First off, let me just say – this heated proofing basket is a TOTAL game-changer for sourdough lovers. As someone who’s battled with dough that refuses to rise in chilly kitchens, the built-in thermostat feels like magic. It maintains the perfect cozy environment (like a warm hug for your dough!), cutting fermentation time by HALF compared to my old rattan basket.

The silicone material? Chef’s kiss! No more flour stuck in crevices – a quick wipe cleans it effortlessly. And when I’m done, it folds flat to tuck beside my stand mixer (bye-bye, bulky storage struggles). Extra love for the included baking tools – the scoring lame is sharper than my last Amazon purchase!

One winter morning test: Normally my dough would take 4+ hours to proof. With Yacumx? Ready in 2 hours flat, with that dreamy jiggle and doubled volume. The crust bloomed beautifully in the oven too – no more sad, dense loaves!

Small note: The heating dial could be more precise (I keep it at medium for sourdough), and I wish it came in more sizes. But honestly? For consistent results and stress-free baking, this is now my most reached-for tool. 10/10 would recommend to any bread nerd!
