This pizza stone (Biscotto) is used, among other things, in the electric pizza oven from Effeuno as a replacement for original refractory pizza stone. Compared to refractory stones, Biscotto stones have better thermal properties (low thermal conductivity) to retain and distribute heat evenly over the entire surface of the stone. In addition, it will attract moisture from the pizza dough which results in the possibility of higher temperatures and shorter baking times for pizza. The Biscotto stones are manually produced in Naples by a real craft company with roots far back in history and proud traditions in the production of floors for pizza ovens and from a special clay blend mixed with volcanic ash using a centuries-old method. The Biscotto floor provides a more even heat advantage in the floor and enables pizza baking at temperatures over 450 degrees Celsius on the floor without scorched pizza, which thus leads to reduced baking time and a juicier result.
