Built for Indian service.
Cupola keeps the operational details visible: fuel, capacity, finish, and fit, so buyers can compare by service need instead of guessing from lifestyle imagery.
The Cupola difference

A fixed-catalogue Cupola oven built for Indian restaurant operators who need proven heat, local support expectations, and a cleaner online buying path.
Wood-fired character, gas control.
Manual gas and wood-fired operation support the practical fuel reality of Indian commercial kitchens while preserving the flavour and theatre operators want.
Fixed catalogue, faster decisions.
Choose from a clear model line instead of entering a bespoke specification cycle. Cupola is built for operators who need confidence without weeks of consultation.

How it works
Buying a Cupola oven is intentionally straightforward.
No showroom visit. No long sales process. No custom drawings unless you are moving into Marco Cappiotti's bespoke range.
Step 1 - Choose your category
Self-select between portable, outdoor, commercial steel, or brick.
Portable ovens are for home cooks, balconies, and small catering. Outdoor and catering models are for farmhouses, events, and mobile service. Commercial steel ovens are for cafes, cloud kitchens, and restaurants. Brick ovens are for pizzerias, hotels, breweries, and permanent installations with higher daily volume.
Cupola uses standardised sizes and finishes. There are no custom dimensions, no custom tiles, and no bespoke finishes in the Cupola range. That is how the company keeps quality high, pricing clear, and delivery predictable.
Step 2 - Message us on WhatsApp
Share your space dimensions, daily pizza target, fuel preference, and budget.
The team will recommend a model, share specifications, pricing, and timeline within a day. If your space needs a concrete floor, LPG connection, chimney planning, or a permanent brick installation, that guidance comes before you pay.
No showroom visits. No sales rep calls. Just answers.
Step 3 - Pay and schedule delivery
Once the specifications are confirmed, payment is by QR code or bank transfer.
Steel ovens follow a two-week build-and-ship timeline. Brick ovens take four weeks total, including on-site assembly by the Cupola team. Portable ovens may ship immediately when the right model is in warehouse stock.
Step 4 - Setup
Portable and steel ovens arrive ready to use. The customer self-installs with the required concrete pad, safe ventilation, and LPG connection.
Brick ovens are assembled on site by Cupola's team over about a week. A handover walkthrough is included, covering startup, daily operation, basic care, firing habits, and how to protect the cooking stones.
Proper maintenance of a wood-fired oven involves slow preheating with dry hardwood and maintaining cleanliness around the cooking stones. Avoid using water on hot cooking stones, because sudden cooling can cause thermal shock and cracking.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly can I start cooking?
Portable and steel ovens are typically two weeks from order to first pizza, depending on warehouse stock and delivery location.
Brick ovens take four weeks, including on-site assembly. Brick units also need the correct base, space, ventilation, and a slow first firing process before regular cooking.
What if I need full customisation?
Custom dimensions, custom tiles, and bespoke finishes are Marco Capriotti's range.
Cupola is the standardised, faster-delivery option: same engineering principles, fixed configurations, fixed finishes, and clearer pricing. The savings come from standardisation, not weaker materials.
How does Cupola compare to imported home pizza ovens?
Imported home pizza ovens from brands like Ooni and Gozney can work well in the conditions they were designed for, but many are built around European propane and lighter home use.
Cupola is engineered and built in India for local LPG, Indian weather, Indian kitchen usage, and local service. Build specs such as brick thickness, insulation, dome geometry, and heat retention are closer to commercial standards than hobbyist ones.
If you are making a few pizzas a month, a small imported portable oven may be enough. If you are serving customers, running events, or firing the oven daily, heat retention, capacity, serviceable parts, and aftercare matter more.
Do you offer financing?
Financing terms are to be confirmed. Standard payment is by QR code or bank transfer once the model, specifications, and delivery timeline are agreed.
Can I see an oven before buying?
There are no showrooms. Cupola is WhatsApp-first and low-touch to keep the process efficient.
The team can share videos of the model you are considering and, where possible, connect you with existing installations near you. You can also request specifications, photos, and setup guidance before confirming.
Things that look like problems but aren't
A few honest notes from years of installing and supporting these ovens, so the first quirk does not worry you.
Hairline gaps in the brick floor can be normal.
Brick expands and contracts with heat. Small movement in the cooking floor is not automatically a defect.
Some smoke escape can happen during the first few firings.
New brick and refractory material release moisture as they dry out. Slow preheating helps protect the oven and improve curing.
Indian LPG runs dirtier than European propane.
Plan on cleaning the burner every few months, especially in commercial service. Burner cleaning supports flame quality, safety, efficiency, and precise temperature control.
Knobs and valves are serviceable in place.
Parts can ship across India, so a serviceable component does not mean replacing the whole oven.
Cooking stones should be cleaned dry.
Simple cleaning of cooking stones can be done with a brass-bristled brush, as extreme heat will burn away food residue. Do not pour water on hot cooking stones; thermal shock can crack the stone or floor.
