Pros & Cons
Pros
The leaflet had some suggestions on how to make bread. Here is what i wrote about it on my blog. It's very easy to use and mine arrived in perfect condition - no problem with packaging or damage of any sort.
The la cloche dome makes delicious bread like it was baked in a brick oven. The cover keeps the dough from drying out during the ferment.
Use a levain (sourdough starter) to make from-scratch, artisan boules for your family. I own two and use them to make african sourdough bread. If you want to make artisan bread, this is the cooking vessel to get.
I proof all of my doughs, covered well, for 8-14 hours in the refrigerator. Then gently knead the dough and back for 30 more min. Preheat your oven (keep the cloche in there the whole time) to 500f.
Cons
La cloche was broken in the box. It was packed in a foolishly light box. Amazon needs to package these things better. This is not a toy and you should keep the family well away.
