The Valoriani Indirekt pizza oven shows its strengths when not only pizza but especially bread and braised dishes are on the menu. By separating the firebox and baking chamber and with Valoriani Forni’s patented air-circulation system, you can also cook pasta, lasagne and other dishes that require long, even heat.
What sets the Valoriani Indirekt apart
- Separated firebox and baking chamber for controlled heat in the cooking space.
- Even, long-lasting heat — ideal for bread and braised dishes.
- Versatile applications: pizza, pasta, lasagne and slow-cooked dishes.
Assembly kit or preassembled: the options
The Valoriani Indirekt is available in several versions:
- Assembly kit (pizza oven kit) for self-build — for experienced DIYers. The original Valoriani insulation is recommended and can be ordered at the same time.
- Preassembled oven — delivered fully assembled and ready to use. Colours such as White, Terracotta and Anthracite are available; custom colours can be requested.
Overview: typical assembly process
Details may vary by model. The following sequence provides a general guide for the assembly kit:
1. Prepare the location and base
Create a stable, level foundation and plan space for the oven and flue.
2. Position and align the oven elements
Dry-fit the baking-chamber and body elements and check the fits before final fixing.
3. Install the flue
Set the flue connection neatly and align it without stress.
4. Apply the insulation
Apply Valoriani’s recommended original insulation evenly to minimise heat loss.
5. Cladding and finish
Construct the outer shell and apply the desired colour finish — e.g. White, Terracotta or Anthracite.
6. Allow to dry and commission
After full drying, start with gentle warm-up phases and increase the temperature gradually.
Practical tips
- Dry run: Before the final assembly, set all parts once without binding material and check the fit.
- Careful sealing: Work the joints neatly — even heat will reward you during baking.
- Gentle start-up: The first firing in stages helps to drive out residual moisture and avoid stresses.

A supplementary video guide is available that clearly demonstrates the process.
Who is the Indirekt suitable for?
The oven is recommended for those who, in addition to pizza, regularly bake bread and prepare braised dishes. The indirect design supports long, even baking and cooking processes.
