Gozney Roccbox

A compact, well-insulated gas oven that reaches 500°C in roughly 25-30 minutes and holds temperature reliably. The silicone jacket keeps the exterior genuinely cool to the touch, making it safer around kids and tighter spaces. Optional wood burner swaps in easily if you want smoke flavor.

How this oven bakes

The shell holds heat. You still have to turn. The flame sits to one side, not over the pie.
The chamber is tight. Learn a clean launch and a quick turn before you chase 90-second bakes.
Give the deck the full 20 min. Air temperature lies. The stone is slower.

How the calculator uses this oven

Temperature and bake time. It reaches 500°C. At the default hydration, the calculator bakes Traditional Napoletana (60%) at 455°C on the deck for about 85 seconds, and Pizza Classica (65%) at 278°C on the deck for about 6 minutes.
Baking surface. The calculator assumes the stock cordierite stone. Swap in a biscotto and Traditional Napoletana takes about 90 seconds instead of 85 seconds.
Hydration for this oven. It reaches the heat Traditional Napoletana wants, so the calculator keeps the style's 58–65% hydration.
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.
