Andre---One more question. When you make the preferment, how long is it left on the counter, and then do you put in the fridge until ready to use? Thank You ---Mel

Hi Mel, its not a pre-fermented, its sourdough, i just used the calculator so a could show how much i used and the hydration...

 andre,
  great technique , that oven looks like it is really hot !! i'll bet your floor was over 900 degrees . it is really hard to cook that hot in a little oven . i have given up and manage my oven to 850 deg floor as a max.

thezaman, its true its hard to cook in a small oven at high temps.... some times i get part of the pie burned like the video.. the deck temp was close around 480C.... next time iam going to try buffering some direct heat....

since i also have a little oven  let me know if that helps. i also find that if my dough is to fresh i get to much bottom bake even at 850 deg
