The Bakers Pride® Il Forno Classico FC-616 brings together the ambiance of a traditional brick oven with the efficiency and control of modern gas technology. Designed for high-volume operations and exhibition-style kitchens, the FC-616 features a steel-reinforced arched opening with a visible open-flame burner, creating dramatic presentation while offering easy loading and unloading of pizzas.
This model is equipped with a 10" deck height and a Cordierite baking deck for superior heat retention, moisture absorption, and consistent results. Independent top and bottom heat dampers provide fine-tuned temperature balance, while an optional brick-lined ceiling boosts top heat intensity, reduces bake times, and enhances recovery.
Built for demanding commercial environments, the FC-616 is constructed with a stainless steel exterior, a fully welded .25" angle iron frame, and aluminized steel baking chamber. Operators can choose to integrate the oven behind a decorative brick, stone, or tile façade for a traditional aesthetic, or showcase it in stainless steel or with black-powder-coated panels and hardwood door handles. Fully insulated for energy efficiency, the FC-616 can also be stacked on Bakers Pride Y or D series deck ovens to expand production capacity.
