Dean , do not use your IFBs on the inside , they are great under the floor but have hardly any of the mass you want to make your oven work. Sell the extras to a potter or blacksmith and use perlite or vermiculite for your pour in insulation . if you can afford it ceramic fiber is an excellent 1st layer on top of your bricks

I have a whole lot of IFB’s ( Insulating Fire Brick of the rating K23 and K26. They are of the softer type than the solid hard type which have a maximum range of 3000 Deg F.. I do want the bricks to hold the heat for cooking the pizza and breads. Should I just use my red…solid bricks instead and just use the IFB bricks for insulation. I just don’t want to chance having my bricks spalling or something terrible like that! Please…What would be the best thing to di?

There are a lot of Red Clay Bricks in my neighbourhood. I like buildings made of red brick, but some of them need to be just washed up, cause red bricks easily catch dirt from the air.

Red Clay Bricks are awesome. I got a whole bunch of those for free from a friend recently and they really perform extraordinarily. Highly recommended.

I remember that my auntie made a grill from red clay bricks. She put a few red bricks one on another along two sides of the camp-fire and put a sheet metal on them. It was the simpliest grill I’ve ever seen. And the best, also.

I would buy used firebricks and red-clay bricks. Maybe for some purposes it’s ok but not to build anything solid.

Here in Denmark most old houses are built from those bricks, so obtaining these bricks should be no problem at all. There are even some producers still of ‘old’ style bricks that produce handmade bricks to use when in need for old houses. They could be a nice alternative if you dont want to look at the weathered old bricks, but still want an old style looking oven.

For info only, I guess shippting them to AU, would be insane.
