FAQs

What is the size of this basket?

This model is 23cm in diameter and 8cm deep, ideal for standard-sized sourdough loaves.

Can I put the basket in the oven?

No. The rattan banneton is for the proofing stage only. Do not place it inside the oven.

How do I clean the cloth liner?

The cloth liner can be washed in warm water with mild detergent. Air dry thoroughly before using it again.

Do I always have to use the liner?

No, the liner is optional. Use it for a smooth crust or very sticky doughs, or leave it out if you want the classic spiral pattern on your bread.

Is the material food safe?

Yes, the basket is made from natural, food-grade rattan, making it perfectly safe for dough fermentation.

Troubleshooting

Dough is sticking to the rattan coils

Ensure you are using enough flour (preferably rice flour) and that the basket is thoroughly dry before placing the dough inside.

Mold spots appearing on the rattan

This is caused by trapped moisture. Scrub the area with a stiff brush and a little vinegar, then dry it thoroughly in direct sunlight or a warm, dry area.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable and sustainable natural rattan material
  • Provides a classic artisan spiral aesthetic to bread
  • Includes a machine-washable cloth liner
  • Lightweight and easy to handle during the proofing process

Cons

  • Requires proper seasoning with flour before first use
  • Hand wash only; cannot be placed in the dishwasher
  • Must be kept completely dry to prevent mold growth

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To get the most life out of your YnysTec Banneton, proper maintenance is vital:

  1. Initial Seasoning: Lightly mist the basket with water and dust with flour, then let it dry completely before the first use.
  2. Cleaning: Never submerge the basket in water. After use, simply shake out excess flour and use a stiff-bristled brush to remove any dried dough bits.
  3. Drying: Always air dry the basket in a well-ventilated area or near a warm oven after cleaning. Moisture trapped in the coils can lead to mold.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. If you live in a humid climate, ensure it is bone-dry before putting it away in a cabinet.
