The Science
The Spring Oven does what no other Ovenware pot can. IT is a self steaming vessel that can create the ideal environment for bread baking. Keeping all the steam inside the vessel allows your home oven to run at high temperatures without being affected by the cooling effect of steam.
A CHANNEL OF WATER SURROUNDing the PLATFORM STEAMS DURING THE COOKING PROCESS. the product can then fill up with steam keeping the surface of the dough moist to allow for the bread to rise to its full potential.
The DESIGN MIMICS THE HUMID COOKING PROCESS OF PROFESSIONAL STEAM INJECTION OVENS. The Product is made from Slip Cast Terracotta, an Ideal material for radiating heat and adding flavour to the bread. Terracotta is also a beautiful and elegant material that matches The Tajine-inspired shape of the Spring Oven. A shape also purposely designed to SEND CONDENSED STEAM BACK INTO WATER CHANNEL and retain the high humidity baking environment.
Manufacture
Manufacture
Originally designed, prototyped and Produced in England Using a traditional Terracotta Slip Casting Process. In 2019 we began working with high end Portuguese terracotta manufacturers, to scale up our production capacity and fine tune our quality control. Still using a traditional slip casting process with hand finishing, production cannot be rushed. each product requires the time and care of professional ceramicists to create the outstanding finish of the final product.
