Uso de Prefermento y Temperatura de Masa Final

Me gustó mucho el uso de la biga y el poolish en la pizza sobre todo que hace uso de los porcentajes panaderos en la receta. Así mismo, me resultó muy profesional el cálculo de la temperatura de los elementos involucrados para obtener una masa con temperatura ideal de aprox 23°C

Bueno, pero se puede mejorar!

Falta información importante. Este tipo de horno utilizado requiere algunos cuidados, como temperatura ideal de la masa, para que no se queme, tiempo de horneado para evitar que se queme el fondo.
