Indeed.
> sure you mean
Yes I mean it. For a good Neapolitan pizza, yes you want 450C, C for degrees Celsius. Or around 850F
Or even a bit higher: "Ultra-High Heat 500˚C (900F) - the temperature you need for crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside perfect crusts." https://uk.ooni.com/ https://uk.ooni.com/
FYI, it only really reaches 500C at the back corner, the stone is closer to 450C at the centre.
Yes, a regular home kitchen oven can't reach that: mine tops our at 300C, as long as you don't open the door and put something in. Then it's more like 250C
That's why it's good to have a specialised oven, either a brick and cement dome, or a "portable" Rocbox or Ooni.
A home oven just can't make a good Neapolitan pizza because it doesn't go hot enough.

- SideburnsOfDoom 6y agoIt's "portable" like an Osborne 1 - i.e Ooni Koda 16 weights 20Kg, without the gas cylinder. You're not going to walk around with oven and gas like it's a briefcase. But the legs fold up. A strong adult could put it (and the gas) in the boot of a car and drive over to a friends' house and set it up there. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osborne_1 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osborne_1
