Initial heating
The initial heating has to be carried out very carefully, gradually increasing the temperature and usually it is performed for 2 - 3 days because the moisture has to be separated from the baking chamber and from the isolation layer.
Attention: sharply increasing the temperature in this period can lead to formation of cracks on the foundation and the cupola.
First day:
- Switch on the oven
- Decrease the power regulator to the minimum
- Set the working temperature to 100 degrees
- Leave the oven to work in these conditions for 8-10 hours
Second day:
- Switch on the oven
- Set the power regulator to 30 %
- Set the working temperature to 200 degrees
- Leave the oven to work in these conditions for 4-5 hours
- Set the power regulator to 50 %
- Set the working temperature to 250 degrees
- Leave the oven to work in these conditions for 4-5 hours
Third day:
- Switch on the oven
- Set the power regulator to 80 %
- Set the working temperature to 300 degrees
- Leave the oven to work in these conditions for 4-5 hours
- Set the power regulator to 100 %
- Set the working temperature to 330-350 degrees
At reaching this temperature regime, the oven is ready to bake standard pizza.
Attention:
- Do not install the door when the gas burner is working. The oven can be closed only when the gas burner is switched off – usually at the end of the working day.
- Usually, in the period of initial heating, drops of water start leaking from the oven, because this is a period of intensive drying – Taking into consideration of this fact, electric devices and cable are not recommended to be placed in this zone.
This is the result when it is not followed instructions. |
