The YnysTec Sourdough Banneton Bread Proofing Basket is designed for home bakers and culinary enthusiasts who want to achieve professional-grade, artisanal crust patterns and improved structure in their sourdough loaves. By providing consistent shape and moisture control during the final proof, it helps create that coveted bakery-style loaf; however, because these baskets are handcrafted from natural rattan, users should expect slight variations in dimensions and ensure they are thoroughly dried between uses to prevent mold.

No, this basket is for proofing only and should not be placed inside the oven during the baking process.
Gently brush out loose flour after use. If dough gets stuck, let it dry and then brush it off. Do not wash with soap or submerge in water.
It is recommended to hand wash the liner in cold water and air dry to prevent shrinking.
These baskets are handmade from natural materials, so small variations in size and weight are normal and part of the artisanal character.
The liner is optional. You can use it for sticky doughs or use the bare basket if you want to imprint the distinct coil pattern on the loaf's crust.
Ensure you are using enough flour, preferably rice flour, or utilize the included cloth liner for sticky doughs.
The basket was not dried completely after use. Clean it with a brush, dry it thoroughly in the sun or by a low-heat oven, and ensure storage is in a well-ventilated area.
Check that the dough was properly shaped with good surface tension; if it remains sticky, increase your dusting or rely on the cloth liner.
Before the first use, lightly dust the basket with flour to 'prime' the surface. To maintain the life of your basket, never submerge it in water. After proofing, shake out any excess flour and leave the basket in a warm, dry area or near the residual heat of your oven to ensure it dries completely before being stored. If necessary, use a stiff-bristled brush to remove any dried dough remnants. The basket is compatible with most standard oval-shaped sourdough recipes weighing approximately 500g to 750g.
