Witt Etna Rotante Control 13 Biscotto di Sorrento for Perfect Neapolitan Pizza Saputo Stone

Biscotto di Sorrento Ø 33 × 2 cm for Witt Etna Rotante Controll 13 The biscotto di sorrento pizza stone is designed specifically for pizza ovens like the Witt Etna Rotante Controll 13, measuring approximately Ø 33 × 2 cm. It's the ideal choice for anyone looking to create authentic Neapolitan pizza with a perfectly baked crust and airy edge at high temperatures. Handcrafted in Sant’Agnello on the Sorrento Peninsula in Italy by Fornace Aversa, each stone is made from natural materials, shaped by hand, and then fired. This craftsmanship ensures that every biscotto is a unique piece, distinguishing it from regular mass-produced options. Original Italian Craftsmanship from Sorrento The unique clay blend used comes from the Sorrento area, characterized by natural mineral and volcanic components, including clay, silicon, and pumice stone. This natural composition gives the biscotto its porous structure and exceptional thermal properties. It effectively retains heat but releases it more evenly and gently to the pizza dough than conventional pizza stones. Conventional chamotte or cordierite stones can transfer heat too aggressively at high temperatures, causing the pizza's bottom to darken or burn before the crust and toppings are fully cooked. In contrast, the biscotto di sorrento pizza stone features relatively low thermal conductivity, ensuring that heat is distributed carefully and evenly, minimizing the risk of burning. Gentle Heat Transfer for Perfect Pizza The natural porosity of the biscotto di sorrento stone is one of its key features. Its open-pore structure absorbs excess moisture from the dough while promoting even heat distribution. The biscotto is handmade by Fornace Aversa, which upholds a long-standing Italian tradition of working with clay and refractory materials. Each stone may slightly vary in appearance and dimensions due to the handcrafting process, which is typical of genuine handcrafted natural products. With the round biscotto di sorrento pizza stone designed for the Witt Etna Rotante Controll 13, you receive an authentic, handcrafted Italian baking stone for high temperatures. Its natural porosity, controlled heat transfer, and high moisture absorption create the perfect environment for pizza with an evenly baked base, airy crust, and succulent toppings.
