Re: Tom Lehmann/Yuval cold fermented pizza dough

as far as the bases go, i know the question youll ask is…… “had the steel got back up to temperature?” and the answer is…… “i cant be 100% sure”

thats because whilst the IR thermometer told me that the steel was around 280 degrees after an hour, i tried to check between each pizza and kept getting a ‘LO’ reading on the display.  it wasnt low battery, it wasnt a low temperature, so im baffled why this should be.  i kept flicking between different surfaces, back of the oven, the oven door, the worktop, even the inside of the fridge freezer, all read correct temperatures.  even the corner of the steel where the pizzas hadnt touched gave a reading.  but when i put the red dot on the middle of the steel, i got ‘LO’.

all ok here…..

and in the middle of the steel…..

any idea why this could be?  ive googled it and all suggest what i mentioned above, low battery or too low a temperature, but it definite…
