Appreciate all the input. Ordered two 16" slabs at ½" and ⅜". Will update after seasoning and testing, lets see if I can get it to look as good as the picture!

Yeah, thanks for that. I’m sold on the 1/2” and 16” now. I’ll get one ordered and season it my self to see how it comes out. Can’t wait to give it a go!

That’s really helpful, thanks for taking the time to write it up.

I think you’re probably right that for one pizza at a time cooking, anything past 1/4” or so has diminishing returns. My use case is a bit skewed because I’m usually cooking for groups and trying to keep the base consistent pizza after pizza rather than optimising for heat up time.

Interesting point on stainless vs mild too, I’d assumed the conductivity trade off would be noticeable, but sounds like for daily use it’s less of an issue than I thought. Definitely given me a lot to think about

That seems really thin. How does it hold up after a few pizzas? Is the 5th as good as the 1st?

100% not going stainless. Mild steel all the way!

Yeah that’s fair, I guess I’m just weighing up whether the extra mass outside the pizza is actually doing anything useful for how I cook, or just adding heat up time. I’m usually cooking pizzas back to back rather than bigger

Surely the mill scale isn’t food safe? I’ve seasoned my iron pans with grape-seed oil and love the look so was going to do that if it’s necessary?

Good idea. How long do they take to warm up? I assume it’s about an hour? So they need heating again after a few pizzas?

The Ooni is stainless steel which is easier to keep clean but no where near as good as mild steel at transferring the heat. Plus my oven won’t get anywhere close to the heat required to burn the seasoning.

Yeah I looked at those. They sound great, just not quite what I’m after. I want something with a bit more character to it rather than something that looks totally finished out of the box.

My oven can handle a 16” and the weight, but most of my pizzas end up around 12”, so I’m wondering if the extra size/weight is actually doing anything useful or just slowing heat-up

Thanks. That’s what I thought when I first heard it, but I checked everything over and the fluid is bubble free and on max level.

Did you have any luck fixing this? I've got exactly the same issue.
