Ooni Hardwood Pellets

While you can technically use other food-grade hardwood pellets, Ooni pellets are specifically formulated with a moisture content of less than 10%. Using pellets with higher moisture content can lead to inconsistent heat, excessive ash, and potential clogging in the gravity-fed hopper.

A standard bag of pellets typically lasts for several cooking sessions, but consumption depends on your target temperature and how long you keep the oven running. Generally, you can expect to use about 1 to 1.5 pounds of pellets per hour of cooking.

These pellets are designed for a clean, efficient burn, which results in minimal ash production compared to standard firewood. While you will see some smoke during the initial ignition, the high-heat environment of the oven ensures that the pellets burn cleanly throughout your cooking session.

Yes, these are 100% sustainable oak hardwood pellets with no additives, fillers, or chemicals. They are completely food-safe and designed to impart a natural, wood-fired flavor to pizzas, meats, fish, and vegetables.

Pellets are highly sensitive to moisture, which can ruin their burn quality. Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally in a sealed container or the original bag kept in a weatherproof bin, to ensure they stay dry and ignite easily.
