Pizza Protips: Yeast
If i may add, the water's temperature does have a great effect on the yeast. If ur water is a little over 27 degrees then yeast tends to be more active. Although if its too hot, u may kill it as well. So yes, it really is a fragile living thing. It needs a goldilocks enironment.
Right now, I swear by the poolish method. Theres a great amount of flavor u can get without the hassle of maintaining a sourdough culture.

well, chewyness is also characterized by how much your hydration is as well as how much fat or sugar u put in, the kind of flours u put in. personnally i'd use a good bread flour with good protein content, I dont like AP flour because I usually have to knead harder to get after together. I'd bump the water up to 65% or more. Go with 2 percent salt (dont go byond that). a lil olive oil. Crank the oven up as high as it can go. Get ur pizza stones or bricks. U should have a darn good pie :)
