The instructions recommend 24 hours drying time for best results; then step 1 is baking @ 225 F - should the stone dry 24 hours prior to baking or is that inclusive of the baking time?

BEST ANSWER: Please allow 24 hours of drying time prior to baking. After that, the stone can be baked in the oven for 30 minutes at 225° F on a baking sheet. After 30 minutes, turn the oven off. The pieces will be very hot so allow them time to cool in the oven prior to removal.StaffMarch 19th, 2025Staff
