How do I regulate the deck and top correctly?

The balance between the top and deck set point temperature and power varies according to the type of product and dough to be baked.
Starting from the settings suggested below and by modifying the temperature set point, it is possible to customise the baking time and desired texture (e.g., increasing the temperature will shorten the baking time and the product will be softer, brown more quickly and have a finer crust, vice versa by lowering the temperature).

The adjustment of the top and deck power acts on the heating elements at the top and bottom of the oven. In this way it is possible to personalise the desired balance between the surface and the bottom of the product.
For example by increasing the power of the top the product will brown faster, vice versa increasing the power of the deck, the oven will get more thrust and more browning of the bottom.

When setting the temperature and percentage of the heating elements, it is important not to go below certain values. As a general guideline, it must be taken into account that below 200°C (390°F) the sum of the percentages of ceiling and deck must be greater than 5; below 250°C (480°F) the sum must be over 7, below 300°C (570°F) 8, above 300°C (570°F) 9.

How to ensure the correct pizza rotation when baking?

Start baking from the bottom of the oven on the right, moving then to the left and passing to the row at the front.

During the shift “rotate” the deck of the oven occupying all the areas available. After work breaks start baking from the bottom right area.

Do I need to turn my pizza while baking?

During baking it is not necessary to continuously turn the pizza.

In case of partial loads or when baking at high temperatures, you can half-turn the pizza right after mid-cooking to obtain a perfect result.

How do I use Eco-Standby™ function?

It is the smart function that makes you save energy setting the oven in standby during work breaks.
The oven will be ready immediately with a click.

How do I set the parameters with highly hydrated doughs?

If the dough you are baking is more hydrated than standard, we suggest to lower the temperature by 10/20°C (50/70°F), rising the deck power by 1 point and extend baking till desired, vice versa with low hydration dough.

NB the following settings are referred to P series Amalfi P80-P60*
*For gas models it is only possible to regulate the temperature, Dual-Power function is not available.

Pizza settings

Gourmet pizza with high crust (California Style)

Dough ball size from 270 to 300g / Baking time 3’-4’
Normal workload:
Preheat P series adjusting the set point at 330 °C (625 °F), 7 top and 1 deck, press start and wait for the oven to reach temperature.
When the set temperature is reached, before putting the products in the oven, set the top at 8 and the deck at 2, then start baking from the right area, remembering to alternate baking position and ensure the correct pizza “rotation”.
During work breaks we suggest to use Eco-Standby function to save energy while leaving the oven balanced.

Oven constantly at full load:
Program P series as stated above.
When the set point is reached modify the top and deck power respectively at 8 and 4, then start baking. At the first hints of a lighter browning increase the deck power.

Bread Settings

Buns

Weight 80-120g / Baking on a tray
205-215 °C / 400 – 420 °F / 4 top, 2 deck

Baking time: 11-16 minutes, according to weight.

Bakery Settings

Genoese focaccia

Weight from 900 to 1100g / Baking time 13’ – 16’
Preheat P series setting the set point at 235 °C (455 °F), 4 top and 6 deck. Press start and wait for the oven to reach temperature. Then you can start baking from the right side.

If necessary, for continuous baking, further increase the both top and deck power by 1 point.
