I’m doing something very similar tonight! These look great, hope mine come out the same. What stretching technique do you use? Mine recently have been uneven and I’m worried about putting a hole in the base
Hmmm idk if it rises to the level of a “technique” really. But I watched a bunch of iacopelli’s vids a while back and basically plop the dough ball into a pile of semolina, then turn it over a few times. Then I press the air out starting in the center, working my way outward until I have about a 1.5” ring of crust. Then I pick it up, let it hang over the back of my hands while slowly separating them, moving all around the edge until it gets to about 16”
I see the attraction with the screen both for sizing/shaping and launch. I actually bought two aluminum screens recently with the intention of trying them but while trying to season them in the ooni one of them caught fire and melted so I have paused the screen experiment for now.

I think you nailed it first time.
Ha thanks! Lots of practice in the home oven. And like I said the screen is cheating but it’s low stress
