FAQs
What is the main benefit of using this pizza stone?
The main benefit is achieving a perfectly crispy, stone-baked pizza crust by providing superior heat retention and even distribution, similar to professional pizza ovens.
Is this pizza stone compatible with all pizza ovens?
This stone is specifically designed for Cozze® 13” Pizza Ovens (models 90348 and 90349). Its dimensions are 34.5 x 34.5 cm, so compatibility with other brands is not guaranteed.
How do I clean the Cozze Pizza Stone?
The stone is dishwasher safe. Allow it to cool completely, then place it in the dishwasher. Alternatively, scrape off residue with a spatula or stiff brush once cooled.
Do I need to preheat the stone?
Yes, preheating is essential. Allow the stone to heat up with the oven for at least 20-30 minutes at the maximum temperature for optimal crispiness.
Can I use this stone in a standard home oven?
This stone is optimized for high-heat pizza ovens like the Cozze. While it might fit some standard ovens, it's not designed for the typical temperature range or heat distribution of most home ovens.
What material is the pizza stone made of?
The stone is made of high-quality cordierite, known for its excellent heat retention and durability at high temperatures.
Will the stone discolor over time?
Yes, it is normal for cordierite stones to discolor or develop dark spots with use due to high heat and food contact. This does not affect its performance.
Troubleshooting
Pizza sticking to the stone
Ensure the stone is fully preheated and lightly dusted with flour or semolina before placing the pizza. Use a pizza peel for transferring.
Unevenly cooked pizza
Verify the stone is properly centered and has been preheated for the recommended duration. Ensure the oven temperature is stable.
Stone develops cracks or chips
Avoid sudden temperature changes (e.g., placing a cold stone in a hot oven or vice-versa). Handle with care; cordierite can be brittle when cold.
Stone does not seem to get hot enough
Allow for a longer preheating period (30+ minutes). Ensure the oven is reaching its maximum temperature and the stone is not blocked by oven racks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
