Fire brick vs commercial baking stone
Just getting started with bread (lots of reading & You Tube) - and have a low-end, garden variety apartment gas oven. SO - it appears adding a stone will help. I have looked at a variety of baking stones on amazon, and a nice one at 14" x 16" x .8" comes in at $40.
For $36 - I can get a pack of 6 fire bricks (https://amzn.to/3cev6xk [1]) that are 9" x 4 1/2" x 1.25". This will give an 18" x 13.5" working area. Does seem like a better route - any comments?
