Biscotto di Sorrento for GRILLMEISTER Gas Pizza Oven XL
Original Italian Biscotto – handcrafted by Fornace Aversa
Der Biscotto di Sorrento für den GRILLMEISTER Gas-Pizzaofen XL bietet die Möglichkeit, die authentischen Backeigenschaften eines traditionellen neapolitanischen Pizzaofens in die eigenen vier Wände zu bringen. Hergestellt wird der Stein in Italien von Fornace Aversa, einem renommierten Familienunternehmen in Sant’Agnello, das sich auf die traditionelle handwerkliche Fertigung spezialisiert hat.
Im Gegensatz zu industriell gefertigten Pizzasteinen, die oft zu aggressiv die Hitze übertragen, gibt der Biscotto di Sorrento die Wärme gleichmäßig und kontrolliert ab. Dies ermöglicht einen perfekt gebackenen Pizzaboden, der Luftigkeit und Bräunung in einem ausgewogenen Verhältnis bietet. Besonders bei der Zubereitung von Pizza Napoletana kann dieser Stein seine Qualitäten ausspielen, indem er die Temperaturen ideal reguliert.
Ein weiterer Vorteil des Biscotto di Sorrento ist seine einzigartige natürliche Porosität, die hilft, überschüssige Feuchtigkeit aufzunehmen und die Hitze gleichmäßig über die gesamte Backfläche zu verteilen. Dies führt zu professionellen Backergebnissen, während die Gefahr eines verbrannten bodens deutlich minimiert wird. Der Biscotto ist aus einer speziellen Mischung natürlicher Tonmaterialien gefertigt, die reich an mineralischen und vulkanischen Bestandteilen ist, was ihm seine charakteristischen thermischen Eigenschaften verleiht.
Perfect pizza base even at very high temperatures
Jeder Stein, der von Fornace Aversa produziert wird, ist ein Unikat, da er durch zahlreiche handwerkliche Arbeitsschritte geht. Die Materialien sind nicht nur umweltfreundlich, sondern auch zu 100 % handgefertigt in Italien. Dies kann leichte Abweichungen in Form und Oberflächenstruktur zur Folge haben, die jedoch die Funktionalität und Qualität des Produkts nicht beeinträchtigen.
Mit dem Biscotto di Sorrento für den GRILLMEISTER Gas-Pizzaofen XL investieren Sie in ein Produkt, das einfach perfekt für alle ist, die echte neapolitanische Pizza zubereiten möchten. Die Handwerkskunst und die sorgfältige Herstellung garantieren ein Produkt, das nicht nur funktional ist, sondern auch das Erlebnis des Pizzabackens auf eine neue Ebene hebt.
Da jede Charge handgefertigt wird, können die Größen leicht variieren, aber der Biscotto bietet immer die gleiche hohe Qualität. Es sind keine besonderen Vorkehrungen nötig, um sicherzustellen, dass Ihr Pizzaofen die besten Ergebnisse liefert.
- an evenly baked pizza base
- a nice browning without burning quickly
- an airy, well-developed pizza crust
- a balanced cooking of base and toppings
- more control at high baking temperatures
This makes the Biscotto especially suitable for preparing Pizza Napoletana, which is traditionally baked at very high temperatures and for short baking times.
Natural porosity for professional baking results
The material used has a characteristic porous structure. This natural porosity helps absorb excess moisture from the dough and distribute heat evenly across the entire baking surface.
The advantages:
- even heat distribution
- controlled heat release
- long-lasting heat retention
- reduced risk of a burnt pizza base
- crispy base with a juicy topping at the same time
Compared to many conventional fireclay or cordierite stones, the Biscotto works less aggressively and is therefore ideal for high temperatures.
Made from natural raw materials from the Sorrento Peninsula
The Biscotto di Sorrento is made from a special natural clay blend. The raw materials from the region contain, among other things, mineral and volcanic components that give the stone its typical structure and special thermal properties.
Traditional processing creates a baking stone that reliably stores heat but transfers it to the dough base more slowly and gently by design.
Handcrafted by Fornace Aversa
The manufacturer Fornace Aversa is based in Sant’Agnello near Sorrento and represents traditional Italian oven-building and ceramic craftsmanship.
The stones are not produced fully automatically like standard industrial slabs. Each biscotto goes through several manual production steps. This is why every stone is one of a kind.
Typical characteristics may include:
- slight variations in length, width, or thickness
- a surface that is not completely smooth or even
- small pores, indentations, or inclusions
- irregular edges
- fine superficial hairline cracks
- small chips on edges or underside
- slight colour variations
These characteristics are normal for a handcrafted natural product and do not in themselves constitute a quality defect. They do not impair either the function or the baking performance of the stone.

Product & Usage
1. Which accessories are truly essential for perfect pizza in a gas or wood-fired oven?
Essential accessories include a high-quality pizza peel, a thermometer for precise temperature control, a pizza stone or rotating plate for even baking, and a brush for cleaning the baking surface. These tools make handling the oven easier and ensure optimal baking results.
2. Are the accessories compatible with my pizza oven (Ooni, Gozney, etc.)?
Most professional pizza oven accessories are compatible with different models, including both gas and wood-fired ovens. It’s important to check the dimensions of the oven and the baking surface to choose the right accessories.
3. Why should I choose professional accessories instead of cheaper alternatives?
Professional accessories are made from heat-resistant and durable materials, offer better performance and a longer service life. They improve baking quality, reduce errors, and ensure consistently perfect pizza results—both at home and in professional use.
Maintenance & Accessories
1. What maintenance do the tools require?
To keep your pizza oven tools in perfect condition, they should be cleaned after every use. Residual flour, dough, and ash can easily be removed with a brush or a slightly damp cloth once everything has cooled down. Metal tools such as peels, turners, or brushes should occasionally be treated with food-safe oil to prevent rust. Wooden handles must not be soaked or cleaned in the dishwasher. Regularly checking for wear ensures safety and a long service life.
2. Can spare parts or accessories be purchased separately?
Yes, many spare parts and accessories for pizza ovens can be purchased separately. These include, for example, replacement handles, brush heads, thermometers, or pizza stones. When buying, make sure the parts are compatible with your oven model and have the correct dimensions. This way, you can individually expand your setup or replace worn components.
3. Do you provide operating or user manuals?
Yes, for most accessories we provide user manuals or usage instructions. These are available digitally (PDF) or directly on the product page. The manuals help you use the tools correctly, handle them safely, and extend their service life.
