Have you ever looked at your pizza oven and wished it was just a little bit smarter? Ooni has, and so its new Volt 2 comes loaded with “Pizza Intelligence,” an adaptive heating system designed to deliver a more even and consistent cooking temperature.
The Volt 2 is an indoor oven, able to cook pizzas up to 13 inches in diameter, but it’s still small enough to fit on a countertop — though we’ve found other indoor pizza ovens too smoky to really use inside. Pizza Intelligence is new to the Volt 2 and uses sensor data to adjust the top and bottom heating elements, “minimizing temperature fluctuations and cold spots.” It’s a little less exciting than the name suggests.
The Volt 2 has a max temperature of 450 Celsisus (842F), right in the recommended range for cooking traditional Neapolitan pizza, which Ooni says should take about 90 seconds. That’s one of the three presets, with New York and deep-pan pizza, too, and the oven “adjusts temperature and crisping intensity” to suit each style. You can also add programmable custom presets if you prefer a different type of pie.
The Volt 2 will be available from October 1st for £499 (about $670). We’ll update this with US pricing when we have it.
