Hi, I’m a home bread baker from NJ, Italian American and I make all my own breads, rolls and pizza dough. I started getting interested in baking breads about 16 yrs ago with the no knead method baked in the Dutch oven. I make my doughs unique to whatever I’m making. I found your channel searching for Scala recipes. I’ve baked 2 already which came out great. Unlike you using pizza dough…..lol, I used a Scala bread recipe. As far as pizza doughs go, some use lean doughs, and some use slightly enriched doughs adding sugar and oil. I use the latter. Now my typical no knead bread is 75% hydration, but focaccia and ciabatta breads are 80%. Pizza dough and baguettes are 65-68%. After seeing the Scala recipes, one from KAF, and saw yours, the dough isn’t the same, but still might work. I used a Poolish for Scala and also sometimes for baguettes, but I use a straight dough for pizza.

They are also reasonably priced!!

Pizza looked pretty good. You know he was being coy with you about his hydration level! Regarding cheese, the part-skim Grande is a much better product than anything we can get part-skim at the store. Part-skim mozzarella does not taste right on my pizza at home. I usually use whole milk. I do upside sown-style. I found that works best in a home oven.

Hey Bobby, here's a tip you might already know about, put a light coating of oil on your spoon before you dip it into the malt and it won't stick, it will just slide off into your dough, with no mess. And you did the spritz with the water and the ice cubes too, you did well Grasshopper! 👍 LOL...

Bread flours are known to be heartier flours. Stronger with great water absorbtion. Pizza flours can be that way as well in fact many "pizza" flours are also great bread flours. Weaker pizza flours are often used for shorter fermentations and provide a more gentle chew. It's really not about the label, its about the contents.

Other recipes I’ve seen use a preferment (biga) for the dough. My all purpose doughs are no knead, which I would make at a lower hydration to shape. It still ferments overnight. I’ve used a Poolish for baguettes but biga is a stiff preferment. I saw your other video and you use a straight dough, No Preferment.

Okay so what do you have to do is add the sea salt to the water first, room temperature, then you add the flour, and then add the yeast sprinkled on top of the flour. Just toss with a wooden spoon to incorporate it, then put it in the stand mixer for about 3 minutes. Let it sit for 20 minutes, then give it a few more seconds in the stand mixer and you'll have the perfect high hydration New Haven style dough. Been making it for a while now

I live in Ft Collins, and so am well familiar. Beau Jo's arose probably 50 or 60 years ago in Idaho Springs CO, feeding skiers coming down from the slopes, and very filling was their very successful mantra. THICK, look at the baguette like crust frame on the Mountain. I grew up eating actual NY style in the city and the NJ side of the river and could never stand Beau Jo's, not real pizza to me. In all fairness though when they started up good pizza in Colorado was very unusual, so they were wandering in a wilderness without much to compare themselves to but their whole thing was making bread with stuff on it🙂

Charlie does have it right, details matter and your pies are better if you follow his suggestions, including things like rye or spelt flour, diastatic malt powder etc.. Obviously if you were commercial and doing a few hundred pies a day you'd be in a whole different world, but for pizza at home he is a great source. His spreadsheet really does help you get crust thickness right, which I think is the most common reason home baked is not so good 🙂
