How the calculator uses this oven

Temperature and bake time. It reaches 350°C. At the default hydration, the calculator bakes Traditional Napoletana (60%) at 350°C on the deck for about 2.5 minutes, and Pizza Classica (65%) at 278°C on the deck for about 6 minutes.
Baking surface. The calculator treats its built-in deck as a cordierite stone.
Hydration for this oven. The bake runs longer than Traditional Napoletana wants, so the calculator recommends 61–65% hydration here, against the style's usual 58–65%.
Baker corrections. Bake times learn from bakers' reports on this oven. A correction starts once at least 5 successful bakes from 3 different bakers share the same style and surface.
