Problems with little dirt crumbles
After getting some great advice in this forum, I built a Denzer style mud oven, and started baking in it a few weeks ago. As I get more and more experience with it, and add features and equipment, I have been able to make better and better bread, as well as cooking with the retained heat after I am done baking. But I am having some trouble with little spritzes of dirt falling down from the ceiling. Which I don't mind except when I have bread baking inside. I am not worried about the structure. The dome is over 4 inches thick and I have put on a new coat or two here and there. I have taken to covering the top of my bread with parchment paper to protect it from getting dirty while it's cooking. I haven't seen any references to this on this list or elsewhere. Has anyone had his problem, and if so what did you do? Thanks! -Varda
