Category: Dome XL (Gen 2)
The leopard spotting on my last batch was night-and-day different after I installed this—the crust came out with that classic puffy, charred rim I’d been chasing. It’s a simple swap but the higher air temp really does the trick, and cleanup was no hassle since it fits right over the opening.
My last few bakes came out with that deep, blistered char I'd been chasing for months. The narrower aperture really does trap the heat—my oven's air temp jumped noticeably higher, and the crusts have that proper leopard spotting now.
The leopard-spotting on my pies has never looked this good—the narrowed arch really locks in that heat and pushes the dome temp way up. It’s a simple add-on, but the difference in crust rise and char is night and day.
