Is this a good choice to store homemade bread?

We have been very satisfied with this simple, attractive bread box for storing all types of bread and other baked goods.

Yes, it is - it fits the 2lbs loaf from my large Zojirushi breadmaker. I'm just not happy with the quality of the box - the thin bamboo veneer is coming apart at the corners because they're not glued properly and the veneer is warped.

The slots are wide enough for bagels...I think it would be wide enough for your particular bread.

Keep lid open during the first few minutes of operation to check that the dough has the correct amount of moisture. It should be tacky but not overly wet. The bread maker also does better with 1.5lb loaves, rather than the full size 2lb recipes. Use at least 1/2 fresh bread flour.

I think it would be a great pantry I like your idea and if my kitchen wasn't so small I would use one for a pantry too. I use mine in my sewing room. It looks very nice and yes it is sturdy. Congrats on your new house.

It is not airtight and if I didn't remember wrongly, it has holes. I bought it for bread storage but it doesn't work.

This will hold thick regular slices, but not oblong or fresh baked loaf slices that are long. I usually toast one end of long bread and then the other side. This is not a real big issue for me, because worst case I toss it in the oven.

In my opinion it will not keep the bread any longer than if you left it outside the box; it is just a good way to organize it and keep it off your counters or in your microwave (as storage). Yes, leave it in the bag and you do have to clean crumbs out or you could get bugs.

You definitely should NOT put this in the ovenThis basket is used purely for the proofing stage, not the cooking stage. After the bread is proofed, you turn the bread out on or into whatever cooking vessel you want to use for bakingThis basket would definitely quickly get destroyed in the oven

I use recipes from a bread maker recipe book, not a home made bread recipe that I have for making bread in the oven. It is important to follow it precisley in terms of putting the ingredients in the right order that it calls for. You can find nice bread machine recipe books on Amazon and also the one they give you with this purchase is nice. Hope this helps..

Yes, absolutely, this container vault is very secure and safe. It has been free from bugs and has securely stored by Poochon's dry dog food so I'm confident to say it would safely store your flour or sugar. I hope my answer is helpful in your decision making.

No it is not air tight. It actually has air holes, this keeps the bread fresh longer. My homemade bread usually keeps for about 3 days in this box. It lasts the same amount of time on the counter before starting to mold but it goes stale immediately, this box keeps it fresh and soft.

Absolutely. I buy several packages and keep them in the freezer for impromptu times. Makes great garlic bread, cheese bread, etc.

It might - I was keeping wrapped bread in there and it was molding very quickly. Now I keep just crackers and cookies in there - not my best purchase but probably because I didn't match it to my needs.

As of yet I have had no problems with this jar, and I do use it for flour. It serves its purpose as well as looking great on my counter. Good luck!

The last bun in the middle would be funky. Make the whole recipe and freeze the rest. As a side note, it has been our experience that home made bread lasts longer. Cool it as normal and store it in your fridge.

That should not be a problem. There is plenty if space between the little hanging mounts and the actual basket. I put standard sized loaf of bread in mime just to give you an idea. Theres enough space for me to put 2 loaves of bread at a time.

I use this container for bread flour. It is pretty good made. I have been using this for over 6months and I never have any trouble with any bugs and humidity.
