FAQ – PRACTICAL TIPS

Stainless steel is a material that, by its very nature, may show micro-scratches from the very first uses. This is a typical feature and not a defect. These light surface abrasions do not affect the quality, durability, or hygiene of the product in any way. Over time and with use, the surface tends to develop a uniform, lived-in finish that many appreciate for its authentic look.

Yes. Stainless steel may undergo aesthetic changes over time due to usage, cleaning products, or mineral residues in water. These changes are purely cosmetic and do not affect the structural quality, hygiene, or safety of the material, which remains highly resistant and durable.

• After use, rinse well with water and dry with a clean cloth or chamois leather; this operation allows to renew the natural protection of the steel.
• Use any normal detergent as long as it does not contain chlorine or its compounds, such as bleach and muriatic acid, or the Barazza Multi Clean detergent and the Easy Clean antibacterial microfibre cloth with degreasing and absorbent action. In case of persistent stains, use a little warm white vinegar..
• We recommend using Easy Clean by Barazza, the professional cream that cleans, polishes and protects stainless steel; pour a small amount of product onto a very damp microfibre cloth, rub (for stainless steel with satin finish, follow the direction of the satin finish), rinse thoroughly and dry. Be careful not to drag on cooking residues in order to avoid the formation of micro-scratches on the surface..
• Do not use steel wool or other abrasive materials which will inevitably scratch the steel surface..
• Do not drag objects across the hob but use chopping boards and trivets during normal kitchen operations..
• Avoid placing hot pans, ovens and small ovens on top as they can cause deformation and yellowing.
• Do not leave rusty iron objects on the surface for a long time.
• Do not leave open packages and bottles of detergents or other chemical substances near the product.

• When cleaning the teppanyaki griddle, it is advisable to clean it while it is still at a temperature of around 50-60 °C, so that food residues can be easily removed.
• If the hotplate is cold, turn the thermostat knob to 50-60°C. If it’s still too hot, wait for it to cool down. In the latter case, in order to find out what temperature the hotplate is actually at, you’ll have to turn the thermostat knob until the pilot light comes on and read the temperature shown on the screen, then turn the knob back to the “0 – Off” position.
• We recommend removing the larger residues from the hotplate using a spatula (and choosing utensils with rounded edges so as to not scratch the plate), wetting the hotplate with a little water and dishwashing detergent or vinegar and leaving them to act for a few minutes to allow the crust to dissolve; in terms of detergents, it’s essential to only use them if they are free of abrasive components and avoid products which are too acidic.
• Then wipe off any residue from the hotplate with a kitchen cloth and water with detergent or vinegar. Rinse the hotplate several times with a cloth moistened with water and dry it carefully.
• Remember that some proteins and acids can stain the hotplate: our advice is to avoid prolonged contact of the hotplate with these substances.
• If the plate is slightly stained, treat the stains with commercial citric acid.
• To clean the hotplate between cooking sessions, simply use a spatula to remove the larger residues and put ice cubes and lemon juice on the hotplate. The ice cubes will melt and soften the deposits, while the lemon will remove the smells of previously cooked food. Once this has been done, remove everything with the spatula.
• The knobs must not be removed from the pin on which they are mounted: to clean them, we recommend using a soft cloth soaked in a light dose of Barazza Multi Clean detergent or a neutral detergent, making sure there are no infiltrations.

We recommend the use of glass, plastic or cling film lids, because this way

1. excessive release of steam is avoided (especially with very long cooking times);
2. the cooking process is accelerated;
3. foods are prevented from drying out;
4. the aroma of the dishes is preserved.

The lids must not be airtight, to prevent any type of pressure from building up. Plastic bags must have uniform openings. Baby bottles, baby food jars and similar containers must not be heated with the lid on, otherwise there is a risk of them bursting.

Clean the oven regularly to remove fat or food residues, which can cause stains to appear and cause fumes and odors during subsequent cooking.

It is possible to use the Multi Clean detergent by Barazza or a neutral detergent or vinegar and bicarbonate and the Easy Clean antibacterial microfibre cloth with degreasing and absorbent action; pour a small amount of product onto a very damp microfiber cloth, rinse thoroughly and dry.

Do not use sponges or wire brushes, or tools that could damage the enamel.

Over time, some foods such as tomatoes, vinegar, dishes cooked in salt, etc. can cause alterations in the color of the enamel. These variations do not affect its functionality and are to be considered normal. Do not try to remove these stains with detergents or abrasive tools such as those already described, as the surface could be irreversibly damaged. Regularly clean the oven seal to remove grease or food residues. This will prevent the gasket from deteriorating and breaking during subsequent firings. It is recommended to clean the gasket without removing it.

The material is non-porous: dirt and bacteria remain on the surface and are easy to remove.

It can be sanitised with:

• hot water

• steam

• all common disinfectants used in domestic/professional settings (if used according to the label).

Precautions:

Avoid very strong acidic or alkaline solutions (e.g. drain openers, hydrochloric acid, caustic soda, etc.), as they may stain the surface.
In case of accidental contact with very aggressive products, rinse immediately with plenty of water.

Instructions for use:

Place the pizza stone on the rack, halfway up the oven, with the oven switched off.
Start the oven using the rapid preheating mode for 20 minutes, setting the temperature required for baking the pizza (between 220°C and 270°C). After 20 minutes, the stone will be sufficiently hot. It is recommended to place and remove the pizza quickly to keep the temperature stable.
Thanks to its ability to absorb and distribute heat evenly, the stone ensures optimal baking, giving the pizza a crispy crust.

After use:

Leave the stone inside the oven until it has completely cooled down. If it is necessary to remove it while still hot, use oven gloves to avoid burns.

Clean the surface by removing any food residues with a damp cloth soaked in water and vinegar or dishwashing detergent. The stone is dishwasher-safe. For stubborn stains, Easy Clean can be used, taking care to rinse thoroughly.

Tips for use:

In addition to pizza, the stone is ideal for preparing bread, focaccia, meat, fish, vegetables and other dishes.
The stone can be used as a serving base at the table, keeping food warm. The use of heat-resistant gloves and a support such as the oven rack or a trivet is recommended to protect surfaces.
Avoid placing the stone on sensitive materials, such as stainless steel, to prevent scratches or deformation caused by heat.

• It is a compact, non-porous and chemically stable high-pressure laminate (HPL).

• Suitable for food contact: it does not release substances onto food.

• The surface is easy to sanitise with hot water, steam and common disinfectants used in domestic and professional settings.

Therefore, it is suitable as: a work surface for cold foods, foods at room temperature or lukewarm foods.

Hot / cold use

The material does not melt, but it can begin to thermally degrade above 250°C and only burns in the event of a fire at around 400°C; this means it withstands moderate heat well, but it is not intended as a direct support for very hot items.

Do not place directly:

• pots just removed from the flame or the induction hob

• baking trays just taken out of the oven

• always use a trivet, pot holder or an intermediate base to avoid marks, swelling or permanent damage.

Cold foods and room temperature

No issues for cold or frozen foods, doughs, pastry preparations.
