Do you keep the stones in your oven all the time? I assume it would not be necessary to put cast iron on a stone, but perhaps it is. What about regular oven use - do you ever take them out? Hi Marion, For me, I have a custom-made stone that takes up a whole rack in my oven, so I do leave it in the oven all the time. I bought a third rack so I don't lose any space. You don't have to put the cast-iron pan on a stone, I put one on my stone and one on the rack above and it works just fine. For smaller stones, so folks do take them out when baking other things. ~ MaryJane
