About Der Merklinger
Der Merklinger develops and manufactures in Königsbrunn (Bavaria) a combined outdoor kitchen with wood fire that unites baking oven, pizza oven and grill in a single appliance. The product concept separates the fire chamber and the baking chamber, so that baking, grilling, cooking, smoking, barbecuing and braising are possible simultaneously; temperature regulation is achieved via a well-thought-out air circulation between 70 and 450 °C with controllable top and bottom heat. Production is done by hand: every oven is hand-welded, and the high-quality materials such as solid steel, stainless steel and solid larch wood legs come from local suppliers in the region. The design was awarded the German Design Award in 2021. The ovens are sold via the company's own showroom in Königsbrunn, events and the online shop, mainly to end customers and bakeries offering bread-baking courses. More than 7,000 customers already use the Merklinger.
