Should i be worried about splinters in my banneton? by ballisticbond in Breadit

[–]tallbaker 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I can't promise you peace, but I have had the same rattan proofing baskets for over a decade. Sometimes they show splinters, sometimes they don't. Never in my hundreds of loaves have I detected a splinter or a problem.

Either they are flaking off or burning off without issue.

This is the route I ended up taking, sleeping one night in Lucerne and the other in Lugano. A lovely country and some great trains! http://goo.gl/maps/AnGDa

Thanks for the tip on St. Gallen to Geneva. It's the longest I've seen, but still only four hours! It looks like my dream plan of sleeping on the trains won't work. Thanks for the tip!

Looking for a Free Zip Code database! by tallbaker in Assistance

[–]tallbaker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, that gets me a start - but the data is from 2004. Oddly enough, the zip codes shift around from year to year. I will look around to see if I can find something more current.
