How hot is a pizza oven?

A commercial pizza oven cooks at high temperatures to create the ultimate melt with a crispy crust. Read on to find out how hot a home pizza oven should get and how much heat you really need to cook yours perfectly!

Your ideal home pizza oven temperature should be between 450-500°C to cook a pizza to sublime perfection.

These high temperatures are ideal for recreating a restaurant-quality Neapolitan style pizza at home. When cooking a New York-style or Detroit style pizza, however, you’ll need to bring the oven temperature down a little, to a toasty 350°C.

Why Must a Pizza Oven Be So Hot?

Any foodie knows there’s an art to cooking the perfect pizza. The high temperatures achieved in a pizza oven allows you to cook the pizza quickly meaning the dough can puff, rise and bake super-fast (60 seconds for some pizza styles!) without toppings overcooking.

When cooked at high enough temperatures, your home-made pizza will come out the oven with a slightly crispy crust, with hot bubbly cheese that has melted evenly over the pizza’s surface.
