Terracotta stone for pizza oven

[murni]

Our neighbour has just bought the oven and does not know where to buy the stone. I know some of you have the oven so can you point him in the right direction to buy the stone?

Thanks in advance.

Robert of Sausage king Garden restaurant Sansai has one .Maybe ask him .

I use a small granite slab that fit the oven instead of pizza stone as it easily available and cheap.

I saw stones for pizza ovens at Yok's. Not terracotta but a white "stone". Granite is a crap shoot. Sometimes they hold up fine and sometimes they crack under the heat.

I use a floor tile. Yes, sometimes it cracks, but no bad effect to the pizza. then I just replace it. I have some leftover floor tiles, so not cost.

I looked into this and apparently using the wrong tile can be dangerous. Can explode. What have people had success with?

[butterisbetter]

Just use thick unglazed terracotta floor tile. The largest size you can find. Apparently, that's what Peter Reinhart, a major bread guru, uses.

I find they are not necessary. Using the metal tray that came with the oven a sheet of aluminum foil on top. I can get my crust as crunchy as I want.

That would make a very thick pizza stone. The thinnest brick I saw listed was 5 centimeters. It would take a long time to get it hot.

I am considering using a 600X600 mm flooring tile and cutting it down to size to fit. I use silicone coated paper for the bread to rest on so no contact will be made. My thought was to use 3 pieces, one above, one below and one for the bread to rest on. Maybe that will take out some of the fluctuating temp. Just have to preheat longer.

Any thoughts??
