How many loaves of bread?
How many loaves of bread do you want to bake in your oven? Before you start building your bread oven, you will first have to choose how many loaves you want to bake in one session. This is important for the measurements of the oven. The MOT designed a building plan for a good functioning oven, based on data from literature (see bibliography). We opted for a smaller bread oven in which you can bake about 8 loaves of bread (diameter approx. 25 cm; approx. 800 gr) in one session. Measurements of the oven ( from VANDENDAEL: 274):

Measurements of the substructure
Measurements of the substructure Size of the substructure Now that we know the size of the oven floor and the shape of the vault, we can calculate the measurements of the substructure: For the length we need the sum of: the thickness of the wall of the oven mouth (approx. 20 cm) + the length of the oven floor + the thickness of the vault ( approx. 20 cm) + the thickness of the insulation layer ( approx. 10 cm) + if necessary, the thickness of the outer wall ( approx. 20 cm), depending on if you close the rear side or not For the width we need the sum of: 2 x the thickness of the outer wall ( 2 x approx. 10-20 cm) + The width of the oven floor + 2 x the thickness of the vault ( 2 x approx. 20 cm) + 2 x the thickness of the insulation layer (2 x approx. 10 cm) + 2 x open space of minimally 1 cm between loam layer and outer wall Working height of the substructure The working height is equal to the height of the substructure plus the thickness of the oven floor. Usually it is between 80 cm...
