WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE YOU START USING THE PIZZA STONE:
• The pizza stone is porous, unglazed and fragile.
• The pizza stone must be gradually heated, otherwise it will crack.
• The pizza stone must cool gradually, otherwise it will crack.
• If the stone is stored in a cold place, allow it to reach room temperature before use.
• Never take the pizza stone out of a hot oven. Also not with oven gloves on or with the removal handle.
The take-out handle will damage the stone and oven gloves cannot protect your hands from the heat
of the stone
• The stone will become increasingly dark due to use. This is how it should be and does not need to
be cleaned. Never use soapy water or a dishwasher. You can optionally use a putty knife to remove
visible dirt. Then rinse with lukewarm water and let it dry before you use the stone again.
