Product Description

750g of dough in a Bulka basket: Craving a tangy sourdough loaf? Are you itching to try out that new Italian focaccia recipe or master the perfect rye bread? This oval bread proofing basket holds up to 750g of your favorite dough and ensures that it maintains its shape during the final rise, making it ideal for making pillow-soft bread without fear of deflation!
Thick walls maintain a consistent temperature: No one likes sad, uneven bread that screams "my baker didn't cook me properly!" " Fortunately for even the most inexperienced bread bakers, our thick-walled oblong bread rising basket provides all-over insulation, maintaining consistent temperatures while you masterfully ferment and proof beautiful artisan bread.
Make beautiful, even crusts: Do you yearn to hear the crackle of warm, crusty bread straight from the oven? Create airy, golden-crusted loaves with Bulka baskets, which evenly absorb moisture for dramatically improved breathability and flavor. Once you've proven your loaves with a Bulka basket, you'll never go back!
Our baskets are made from environmentally friendly wood pulp and harness the power and beauty of nature from tree to table without harming it. Our spruce pulp baskets are more environmentally friendly than rattan products made from rainforest palms because they are sustainably sourced from local German forests. Furthermore, you’ll love the’fact that’they’are 100% biodegradable and chemical free!
Is it easy to remove and clean? Is it difficult to clean? That will not happen on our watch! Wet dough is less likely to get stuck in grooves because of the non-stick texture and larger surface area. There's also no need to waste time doing laundry. Simply dry your bread proofer in a warm, well-ventilated area (or in the residual oven heat after baking) and brush away any remaining flakes with a stiff brush.

Questions & Answers

In order to bake bread from this mold, what size Dutch oven or enamel pan should I use?

Your preferred Dutch oven must be large enough to accommodate the additional bread size. In order for the bread to expand outwards, there should be about 1 inch of extra space on each side. I hope this information is useful.

Is it possible to submerge this in water to clean it?

Wood pulp bannetons cannot be cleaned with water or soap. Place the bannetons in a warm, well-ventilated area to accomplish this. aired out until completely dry After your bread has been baked, you can also use the residual heat from your oven. At a distance of approximately +/- The bannetons dry quickly without being damaged at 225 degrees Fahrenheit, while also killing any germs on the bowls. They'll be dry in 45 minutes, and any loose flour can be brushed out.

Thank you for reaching out to us with your query. br>During final proving, compressed wood pulp walls are designed to draw moisture from the dough, forming a lovely "skin" that traps the web of fermentation (air bubbles). This can mean they can hold a lot of moisture and need to be properly dried out between uses, though this is not always the case. br>To avoid mould formation, make sure your Bulka basket is completely dry before storing it. br>Shake out any loose flour and set aside to dry in a warm, well-ventilated area. a well-ventilated area You can also use the oven's residual heat after the bread has been baked.

Can you fit more than 750g of dough in these baskets? Isn't it true that I usually bake loaves that weigh 900 grams?

This model is recommended for doughs weighing up to 750g, as it allows for expansion during the proofing process. However, it is possible that it will be determined by the dough: In this basket, larger sourdoughs may work fine, and baker's east dough may overflow. You can experiment to see which weight works best for your dough recipe, and I hope this information is useful.

Fantastic discoveries
5/5

My old bannetons have been disposed of. This is fantastic. I make high-hydration sourdoughs and use a lot less rice flour than I used to. I put these in plastic bags and put them in the refrigerator to cold proof. I put the dough in the freezer for 30 minutes before transferring it to my Challenger Bread Pan. The dough is extremely easy to work with and scores beautifully.

The wait was well worth it
5/5

I've been using a round basket from another seller for a long time and have wished for the oval version since February 2020, when they were unavailable until recently. I rarely have to wait this long for a product, but I couldn't bring myself to purchase any of the readily available rattan banneton. I'm glad I kept my cool. You use the same flour for the basket as you did for the bread, so your dough doesn't stick and maintains its shape. It's also easy to clean.

The Challenger Bread Pan is the perfect size and shape
5/5

This is a long (oval) basket, but it fits my Challenger Bread Pan perfectly. It also allows for more small slices, which I like. Despite the lack of a liner, I've only used it three times and have had no problems with sticking.

I was let down
3/5

Paper pulp that has been pressed. Alternative to a basket or bowl that is more expensive. I've been using bowls for more than 20 years. This was a mistake on my part.

I was able to save my sourdough bread! This banneton doesn't let any dough stick to it! I ordered this basket after ruining a batch with a previous one, and I absolutely love it! I'll most likely get a few more in smaller sizes for smaller loaves

The banneton is very sturdy
5/5

The banneton is made of wood pulp, which I adore. It's extremely durable. My dough never sticks when I sprinkle it with rice flour, and the pattern's regular spacing results in the most beautiful rings on my baked loaf! I like how you just let it dry out before reusing it. There are no dishes to do!.

Despite using a lot of flour, the bread dough remained stuck
3/5

I wanted a basket that was easy to clean and wouldn't stick the dough to. However, this was not the case. Even after heavily dusting the basket with rice flour, it stuck to the inside ridges in three spots.

It's fantastic
5/5

I've dusted and overdusted cloth lined wicker and plain rattan with flour, only to fail at getting the dough to release, even after refrigerating overnight. It's aggravating to invest so much time in a process only to have it fail completely or partially. This product released perfectly the first time I used it; there was no partial degassing. I've tried both the long and round forms several times and have never had a problem. Even increasing the hydration by five percentage points had no effect on the clean release. I'm very pleased with the finished product and the outcomes.
