I use the Pizzazz for so many things, I barely use the actual oven, and it took over the spot I had the toaster in. There's 0 pre-heating, and 2 smallish elements. It has a little residual heat, which is why the pan keeps moving while the elements cool, and that little heat after it kicks off is perfect for warming if you can't grab your food right away.

I use the same pizza stone. I do a few things differently pizza aficionados (and America's Test Kitchen) should try. 1. If possible put the pizza stone on the grill and turn the grill all the way up. Mine reaches 750 degrees. 2. Put the dough on baking parchment instead of using flour (or corn meal) on the preparation surface. The baking parchment allows you to take your time adding ingredients by preventing the dough from sticking to the preparation surface. You can even prepare multiple pizzas at once. It makes sliding the pizza dough on/off the peel effortless. It also adds a bit of crispiness to the crust. And finally, it is infinitely cleaner than spreading flour or corn meal over the preparation surface. Try it and you will never go back. :)

My understanding is the pizzaola can recover very fast. Was the ability to make one pizza after the other tested? If it recovers very fast, it would make a lot more sense than a pizza stone in the oven. The other question - Did the pizzaola oven give off a ton of heat? Less than the kitchen oven does?

@Chris S Yes, it certainly has been tested for its very fast recovery time. Master pizza chef Lee Hunzinger ( @pizzalee33 on Instagram) , normally uses a wood fired oven, but used four Breville Pizzaiolos to make 300 pizzas in five hours. That comes out to 60 pies per hour , divided by four, equals 15 pies an hour per oven, at four minutes a pie, which includes bake time, ( probably around 3mins. or 3mins 20 secs, ) plus recovery time !!! He's baking at around 650 degrees, ( shown in one video at Zoli's) and is making his own variations of New York style, which gives you some idea of just how fast they recycle. Scott Wiener, of Scott's Pizza Tours, also tested them and said they recover fast. He says his usual pies in his home oven ( a professional oven, like Wolf) , "...come out real good, but these have been coming out better and faster". Baking Neapolitan pies at 700 - 750 degrees only takes two minutes per pie. La Morra Pizzeria guys also say they recover very fast with their Neapolitans , baked at under 3 mins, including "doming" the pie, just like their wood fired oven . The heat that's emitted is much less, compared to a home oven. It's very well insulated and cool to the touch. And because it preheats so fast, ( 15-20 minutes, depending on what temp you're baking at), compared to an hour preheat of a cordierite stone in a home oven , and bakes and because it recovers so fast between pies, there's much less time to emit a lot of heat, compared to a home oven. Also, the heat is concentrated in a very small space, whereas a home oven is much less efficient , given its much larger size. That's why the Breville engineers intentionally kept the size down to a 12 inch pizza, so they could do it all at only 1800 Watts at 120 Volts. So making several pies fast is a snap with this oven.

I've got a very similar one to the Forno. The trick is to heat it up to 2 1/2 and then put the pizza in, because you can then turn it up to 3 and it will give the pizza more heat form the top. Personally i think the outcome is far superior to my pizzastone.

Regarding the Presto Pizzazz, it looks like they were using it incorrectly. The switch looks like it's set for the lower heating element only. That means the top element wasn't on so of course it didn't brown on top. The instruction book says to set the switch for Dual heating, 11 - 13 minutes, when baking a fresh, unfrozen pizza. I've never eaten a hot dog from a gas station, but it works very well when I heat them at home.

When baking a fresh dough pizza on the Presto Pizzazz, bakers have to set it to 20 minutes on the bottom setting and then set it to both for the last ten minutes. It takes a few minutes to preheat since it is electric. I get a perfect fresh pizza every time, so don’t judge the gizmo harshly because if the directions are not followed properly. Not only can you make fresh pizza (even though it was designed specifically for frozen) but anything that you can bake that comes in a can (biscuits, cinnamon rolls) also bakes well on the Pizzazz which makes it a non-mono-tasker! That being stated, there are issues with the design of the Pizzazz: there’s no temperature control (no hi/med/low) to the heating elements, it’s either on or off; there’s no height adjustment on it so it can singe the toppings on a thick crust pizza. With a silicon baking mat or parchment paper lining, the metal turn table will be cleaner longer (hot tip!) Pizza lovers really need to be diligent with the Pizzazz, but I love mine and it will create better results than what was provided for in this video, as others with my experience have stated already.

It does take up some storage space, but I personally think it's worth it. After fine-tuning the pizza dough and sauce recipe we rarely eat pizza out anymore.

I make my Pizza in MY oven without a Stone or Metal. First I assemble MY pizza on a 15" aluminum Pizza pan.(Largest that will fit into my oven and close the door fully) I use the hottest setting of my oven and I have two racks in the oven - one at the LOWEST possible position and One just above that. Put the Pizza and pan in the oven on the Lowest rack and let it set up - about 3-4 minutes = I generally turn(Spin) the Pizza pan once during that time. THEN use a big spatula or peel and Take the pizza off the pan and directly onto the Higher rack. (It is actually quite easy to do) The crust comes out crispy and browns nicely. One thing YOU DO have to do is leave enough margin around the Pizza crust so that the toppings do not fall off the pizza onto the oven floor - which WILL cause major smoke. But I save in not heating my oven for a full hour. I pull the pizza out of the oven right onto a large cutting board and let is rest for at least 5 minutes before cutting it.

I did buy the Breville winter 2020 for $800. I also own a pizza stone and pizza steel. I feel I can get a quality pizza from my oven on pizza steel and from my Breville. Each has a downside. The pizza steel pros: 1. It was $75 and if you use a stone instead it can be as low $25-$30. It will produce a great pizza with the right technique The Pizza steel cons: 1. needs a full hour in a 550-degree oven to preheat. This amount of time uses a lot of energy (gas in my case) 2. It really throws a ton of heat into the house. This is ok in the winter but really bad in the summer when you are already paying to cool the house. Breville Pros: 1. The Breville preheats in 20 minutes and uses much less energy as you are heating a much smaller oven. 2. It can easily be moved outside in the summer to keep even less heat from fighting your home's cooling system. 3. IMO the higher temps you can reach in the Breville do offer a better option for Neapolitan style Pizza that a standard home oven just can't quite replicate. Breville cons: 1. The downside is it's at least an $800 upfront cost. In conclusion, I think the Breville is worthwhile if you plan to use it quite often or if you want a more authentic Neapolitan style Pizza. You will pay a lot up front but you can recoup some money through energy savings.

I cook pizza in my regular oven using a preheated baking steel and I use the thermostat calibration feature to increase the maximum temperature of the oven to 580 degrees. It allows for pizzas up to 15" and has plenty of space to work in. I use All Trumps flour because it's designed to work in that temperature range and browns up very easily. If I wanted to improve on that I would consider one of the outdoor ovens by Ooni or Bertello. They cost about $300 and can cook with gas or wood to create temperatures up to 950 degrees, but only have room for 12" pizzas and require a different dough formulation and cooking technique.

This seems to be a common theme on this channel, cheaper kitchen appliances getting a bad rating due to not reading the instructions. I've been using a Pizzazz for almost a decade, and recently just didn't bother buying a new toaster when my toaster finally died. I got the previous Pizzazz from a work safety award catalog, and it lasted 7 years until it blew an internal fuse or something. Not bad for free, paid $49 for my current one, on sale for $54 now. I've never owned a toaster oven, so pre-buttering toast, and having it done perfectly, and shutting off on it's own, and residually warmed after, is a nice new thing since I've owned this.

For our cigar lounge, I bought a Wisco pizza oven the kind they have behind the bar for frozen pizzas (new $100+, used $50). WOW, what a great machine, first pizza perfection (slightly brown on top) in 20 mins then every 10-15 mins. Unfortunately limited to just standard 13" pizzas (no rising crust, deep dish), Breville smart oven nice, not as good as for pizza but can make frozen bread and cookies.
@robertfrapples24724 жыл бұрын
If you're going to make pizza indoors, either go for a pizza steel (better than a stone for low heat ovens) or spring for the Breville. Those other contraptions are absolute junk. I make scratch pizza nearly every day in my Monogram Pizza Oven, so I'm a bit spoiled, but the Breville is a nice alternative. If you can afford one, the Monogram will change your life. My mancave now turns out the quality of pizzas you would at least have to travel to NYC for, maybe Naples! HEAT MATTERS!

I usually use the volcanic rock Granite(surface) or Basalt(undersea) floor tiles. It's smooth so pizza doesn't stick&does the exact same thing as the baking stone. Just make sure the tile is large enough (16"x16") for the 14" pizza and the thickness is over an inch so that it doesn't crack too easily. It should be thick enough to retain the heat for cooking pizza or sear steak at temp higher than 500 deegrees.

I've not tried this yet, but getting two pizza stones in a single home oven seems promising. One stone on a middle rack, the second on a rack immediately above that. Crank the heat, let the stones come to temp, cook the pizza on the bottom stone with the heat from the upper stone radiating the top of the pie. Need to get a second stone and try it.

I saw the winner was used in Bon Appetit's test kitchen. I was seriously considering it. I went to Williams-Sonoma to check pricing and reviews. 4 of the 8 reviews said that the stones broke and Breville would not replace them for free. 2 of those 4 reviews were posted 7 days prior and 24 hours prior to my search. For $1000 I would think the stones would hold up better than that and if they did break I would hope Breville would be sending a free replacement overnight.

In a test published in September of 2018 they gave the Betty Crocker a "Not Recommended" rating. They gave it two out of three stars for ease of use, two-and-a-half stars for maneuverability, but only one star for pizza quality. Here's what they wrote: "This simple model, about the size of a fat frisbee, is like a waffle iron with flat nonstick plates. It doesn't include any controls for time or temperature, so you just plug it in to begin preheating. We liked frozen pizza made in this machine, but homemade doughs never became crisp enough. Even when the cheese was melted and the toppings were crisp, the crust remained “quite pale” and “doughy.” The cooking surface has a ¾-inch lip, so we couldn't easily slide pizzas in and out; instead, we had to drag them up and over that edge."

I've worked in a lot of pizza parlors, and made a lot of pizza at home, so a little advice... Use pizza screens! Forget cornmeal and flour (under your pizzas). If you don't use enough it's a disaster, and when you do use enough, you gotta pull it just right, and it's a lot of cleanup. Also, the last thing you want to do is build a pizza, THEN move it onto a peel. It gets all screwed up. Instead, put a thrown or rolled out crust on a screen, and then add your sauce, cheese and toppings. Once the crust is on the screen it never leaves the screen till the pizza is cooked (so it keeps it's shape, and you don't pull dough too thin, which tears and makes a mess in the oven). Also, the screen can be your guide to get the perfect size every time. Another good thing about screens is you can have several pizzas built and ready to go in the oven. SO much easier and cleaner, and you still get a perfectly cooked bottom. Pro tip: If you like a well done or extra crispy bottom (like I do), you can pull the screen out from under it (with some tongs), halfway or two thirds through the cooking (once the crust isn't soft and doughy anymore), and put the pizza directly on the stone (no flour or cornmeal needed at this point). Once you try a screen you will never go back.
