Alfa Moderno 1 Pizze Oven, Gas

The Italian-made Alfa Moderno 1 Pizze (previously called the Alfa Nano) is Alfa Forni's original portable pizza oven. This compact oven is quick to assemble, heats to 932° F in only 10 minutes, and bakes superb pizza in just 90 seconds!

Do you need to move your pizza oven around your outdoor kitchen? The Alfa Moderno 1 Pizze weighs just 121 pounds, so it's manageable to move, especially with the optional base that includes four locking caster wheels.

Alfa One Wood or Gas Burning Pizza Oven

Wood or Gas Power

The AlfaNano is available in either a wood-burning or gas-powered option.

Wood is the fuel of choice for those who love tradition, a smoky flavor, and appreciate the clean, renewable energy of wood. There’s great satisfaction in operating a wood-fired oven, from choosing your firewood to managing the temperature for perfectly baked pizza. Read our wood-fired oven's buying guide for help in deciding if a wood-fired oven is the best option for you.

Gas power is fast and practical, which makes it the best choice for people who don’t want to spend the extra time and attention that wood fires require. Gas powered ovens are also the best choice for those who live in an area where wood fires are restricted, such as some apartment neighborhoods.

Door Opening & Baking Surface

The Alfa Nano features a 15.1" wide door opening, which means it can accommodate pizzas up to 14" in diameter. The gas model has 2.1 sq. ft. (19.6" by 15.7") of baking surface while the wood-burning model has 2.6 sq. ft. (23.6" by 15.7") of baking surface. The Alfa Nano can bake up to 4 pounds of bread at once.

Optional Base

The Alfa Nano can be purchased with a base if you don't already have a good surface for placing the oven on. The base features four locking casters, so you can easily move your oven around your outdoor cooking space. A convenient cupboard allows for storage of your propane gas tank or firewood. The base for the Alfa One comes in either a black or copper finish. The oven itself has a beautiful copper finish.

Great oven; even better customer service!
By Vicki on 11/24/2024 Verified Buyer

We just lit our first fire in our Alfa Forni Nano yesterday. There will be a bit of a learning curve to learn to use it properly but it is a top quality item. Sturdy and everything fits together as it should.

Now, can I tell you how much I love Pleasant Hill Grain? Their employees are responsive and communicate with their customers (me) throughout the ordering and shipping process and especially important, after the sale. Our oven contained a defective part. We spoke to Cindy who had us send her pictures of the good item and the defective item (it was a cart leg). She arranged the shipment of a new part (leg) the very same day after speaking with the manufacturer. It arrived at our home about five days later.

I've purchased several times from PHG and appreciate their top quality and excellent customer service. Thanks, folks!
