What oven only goes to 200C? I live in Canada (where we use C for everything except cooking, which we use F for) and pretty much everything I cook in the oven is at 218C or above. 200C isn’t even hot enough to bake frozen French fries properly without drying them out.
My small pizza oven goes to 400C. Everything else is not enough for good pizza. Cooking time for a pizza is 2 to 3 minutes. With that I’ll get a nice leopard pattern on the dough.
My household oven goes up to 300C but just because it supports pyrolysis. (Best thing, I bought it used from Kleinanzeigen for Eur 50 after about a year of searching for a pyrolysis oven that was sold for cheap). Running Pyrolysis about 4 times a year, so the cost is reasonable but the oven still is CLEAN.
It’s a good thing you only spent 50 euros on your pyrolysis oven. I used to use that feature on my old oven until it was destroyed by it.
I believe the excessive heat from the cleaning cycle rapidly accelerates the ageing of the electronic components on the oven’s main circuit board. Electrolytic capacitors in particular are susceptible to failure from heat exposure.
Jeff Varasano explains how you can defeat the lock on your self clean oven and gain the ability to use that high temperature for baking pizza. He got so good at baking pizza this way that he opened his own pizza restaurant! He also wrote a book on speedcubing. Interesting guy!
I would be rather surprised to find an oven going to 400*C though, thats quite hot lol
I’d say ovens here in EU usually go to 200-250 degrees.

use a heatgun on it.

A self-cleaning can go as high as 500°C during pyrolysis.
Yea, but they usually lock the hatch during the cycle and I don’t think any pizza needs 500’C for a couple of hours 😅

I like my pizza extra well done
Instructions unclear, cooked pizza in clay kiln.
