The LPG Ooni Koda 16 displays bright yellow tipped blue flames on Butane Gas and less pronounced yellow tip blue flames on Propane Gas. Natural Gas produces a much cleaner blue flame free of yellow appearance. If you have the LPG version of the Ooni Koda 16 but you don't have a Calor Patio Gas cylinder (UK) that you can use, change the regulator on the pipe to a 21mm butane regulator and you can use an existing butane cylinder with 21mm valve.
Hi great video....question about the quick connection. Does the quick connection go into the oven or into the mains line? If the quick connection goes to the main line I assume I then need a female quick connection installing at the house? Is the quick connection 3/8"?
Natural gas yields lower BTU than propane for the same gas volume ,, that is why a home gas stove converted to propane needs to have restrictors installed,,since the burners need to be set up differently , So how did you accomplish the use of natural gas on a propane designed burner ?
I have the same question as an earlier post. Do you rotate the adjustment screw 24 rotations or 6-7 rotations, which is what the instructions that came with the conversion kit said.
@@warrior15r Mine says 5-7 rotations as well. What did you end up doing and did you have any issues? I'm just setting mine up and will go with 5-7 rotations. If it seems like I'm having issues with gas flow, I guess I'll just adjust from there.
I'm not a licensed plumber, and I don't claim to have extensive gas line plumbing knowledge, but I've done some gas plumbing around my home. Looks to me like using the yellow flex hose as part of the oven flexible gas line might be a bad idea. I don't think the yellow flex hose is meant for repeated flexing. Any plumbers out there to comment on this? Other than that, I found the video to be very informative.
It's an appliance connection hose (for dryers, ovens, etc). It's for occasional flexing (as often as you service a dryer). It sits between the CSST (which is often yellow and does look similar) which is to be permanently installed behind walls and never flex after construction, and the gray outdoor appliance hook-up hoses (which are made for lots of flex). Looking at it, I sorta doubt it's the right hose for the job, and should probably be fixed. I'm not a plumber, but I did get GasTite certified to do the CSST install on my own home.
Hey!! great video! I want to get the conversion kit but I'd have to wait months to get it. From your experience, do you think that if I hire a gas fitter, will he be able to covert it? or those pieces from the kit are exclusively manufactured and necessary for the conversion. Thanks!!
Hmm good question. I'm sure you could probably get a fitting / regulator that works. You can easily still adjust the fuel flow without making those changes, however I'm not familiar enough to make an absolute recommendation. The hose itself is different as well (and has a built in quick release) which might be something you'd have to change anyway. I've already filmed a more detailed version of this with better close-ups, but I have yet to edit and upload it. As soon as I do, i'll try to address any of these concerns as well.
I have a question. I just received the gas conversion but the manual says to rotate counter clockwise 5-7 full rotations. Perhaps they changed this conversion kit. You read and count “24 full rotations”. Any idea ? Thanks
@@MostlyPizza Have not tried yet. I contacted Ooni.... Sent them your video, and they advised me to follow my manual, and they had no idea why your manual would say 24 full rotations. I've seen other posts on FB groups since, who say that 6 Full Rotations is the sweet spot. Thanks
Super interesting! I just looked at my manual and it says verbatim this "Use the included screwdriver to rotate the Valve adjuster counter-clockwise 20 full rotations" It even has a picture of the screwdriver with an (x20) right next to it. I wonder if I should roll it back a bit?
I know this video is from a few years back, but figured it was worth asking the question here. I have a natural gas ooni koda 16. The hose is way too short, just as you described in your video. How did you extend it and what parts did you use? I have one of those push carts I plan on keeping and storing the Ooni on, but would prefer some flexibility in placement so having a 6' or 10' hose would be better than the 3' one that comes in the box. Thanks so much!
I'm in the process of planning out an outdoor kitchen. New grill is going to hook up to natural gas and Im interested in this Koda 16 since it can do the same. My question is by hooking it up to natural gas is it fine to keep the cover on and leave outside when not in use? Wont there be an issue of constantly connecting and disconnecting to natural gas if say you store it somewhere else when not in use?
I have the natural gas line valve turned off whenever it's not in use with the cover on, so it shouldn't cause any concern. If you have two appliances you will be using natural gas with, I'd just get a Y splitter rated for natural gas, with some built in shut off switches. Taking the quick release valve on/off feels sturdy (like an air compressor hose, if you are familiar) so I imagine it will last awhile. I'd honestly go with a valve with a switch to stop the flow instead, though. Honestly we were planning on doing the same thing - I eventually plan to have an outdoor kitchen with a natural gas grill with the Ooni. That'll be a future project.
As far as I know, the Ooni NG conversion kit comes with everything you need. I needed to get an adapter (aka, 3/4 down to 1/2 down to 3/8th and back up to 1/2in threaded tube) in order to get it to work with my line outlet, but otherwise I didn't have to get anything else.

@JulianChristopher It's a cleaner burn without sooting of the oven walls and ceiling through the yellow tipped blue flames on butane / propane gas.
@JulianChristopher Propane does burn hotter than Natural Gas and it gets to temperature much quicker too.
Looks Amazing!
Tnku your video help me much..!!!
God bless you..!!!
Do you know the hole size on those new orifices? Is it 2.0 mm?

I had trouble disconnecting the gas ejector tube to swap out the valve (time stamp 7:23). Do you have any advice? Thanks
Dangereux !!!!!!!!!!!
I have a quick connect on my house for a Weber natural gas grill. Do I still need to do all of those connectors on the gas hose to make it work?
I have the same question as an earlier post. Do you rotate the adjustment screw 24 rotations or 6-7 rotations, which is what the instructions that came with the conversion kit said.
The downloaded instructions off the website say 20 FULL rotations, not 24. The downloaded instructions are v1.0, maybe there's a revision?
I’m confused as well. My instructions said 5-7 full rotations.
@@warrior15r Mine says 5-7 rotations as well. What did you end up doing and did you have any issues? I'm just setting mine up and will go with 5-7 rotations. If it seems like I'm having issues with gas flow, I guess I'll just adjust from there.
@@gregchandler8590 I think I settled on 3-4 because on 5-7, low flame wasn’t very low
@@warrior15r I went ahead with 5, so we'll see how that does and adjust if needed. Thanks for the reply

For what it's worth, it remained stationary and in place... But I can see it not being meant to be flexed often.

Ma la versione italiana, non può essere modificata a gas naturale?
U changed the little piece for one’s more big? Or what, I need ur help and turn 20 times the screw?
? See your gas fitting you did but I don't see any pipe thread sealant? U not worried about that?

@@MostlyPizza Thank you! I suscribed already to watch it as soon as it's posted.
@@MostlyPizza is love to see the new video if possible. I just ordered the gas conversion as they came back in stock. Thanks

Good question, i'm not entirely sure if or why it has changed. I'll have to take a look. Did you have success setting it up?

Ok going with 6
Hi, how I make a 16 inch pizza?, what you recommended?.in other videos the people say is hard make in this oven.
Hi, do you know what size the injector nozzles are for the natural gas?
Si vous avez connaissez la taille
Svp oublier pas pour le dire 👍

Thanks so much!
are you using an infrared thermometer to check temps? what temps are you getting and how long does it take to heat up after the conversion?
Yes - maxed out I can easily get 1000 F at the flam, but it drops to nearly 650 on the front (without a door)

Are you able to get it up to 950 degrees? Just wondering if the natural gas performs as well as the propane.
I got the stone up over 1000 F on a couple of occasions., It got very hot!
La garantie kaput!!!!!!!!
Music is louder than the narration,
Yep. This was one of my first videos. Appreciate the feedback!
when converting to NG do you need to add a regulator in addition to the Ooni NG conversion kit?
As far as I know, the Ooni NG conversion kit comes with everything you need. I needed to get an adapter (aka, 3/4 down to 1/2 down to 3/8th and back up to 1/2in threaded tube) in order to get it to work with my line outlet, but otherwise I didn't have to get anything else.
Has anyone tried using this conversion kit with the Ooni Karu 16?
Stopped watching 1 minute into the video. Music way too loud.
I.... agree. lol. It was one of the first videos I made and was still figuring it out.
