Bulka Sourdough Banneton Bread Proofing Basket Small 9.1" Oval Smooth 500g

Best Banneton basket I’ve bought. I was originally gifted one of these, and have purchased several more since. I’ve had all different types of bannetons made from wood or composite materials and these are the only ones I never have to worry about my bread coming out. They come out easy, and the clean up is simple. I like the variety of sizes and different basket patterns. I will admit, they are a little more expensive than other types but the investment is worth it.

Very pleased with this product. The pattern and material clearly different than the typical round bannetons which make beautiful circles on boules. This one flours very nicely. I bake large loaves using 1000 grams of flour and 75-80% hydration depending on the type of flour. The final mix of close to 1800 grams fits perfectly in this basket for final proof. Using parchment paper to invert, the doughs release easily to go directly in oven. The basket cleans easily once dry with a soft toothbrush. Seems like this will be a durable product.

I love this product so much that I had to buy it again. So this is the second one that I bought. I don’t know what it is about the shape of this banneton but it really holds a shape of the dough. Well, I now get a much better oven spring when I use this. It is a little pricey, but in my opinion, it is well worth it!

Good banneton, I like the size and the construction and the fact that it doesn't stick too much. The amount of flour and water is 500gr and 350ml of water and almost fits after proofing so keep that in mind

Excellent Proofing Basket. Didn't use a liner, just rubbed a small amount of Rice Flour on the inside and the dough easily came out after proofing. I liked it so much I bought two more.

I was skeptical before buying these to replace my rattan bannetons. I thought: How much better could they really be for the higher price? The answer is, A LOT. When I first unboxed them, they looked a little questionable, but they’re clearly sturdy once you handle them. I used a vegetable brush to remove any loose wood pulp and tidy them up a little. The shape looks a little wonky, too, but my fears were put to rest after my first overnight proof in the fridge. When I first placed my shaped loaves into the brotform, they didn’t quite take up the full length of it. When I took them out to bake in the morning, they had expanded beautifully, filling up the whole thing. Curiously, it also made the seam disappear, which I’ve never had happen with my rattan bannetons. I effortlessly flipped them over onto my peel, and the outer crust was perfectly dehydrated. Scoring was incredibly smooth thanks to the dried-out crust. The final result was a longer and thinner loaf than I’m used to, which I actually prefer since I make a lot of sandwiches. After baking, I placed them in my turned-off oven to dry as the directions state so they don’t grow mold. Overall, I’m extremely pleased with my decision to buy these over traditional rattan. If you’re on the fence about splurging a little bit, I’d definitely say go for it. You won’t be disappointed!

This Banneton changed my sourdough bread baking game. I didn’t realize the importance of forming the skin on the outside of the batard in the final proofing phase. Using this banneton lined with a kitchen towel dusted with bread flour, place the batard on the center of the towel which is in banneton. I cover the banneton with a plastic bag so the bread doesn’t dry out too much. The proofed loaf rolls onto the parchment paper I use for baking in the Dutch oven. The wonderful part is that the loaf holds its shape, scoring is also easier because the skin is tight. The finished loaves bake high with the requisite ear every time. I was skeptical that this banneton was the answer - it’s perfect. I now consider myself an accomplished bread baker! Just take care of this banneton since it’s paper - use towels sprinkled with bread flour. Once done baking let the towels and banneton dry out, then put away into a plastic bag for the next time. If in a humid area include a gel pack for storage. Happy baking!

It is small but worked well!

This is a great and professional banneton, easy to. maintain if you follow the instructions. No sticking if you use a bit of rice flour. Awsome!

Excellent quality

I’m very happy with my order. Great quality and delivered much earlier than expected. I highly recommend this seller and proofing basket

Quality of the wood pulp material is superb. It is an excellent product. However one thing they could improve is that they could tell us what is the quantity of dough for this size. I have ordered a larger size and now I can’t return it.
