Description

The Feinback Banneton is built for bakers who understand that great crust, open crumb, and structure begin inside the basket.  

Our basket is handwoven from unbleached Indonesian rattan, and meet the highest standards of craftsmanship, certification, and design.

BONUS: All our Banneton baskets come with a premium European Flax Linen Liner and a Canvas Storage Bag!

Benefits

  • Premium Artisan Quality: Handcrafted from natural Indonesian rattan, our bannetons are non-toxic and unbleached. No mystery coatings. No questionable finishes. Just clean, food-safe materials you can trust.
  • Designed with Higher Sides: Our basket stands 9 cm (3.5") tall, compared to the standard 8 cm (3.1"). This extra height provides better dough support during proofing, preventing overflow and giving bakers the freedom to work with larger, higher-hydration loaves (up to ~1.5–2.2 lbs / 700–1000 g of dough).
  • 100% Belgian European Flax Linen Liners: Grown and woven under the strict standards of the Alliance for European Flax-Linen & Hemp. Heirloom-grade linen that releases dough effortlessly and improves with every bake. 
  • Beautiful, Gift-Worthy Craftsmanship: All our banneton baskets come in elegant, gift-ready packaging. It's is a meaningful, practical, and beautiful gift.

Lifetime Warranty

At Feinbäck, we believe quality tools should last a lifetime — and we’re willing to back that up.

We craft each product with care, using premium materials and attention to detail. So when you purchase a Feinbäck tool, you’re not just buying something beautiful — you’re investing in something built to last. That’s why we proudly offer a Lifetime Limited Warranty on all our products.

Care

Before First Use

  • Lightly mist the inside of your banneton with water, then dust with flour (rice flour is best for non-stick results).
  • Allow to dry before first proofing.
  • Recommended to wash linen liner before first use to remove dust and debris

Each Use

  1. Prepare: Generously flour the inside of the basket or the linen liner.
  2. Place Dough: Put your shaped dough seam-side up.
  3. Proof: Let the dough rise, covered with a cloth.
  4. Turn Out: Gently invert onto your baking surface or Dutch oven.

Cleaning & Maintenance

  • After each use, tap out excess flour.
  • Brush clean with a stiff bristle brush.
  • Allow the basket to air dry fully before storing to prevent mold.
  • If dough sticks, let it dry, then brush off — avoid scrubbing with water.
  • Never soak the rattan in water or put in the dishwasher.
  • Wash linen liner as needed with mild, unscented, laundry detergent in cool water. Tumble dry with low temperature heat setting.

Do’s & Don’ts

Do season your banneton with flour regularly for a natural non-stick layer.

Do store in a dry, well-ventilated place.

Do enjoy the natural spiral pattern or use the linen liner for smooth loaves.

Don’t wash with soap or soak in water.

Don’t store damp — moisture can lead to mold.

Don’t worry if the basket darkens over time — this is normal and part of the seasoning process.

Key Features

Why you'll love our Proofing Basket

Feinbäck products are thoughtfully crafted for people who find joy in baking, with timeless design, honest materials, and everyday functionality that make each bake feel more meaningful.

No mystery coatings. No questionable finishes.

Our bannetons contain no harmful substances or chemicals. They are all FDA, LFGB and REACH compliant.

Improved Spring and Structure

Higher sides provide better support for wetter, high-hydration sourdoughs and larger dough weights (700 g–1000 g / ~1.5–2 lbs). Your boule holds its shape during proofing, rises taller, and bakes with improved oven spring and structure.

Gift-Ready Packaging

The Feinback Banneton comes in elegant, gift-ready packaging. It’s thoughtful design, and elegant presentation, embodies the Feinback promise: tools made with integrity, designed to last, and crafted to inspire bakers who take pride in their craft.

Sustainability in Every Fiber

Linen is one of the world’s most sustainable fabrics. Flax requires little water, no synthetic fertilizers, and the entire plant is used with zero waste. By choosing linen, you’re choosing a material that respects the planet as much as it respects your craft.

What Our Customers Say

5.0 out of 5
I love these linens. Such a huge difference between these and the usual cotton ones that everyone else sells. These are soft, pretty, and very durable. Plus they look great on my kitchen counter.
