I used something JHP sent ... I guess it could be considered a sauce ... but it's more like pourable pepper jelly (which I do like) ... no vinegar note on top, like most bottled hot sauce ...
 
It was like a gritty (Asian) sweet n' sour sauce ...
 
Actually, I can't wait to have the rest in a little while ...
 
Nice rusticity here!

An experiment and i hope this is my last pizza on normal oven...
I used emmer wheat, 500g, (italian type of hulled wheat that was the base of roman legions food) mixed with whole wheat, 200g, just because i needed to reach 700g flour. With 600g water (85% hydro), a bit of evo, salt and yeast as needed, 21hours of frigde + 3 outside.
I saw that flour used by some really highly skilled guys, at least spelt. Bonci too uses it, maybe someone of you has heard of him. It should be more digestible, have less fat and satiate more.
 
Margherita, half with anchovies:

The day i'll have cavities like that in all pizza i'll be happy.
 
That one with tomato, garlic, scallots, oregano, douglah flakes. Evo after cooking:

That is better cold and seems that douglah aroma is quite perceivable (i think it had a peak just before cooling down, really nice).
 
I really liked that dough and was faily executed. It's different than normal wheat but not worse.
Also i've found on my nearest market some farro (hulled wheat) quite inexpensive (still it costs twice than regular flour) so i must try again.

Tomorrow i see if i am able to use well that beast (not that i have much time...).
And that just to get depressed since sunday i'm going to Saporè wich i considered maybe the top "Pizza Gourmet" artisan (wich is not classic pizza, a different thing much more expensive though i'm not gonna pay crazy prices that time).

I like this oven, it seems strong construction. Is better than the Ferrari?
Thanks! It's really strong, it's 22kg. Ferrari was 5,4, absolutely not comparable to Ferrari. Also it's suitable for pan of 40*30cm, it barely fits but still fits. Someone is able to do that and without mods if i remember well:
http://laconfraternitadellapizza.forumfree.it/?t=65993065
I admit that those pizzas aren't average by any means and absolutely astonishing.
 
Seems that times have some issues (probably i'm not going to use it but i must investigate).
Btw pyrometer measured with some consistency temps aroung 930F with a spike over 950! With Ferrari i got over 720 but not much more.
But the nice thing are independent resistance and higher mass so when i put a pizza in i don't cut temps of 100°C.
 
The only issue that i know is refractory stone that isn't much thick so lower resistance is difficult to use at max, many people say to buy one thicker (it's not expensive, just maybe not the easiest thing to get).
 
A thicker stone not think necessary. Just take longer to heat Heat delivers the heater when turned on. Then the stone does not need to retain the heat for a long time

I not understanding this... You say that decomposes over ttime?

I writed wrong, i meant timer.
Users found that with a thicker stone they were able to cook with max lower resistance. With deafult using max it's easy to burn bottom and requires more turning (and it's bad since you need to open the oven for that). Tomorrow probably i'll use max on top and 300°C out of 450 on bottom for the first.
