But they don't absorb moisture - one of the benefits of a ceramic pizza stone is the stone absorbs excess moisture so the crust turns out more crunchy

Have you tried a steel?

I get better crispy bases from steel than stone.

Don’t think a stone can absorb water at oven temperatures, either material transfers heat and turns moisture to steam.

Hmmm interesting, I'll have to look into one! I've been using a ceramic one for ages, maybe I've been missing out
