Chef's Tips for Best Results:

• Topping Height: Do not pile toppings too high. Excessive toppings might touch the upper heating element and burn.
• Sauce Quantity: The amount of sauce used will impact cooking time. Heavier sauce may require longer cooking.
• Crust Size: The pizza maker accommodates crusts up to 12 inches. Ensure the crust does not hang over the edge of the pan. If the crust touches the sides of the cover, the pan may not rotate, and the pizza will not cook evenly.
• Għeluq tal-għatu: Avoid opening the machine while cooking to prevent heat from escaping, which slows down the cooking process.
• Crispy Dough: The pan is non-stick, but oiling the pizza pan with vegetable oil or cooking spray can help achieve a crispier dough.
• Rising Crust: When making rising crust dough, carefully watch to prevent the rising crust from touching the upper heating element, which can cause scorching.
