Wood Burning Pizza Ovens

[Nookie Bear]

Yer it’s a pro. Does pellets, wood or gas. If I had my time again I’d just go for a cheaper gas one, can’t see me ever using anything else. Being able to bring it inside is class.

You sure it’s safe to use inside ?

Pizzapp has been a game changer for me today. Made a pizza for supper and it's the best I've ever done (that was with only 3 hours proving). Didn't realise how important the salt was.

It's a game changer isn't it. Glad you're on the right path and sounds like you're making cracking pizzas. Pictures please!!

Missus had margarita

I had a salami, chilli flakes and a touch of honey after cooking. Room for improvement but so much better than my sourdough attempts. Dough was so much lighter

Best on the thread so far them

Not my style of pizza that. One I'd enjoy when pissed but otherwise nah. Owa much cheese there, too dense.

You're not following a recipe. If you want to get results you need to follow a good recipe to the gram, really. Download PizzApp and set the hydration at 62% and go from there. Five mins knead, 15 mins rest, 5 mins knead then leave it for a couple of hours RT then 48hrs in the fridge (and make sure you change the app settings to that time CT).

looks like I’ve been putting far too much yeast in. I put a full 7g dry sachet in, whereas this is saying to use like 2g max.

will try again next weekend. Thanks for the app

What percent "salt" do you input on the app ??

I had it set on the default 3% @James put a decent video earlier in the thread about it, makes complete sense what I was doing wrong now

Achieved some decent cornicioni last night considering i thought me dough had failed. How do you post a pic on here nowa days?

Metal or wood pizza peel?

Metal seems to make more sense, thin and can get under them better. Never used a wooden one mind.
Seen ones with slots but surely can’t be wise, change of ripping your dough surely

Metal or wood pizza peel?

Had both, as long as it’s not too thick it doesn’t matter too much. First one I bought was wooden and way too thick and struggled to get the pizza off and into the oven even with a decent amount of flour on.

 

[Wilfy]

I launch from a wooden peel but then use metal for turning and getting the pizza out.

Do you make the pizza on it first? Then slide it in the oven?
They had some metal ones in nico rossi when I popped in. It's great in there.

Personally I make it on the worktop then pull it onto the peel. Dunno if that’s the way you’re meant to but it seems to work. I’m just using the one that came with my oven but have been looking at metal ones with wood handles. £20 from amazon

try keep the metal peel as cool as possible so the dough doesn’t stick, keep it away from the oven

Yeah I'm trawling amazon now, had a bit of a disaster with mine tonight (they are like two small paddles that you go in from each side with) pizza was too big and flopped over the sides.

Do you find it easy enough to slide it off?

Yer I just dust it with a bit flour and a pinch of semolina
