The Breville Pizzaiolo oven features
Element iQ® , a cooking technology that adjusts what heating elements are on, and the power of each of the heating elements to achieve the optimum cooking performance.
Each of the oven’s functions is preset with our recommended deck and top temperatures, that are based on recipes and testing.
Depending on the recipe, amount of food and your personal taste, these can b e adjusted with the use of the DARKNESS dial

MANUAL MODE FUNCTION

Manual Mode is an alternative mode of operation that allows you to individually control deck and top temperatures, and to select which heaters are in operation. This enables you to fully customize how the oven functions.
For better use of the Manual Mode, the alternate interface magnet provided with the pizza oven should b e placed on the front of the interface to indicate what temperatures you have set and what heaters you are using.

To set the oven to “Manual Mode”

1. Press and hold the TIME/DECK TEMP dial
2. Turn the STYLE/TOP TEMP dial from OFF to 350° F.
3. Release the TIME/DECK TEMP dial.
4. The Manual Mode light will fl.ash three times and then stay on.

When the Manual Mode is selected, the control dial situated on the far right will allow you to choose the heat distribution in each top element, in order to achieve different food results.

If selecting the setting on the far left , the inner & outer top elements will have a similar heat distribution to allow an even cooking result.
This setting is ideal if cooking a style of pizza that requires that both the toppings and the crust to b e cooked evenly.
By turning the dial from left to right, you will allow the heat to b e more and more directed toward the outer element and away from the inner top element.

If selecting the setting on the far rig ht, the outside top element will have a much higher heat distribution than the inside top element.
This setting is ideal if cooking a Neapolitanstyle pizza which requires higher heat in the crust, to achieve leopard-spotting, or if cooking with delicate ingredients.

When using Manual Mode, refer to the table below for suggested times and temperature ranges depending on the style of pizza being cooked:

NOTE
The deck and top temperatures affect each other, so there are limitations on the possible combinations.
To return to pre-set mode, simply turn the STYLE dial to OFF and then turn back on to select desired function

HOW TO SHAPE THE
NEAPOLITAN PIZZA DOUGH
For the Neapolitan dough recipe, refer to the recipe card provided with the pizza oven

• Add flour, yeast and salt to the bowl of a bench mixer. Stir to combine. Add the water and knead on low speed until the dough is smooth and elastic, 5-6 minutes.

• Cover with plastic wrap and proof until doubled in size 4 5 – 6 0 minutes.

• Divide dough into 4 x 8-ounce (240g) pieces.
  Using lightly floured hands, shape each piece into a smooth ball.

• Lightly dust two baking trays with semolina mix and place the dough balls on the trays,leaving 4 inches (10cm) between the balls.
  Lightly oil the top of each ball then thoroughly wrap each tray with plastic wrap.
  Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or up to 4 days.

• Let dough stand, still wrapped, at room temperature for 1 hour before use. Sprinkle a generous amount of semolinamix on a clean work surface. Use a bench scraper (or a spatula) to lift out one dough ball Keep the remaining dough covered until ready to use.

• Working with one dough disc at a time, coat dough in the semolina mix.

• On a lightly floured work surface, gently press out dough from the center into a 6-inch (15cm) circle, leaving a 1-inch (2cm) border around the edge. Gently stretch dough into a 10 to 12-inch (25-30cm) circle.

NOTE
The dough can be hard to shape if it has not rested long enough or is still too cold.
If the dough snaps back when shaping, let it rest for a further 15-30 minutes under a damp cloth.
It will make the dough easier to manage.

TIPS
If having difficulty stretching the dough, place the floured dough on the top of an upside-down bowl, then gently stretch the dough down the sides.
The dough can also be kneaded by hand or by using a food processor. Dough is ready when it is possible to stretch a very thin ( almost transparent) piece without tearing.

HOW TO USE THE PEEL

When cooking pizzas that do not require the use of the pan, it is essential to cook your pizza directly on the deck. This requires the use of the pizza peel to transfer your pizza into the oven Ensure that the oven is already preheated before placing the dough on the pizza peel.

• Sprinkle a small amount (approximately ½ tsp) of flour and semolina mix (half and half) over the surface of the peel before placing the dough on it.
• Place your stretched dough onto your peel and begin saucing/topping your pizza.
• WORK FAST! Add your sauce and toppings quickly. If not, the moisture in your dough will cause it to stick to the peel and make it difficult to slide your pizza onto the stone.
• Do not let the dough sit on the peel for more than about 2 minutes to prevent it from sticking.
•  Once the pizza is topped and ready to cook, position the peel to the back of the oven Let the tip of the peel rest on the deck and raise the handle so that the whole peel is tilting forward. Jiggle the peel back and forth gently to allow the tip of the pizza to touch the deck.
• Gradually jiggle the peel out of the oven stretching the pizza out on the deck as you go.
• Once cooked, slide the peel under the pizza to remove from the oven

TIPS
The aim is to use just enough flour/semolina to ensure the pizza doesn’t stick on the peel If you use too much, the excess flour will burn on the stone, causing a bitter taste and a yellow color on the base of the pizza This excess flour will also increase the amount of smoke and chance of a fi.re occurring in the oven after you have removed your pizza.

NOTE
The peel needs to remain cold and clean to prevent the dough from sticking.
Do not sit the peel under the pizza oven, while waiting to load the pizza onto its surface.

HOW TO USE THE PAN
For pan-style pizza, the pizza should b e prepared in the unheated pizza pan and then placed in a preheated oven. Always ensure to have deck in place when using the pizza pan.
Alternatively, the pan can b e preheated before adding food, e.g. vegetables, to achieve better charring results.

Tips for perfect topping s

• Remove buffalo mozzarella from brine and press gently on paper towel to drain.
• Non-cured meats and thicker vegetables should b e pre-cooked before using as pizza topping.
• Excessive amounts of sauce or toppings can make the crust soggy.
• Increasing salt content in your dough can help with achieving leopard spotting.
• Extra sauce for Neapolitan and Pizza sauce can b e frozen in smaller portions until required

Care & Cleaning

Before cleaning, ensure the oven and all accessories are cool, and remove the power plug from the power outlet.

Cleaning the outer body and door
