When you unbox the oven for the first time, due to shipping, you may notice the presence of red refractory powder on the cooking floor. If this is the case, you should brush the powder off. We also recommend to cook and discard 2 or 3 pizza dough balls to ensure you remove the refractory powder before cooking and eating your first pizza. If your are using the oven for the first time or after a prolonged period of inactivity we recommend to extend your pre-heating of the oven by an extra 30 minutes to allow the dispersion of any humidity possibly collected by the refractory bricks during shipping or after prolonged inactivity.
