How can I check the temperature in my wood fired oven?

The most accurate method for checking the temperature in wood fired oven is with a hand-held digital laser thermometer. These can be purchased from The Alfresco Factory.

Alternatively, you can throw a pinch of flour into the oven and count how long it takes to burn and smoke.  A very hot wood fired oven floor (the perfect temperature for cooking pizzas) will scorch flour in a few seconds.
