About JayArr Pizza

What this site is

JayArr Pizza helps you make good pizza at home. At its center are four tools that share one set of formulas: a planner that works your dough back from dinner time, a calculator for crowds, sizes, sauce and cheese, an oven guide, and a diagnosis tool for when a bake goes wrong. Around them are guides to dough, ovens, toppings and regional styles.

Who writes it

Jay Arr is a pen name. Jay owns an Ooni and makes pizza at home, and runs the sister sites jayarr.coffee, jayarrbread.com and jayarrchocolate.com in the same way.

How the work is done

The site is research-led. Formulas, fermentation schedules and oven settings come from published methods: Ken Forkish's The Elements of Pizza, Tony Gemignani's The Pizza Bible, Modernist Pizza, The Neapolitan Pizza by Enzo Coccia and colleagues, King Arthur Baking, and the manufacturers' manuals for each oven. Each tool and guide cites the sources it relies on.

Where those sources disagree, the guides say so and explain which method they follow. Fermentation times are planning windows rather than predictions, so the tools tell you what ready dough looks and feels like. Oven advice follows the manufacturer's safety instructions.

Product comparisons are research comparisons, built from manufacturers' specifications and published reviews. They are not hands-on tests, and the site does not claim tests it did not do.
