The WPPO 36" Pizza Stone Cleaning Brush is a full-length cleaning tool designed for maintaining the baking stone or cooking deck of a wood-fired or outdoor oven. At 36" long with a 7" wide head, it gives you the reach to clean deep into a larger oven without getting close to residual heat, while the wide wire bristle head covers the stone surface efficiently. The integrated metal scraper handles baked-on residue, burnt cheese, and carbonized debris that bristles alone won't remove. A properly maintained baking stone performs better and lasts longer — this brush makes that maintenance practical.

Product Highlights
Wire Bristles and Metal Scraper
Wire bristles dislodge ash, debris, and loose char from the stone surface efficiently. For baked-on residue, burnt cheese, and carbonized food that bristles alone can't remove, the integrated metal scraper breaks up and lifts the debris before you brush it away.
Reach for Larger Ovens
The 36" length and 7" wide, 2" deep head are sized for the larger Karma series cooking decks, where more reach and wider coverage are needed. It is also suitable for the Le Peppe, Lil Luigi, and similar ovens.
How to Clean a Pizza Baking Stone
Allow the oven and stone to cool completely before cleaning — never clean a hot stone. Sweep loose ash, debris, and char with the wire bristles in long strokes, use the metal scraper on baked-on residue, and wipe with a dry cloth if needed. Never use water, soap, or cleaning chemicals on a cordierite or fire brick surface — dry cleaning only. Light carbonized residue left on the stone after cleaning is normal and does not affect cooking performance.

- Grill owners who clean cooking grates and grill surfaces after high-heat cooks
Important Information
Always allow the oven and baking stone to cool completely before using this brush. Cleaning a hot stone poses a burn risk and can cause thermal shock cracking if cold air or moisture contacts the hot surface.
Do not use water, soap, or any liquid cleaner on a cordierite baking stone or fire brick cooking floor. These materials are porous and absorb liquids, which can cause cracking when the oven is next heated. Dry cleaning only.
Inspect wire bristles before each use. If bristles are bent, loose, or visibly worn, replace the brush. Loose wire bristles can detach and land on the cooking surface.
Store in a dry location to prevent rust on the wire bristles and metal scraper.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use water or soap to clean my pizza stone?
No. Cordierite baking stones and fire brick cooking floors are porous — they absorb liquids. Washing a stone with water or soap introduces moisture that becomes trapped inside. When the oven is next heated, that trapped moisture turns to steam and can cause the stone to crack from the inside. Always clean with dry methods only: brush with wire bristles, scrape with the metal scraper, and wipe with a dry cloth. Some discoloration and staining of the stone surface is normal and does not affect cooking performance.
When should I clean the baking stone?
Clean the stone after every cook, once it has cooled completely. Regular light cleaning prevents debris from building up and carbonizing into harder-to-remove deposits. For a busy cooking session, a quick brush between pizzas (once the stone has cooled slightly and residue has carbonized) can help maintain the surface. Never brush a fully hot stone.
How does this brush differ from the cleaning brush in the WPPO 3-Piece Kit?
The cleaning brush in the 3-piece kit has a 3" adjustable brush head and 20" overall length — sized for compact, portable ovens like the Le Peppe. This standalone brush is 36" long with a 7" wide head, making it better suited for the larger Karma series ovens where more reach and wider coverage are needed. For a Karma 25, 32, or 42, this dedicated brush is the more appropriate tool.
Is it safe to use a wire bristle brush on a cordierite stone?
Yes, when used correctly. Wire bristles are effective at removing ash and debris from cordierite and fire brick surfaces without scratching or damaging them. Use moderate pressure and sweep in consistent strokes. The key safety precaution is to inspect the bristles before each use — if any are loose or protruding abnormally, do not use the brush until it is replaced, as loose wire bristles can detach and end up on the cooking surface.
The WPPO 36" Pizza Stone Cleaning Brush is the right-sized tool for maintaining the cooking surface of a wood-fired oven — long enough to reach safely, wide enough to clean efficiently, and equipped with a metal scraper for the debris that bristles alone won't shift. Keep your stone clean and it will keep performing.
