of the Gozney Thread

At high temperatures, a lot of baked-on residue on the inside can burn off spontaneously. Allow the oven to cool down completely after use and carefully remove any remaining loose residue with a soft brush.

For the exterior, use warm soapy water and a soft, non-abrasive cloth. For more stubborn dirt, you can use a non-corrosive and bleach-free cleaner. Avoid abrasive cleaning agents and scouring pads.

Protect the Tread from rain when not in use for extended periods, and always allow the oven to cool down completely before covering or storing it.

Good pizza dough for the Tread

Even with a compact pizza oven, the dough determines a large part of the final result. Proper fermentation and processing help to achieve a light crust and a well-baked base.

Warranty on the Gozney Tread

For private use, a standard 2-year manufacturer's warranty applies. If you register the Tread with Gozney within 60 days of purchase, the warranty can be extended to a limited warranty of up to 5 years. Different warranty periods apply to certain parts.

Therefore, register the oven in good time and keep the proof of purchase.
