Il Faggetto vs Firewood Logs

il Faggetto is the ultimate wood fuel for pizza ovens. Designed from the ground up as the perfect food-grade wood fuel for wood-fired ovens, this patented wood briquette is made from 100% dry beech, and manufactured using the latest briquetting technology. They marry together the best of tradition with science and technology. They are chemically and bacteriologically certified for the cooking of food.

Because of the low moisture content and consistent nature of the briquette, they burn hot and consistent each time.

Our unique process of particle size selection and briquetting modifies the combusion balance between conventive and radiant heat. This means you need less quantity of briquettes to generate the heat for the pizza oven compared to firewood logs, and maintains the oven at a constant temperature. Briquettes will typically produce 20-50% more heat for the same weight. This makes them very cost-effective compared to firewood logs.

il Fagetto has been tested and endorsed by leading oven manufacturers in Italy and around the world, as well as being the only fuel to meet the strict criteria to be approved by Vera Pizza Napoletana. They are perfect for fixed and mobile wood-fired ovens, domestic and commercial.
