Have been wanting a pizza oven to perfect the style of pizza we love but can’t find within reasonable drive. We have dozens of pizza places in the area and all are just not good. When I found this oven for a fraction more f the cost of the other brands I thought why not?
It took a few tries to figure it out, but now each member of my family is a pizza expert. A dough hydration of 60%- ish works perfectly for us when using bread flour. It’s not too slack and flimsy as higher hydration dough. Loads of flour on the board while adding sauce and toppings helps keep it from sticking on the peel to slide in. Go easy on the wet ingredients as it can become wet and sticky, not sliding in well.
We heat the oven on high for 15 minutes or so, then turn it down to low just before putting the pizza in. This way the stone is scorching hot, but the flames don’t blacken and overcook the top. Leaving the dial too high scorches the toppings.
We time it to 20 seconds per “turn”. The side lever only turns the stone inside 270 degrees around so we start as far foreword as possible, count to 20, move it to the middle, count to 20, then pull it all the way toward the oven door for the last 20 seconds. This results in a near perfect Neapolitan style pie for us. Between pizzas we crank it back to high to keep that stone scorching hot.
The only thing so far that has broken is the door handle. The plastic at the metal junction broke clean off on our third use. I’ll fabricate something better, and more decorative one of these days. For now a pair of locking pliers gets the job done.
