Why You Need This Brush

Prevents Flour Buildup and Mould: Over time, dried flour cakes onto your banneton's ridges, making dough stick during proofing and creating conditions for mould. This brush removes buildup quickly and effectively, keeping your basket clean and your dough releasing perfectly every time.

Bristles That Won't Damage Rattan: The firm bristles are tough enough to lift dried flour and residue but gentle enough not to break or fray the delicate rattan fibres. 

Works with All Bannetons: Whether you have round or oval bannetons, lined or unlined, rattan or wood pulp, this brush cleans them all. The long and short bristles reach into creases and ridges, removing flour from even the tightest spaces.

How to Use

After Each Bake:

1. Fully dry out the banneton in the sun or leave it in the oven as it cools down
2. Lightly brush the inside of the banneton, removing all flour and dough residue 
3. Turn upside down and shake out all residue

Deep Cleaning (When Necessary):

Only do this if there’s a buildup on the banneton.

1. Lightly mist the banneton with water
2. Scrub it generally with the brush
3. Dry it out in the sun or in an oven set to the lowest temperature setting until dry

Note: Product colour may vary slightly due to the natural variation in wood grain and lighting.
