Good Machine if you do this,
By
This review is from: Giles and Posner Stonebake Oven Red
After four attempts I have got to grips with making a great pizza with this machine. The instructions that come with it are a bit of nonsense really - you need to allow yourself time to try the dual controls to find which combination of upper and lower heat suits your pizza dough.My first attempt resulted in the dough sticking to the stone. I looked on the internet and discovered that cooks recommend the use of cornmeal flour or polenta flour to stop this happening. It makes sense because the idea of the stone base is that it absorbs moisture - the flour helps it to do so. I had some pasta flour which is a bit more grainy than regular bread flour and it has done the trick. I sprinkle some on the stone before putting the dough base and have had no problems at all. I also cook my dough base for a few minutes on 'lower' setting, which cooks the base from underneath. I check to see if it is crisping up a little before switching to 'dual' for about three to four minutes and then add the topping. These settings produce an amazing pizza - the base I prefer is pretty thin - dough rolled out to about 4mm. It tends to puff up when heated so it is advisable to check by lifting the lid (with care). It may sound complicated but it isn't - in fact it is very enjoyable to cook pizza at the table - the machine is a good talking point. I submit this review because I would like any future purchasers not to be put off - just remember to use a grainy flour on your stone - and don't get it too wet when you wash up. I just scrape mine off and rub flour on it to get any bits off it, I've learnt it doesn't do it any good to be immersed in water.

Stonebake Pizza Oven,
By Joanne Taylor "Joanne" (Newcastle, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Giles and Posner Stonebake Oven Red
I Love my new Pizza Oven, it's fantastic. It cooks my pizza's in minutes, just the way I like them. They don't go soggy in the middle like in a conventional oven, and I always get it cooked perfect all over, as opposed to burnt at one side like my conventional oven used to do! The rotating stone base gives my pizza's an amazing Italian taste! I'd reccommend it to any Pizza fan!

Great peice of kit and good fun to make your own,

This review is from: Giles and Posner Stonebake Oven Red
My wife bought me this pizza oven some months ago and I have to say, it's revolutionised the intake of my favourite food. It's great fun to make your own pizza's, they're healthier and cheaper than a take away too and the fun really starts when you make your own pizza dough too. Even my Italian has improved! This is a really easy to use peice of kit and not too large (you will need a decent space in your kitchen to show it off though). The pizza's are cooked to perfection and the mechansim flips from overhead or underneath grill, or both, at exactly the right times to get the perfect base and nicely but not overly cooked top. This should be in every blokes kitched, next to the mini Peroni fridge.
