Pizza stones may darken with use. Weber describes this discoloration as normal and not necessarily harmful to performance or flavor. The instructions here follow Weber; always prioritize your own model's manual, particularly for coated stones.

Finish cooking and allow the stone to cool completely. Never touch a hot stone or pour cold water onto it.
Place the cool stone in a safe location and inspect for remaining cheese or dough. Avoid moving it unnecessarily while hot.
Gently loosen stuck-on food with a plastic scraper or spatula. Avoid sharp metal implements that might gouge the surface.
Following Weber's guidance, rinse lightly with water. Do not use soap or dish detergent, and do not leave it soaking.
A darkened surface alone is not a reason for harsh chemical treatment. Allow the rinsed stone to drain and dry thoroughly.
Store dry indoors. Stop using a visibly cracked or broken stone and consult the manufacturer. Follow another brand's own care instructions.
