Do you spritz the baguettes with water before baking? Are the insides a bit doughy? You might also not be baking long enough, and, too, as you said, oven might not be hot enough.
I was following the recommendation to put a bunch of ice cubes in a pan under the baking stone, but DOESN’T THAT TOTALLY COOL DOWN THE OVEN? Duh.
I was also spritzing the sides of the oven to make steam but I think that also cooled down the oven.
