FAQs
Can I use soap to clean the pizza stone?
No, you should never use soap. The stone is porous and will absorb the chemicals, leading to soapy-tasting food in the future.
Does the stone need to be seasoned?
Unlike cast iron, cordierite stones do not require traditional seasoning, though they will naturally darken with use.
Can I put the stone in the dishwasher?
No, the stone is not dishwasher safe. Hand wash with water only.
Why did my stone crack?
Cracking is often caused by thermal shock, such as placing a cold stone in a hot oven or running cold water over a hot stone.
What is the maximum temperature it can handle?
The stone can withstand temperatures up to 750°C.
Can I use the stone on an outdoor grill?
Yes, provided the stone is placed on the grill grate and allowed to heat up gradually with the grill.
Troubleshooting
The pizza crust is sticking to the stone
Ensure you are using enough flour or semolina on your pizza peel before sliding the dough onto the stone, and verify the stone is fully preheated.
There is smoke coming from the stone
This is likely caused by leftover food residue or oils from previous bakes burning off; scrape the surface clean once the stone is cool.
The stone shows dark spots or stains
Discoloration is a normal part of the seasoning process for a cordierite stone and does not impact performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before your first use, wipe the stone down with a dry cloth to remove any manufacturing dust. Place the stone in a cold oven and allow it to heat up gradually with the oven to prevent thermal shock. Always use a pizza peel dusted with flour or semolina to transfer food onto the stone. After baking, leave the stone inside the oven until it is completely cool to the touch. When cleaning, use only water and a scraper or a damp cloth; do not use dish soap, as the porous material will absorb the detergent, which can affect the flavor of future meals.
