What’s inside and why it matters
Two natural rattan banneton baskets (9" round and 10" oval) help dough hold its shape during proofing and develop the classic spiral pattern for a bakery-style crust. The different shapes accommodate a range of loaf styles, supporting a consistent rise and an appealing surface texture from edge to edge.
- Shape-focused proofing to maintain loaf form
- Moisture management supports a crisp crust
- Visual interest with traditional spiral patterns
Fermentation made simple
The 24oz wide-mouth glass starter jar includes measurement markings, a thermometer strip, and a feeding tracker band. This combination makes it easier to monitor hydration and feeding cadence, helping you keep an active starter with less stress.

- Thermometer strip for quick temperature checks
- Feeding tracker band to stay organized over time
