How do I clean and care for my baking stone?Updated 7 months ago
### How to clean your baking stone
The best way to clean your baking stone is to wait until your oven has cooled,
remove it, flip it upside down, and reinsert it into your oven. The extreme
heat will burn off any residue underneath your stone the next time you cook.
You can do this as often as needed.

You can scrape off stubborn burnt bits of food using the [Ooni Pizza Oven
Brush](https://ooni.com/products/ooni-pizza-oven-
brush?_pos=2&_sid=ae3011927&_ss=r).
Don't worry about your stone changing colour; that's completely normal and is
the sign of a well-loved Ooni oven!
### Stone care tips:
* Avoid water
* Always handle _carefully_ with two hands
* It's recommended to store your stone indoors when cool and not in use - keep the box the stone arrives in to do so
