Review on πŸ₯– Saint Germain Bakery's Extra Large Couche: Premium Heavy Duty Proofing Cloth from France - 100% Natural Flax Linen for Professional Bakers by Jamie Hill

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I'm giving this one star because I can't rate it.

One star because I can't give zero. My baguettes stuck to the sofa every time I used it. I dusted the couch generously with flour and rice flour, but to no avail. I spent more time on the bench letting the dough dry a little before placing the curly loaves on the couch and they are still sticking. I tested the same batter in bannetons and had success and a smooth transition from proofing basket to oven. I've given this couch too many options since I bought it in December 2017. The material is too absorbent and porous. Since then I've progressed to a heavier canvas and have been successful each time.

Pros
  • Fingers crossed
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
