Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

This is my very first proofing basket. The coils are tidy and even. The metal nails are secure/flush with the basket material.

This is good for one smallish loaf. It gives your loaf support to give it the perfect shape during the proofing process. It also makes your loaves have a better crispier crust.

I love the whisk it comes with and the razor blade! The score is sharp and does a great job. This also has a scorer and it’s much nicer to use than a knife. Plus the cutter works a lot smoother than just a knife!

The liner is made of some kind of really textured, beige-colored woven cloth. Dusting generously with rice flour is a great way to use the bowl without the cloth, which does make a beautiful loaf.

The craftsmanship is impeccable. They seem like they'll hold up well and if priced competitively, they're a fine choice.



Cons

The liner has a strong unpleasant smell like a fermented yogurt or kashk. They make it look so big in the photos but the bowl wouldn’t hold two hamburger buns. Do not buy.

    I did a bunch of reading on the sourdough reddit which was informative but a little overwhelming and then i watched some youtube videos that were a little more helpful but kind of slow

    Also a tip that may help if you experience sticking for me the most important thing you need besides your dough and your banneton will be rice flour for dusting the top of your loafinside of your banneton before proofing


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The rice flour wont prevent any of the proofing or change the flavor but it also wont soak into the bread or the basket so it prevents sticking of any kind

    I bake breads at home often but usually let them rise in a regular metal bowl

    Rattan the material the basket is made from is actually a stem of a palm used to make wicker furniture

    The basket itself is very light in weight and is only used for dough proofing not baking
