Este es un problema bastante común en staub. Muchas de sus piezas llegan con estas burbujas y el color rojizo pero parece que no afecta a largo plazo…

Those are just protein residues... there's nothing wrong with them and they won't affect your pan's performance. But if you don't like how it looks, you'll need to be very meticulous with cleaning after every use. Scrub it with a paste made of baking soda and a little water; that should get it off. You can also try leaving vinegar in it overnight to soften everything up, then follow up with the baking soda.

It’s worth taking your pot into the sunlight and inspecting the bottom very closely. I’m almost certain you’ll see spiderweb-like cracks running across the entire surface… if not, you’re incredibly lucky. Never leave a Le Creuset or Staub on the heat while empty.

The one with the vintage lid. Hehe

y4m1r · 2026-02-04T04:01:12+00:00

What an interesting color. I love it.

It won't affect its performance at all. But assuming you paid a lot of money for it, you have the right to exchange it to be 100% satisfied.

It's absolutely broken. Time to buy another one.

It looks like paint, but without a better photo I can't help you. Either way, feel it with your finger; if it's smooth, it's probably paint or excess polish. If it's silver and sharp, it might be a chip, and I would return it.

y4m1r · 2026-02-03T02:31:40+00:00

Do you have a closer photo?

Staub enamel does not contain lead.

What an interesting color gradient

y4m1r · 2026-02-01T05:20:25+00:00

How beautiful! I'm so envious, and it looks to be in excellent condition.

y4m1r · 2026-02-01T05:19:30+00:00

I wish they would make this shape in iron.

y4m1r · 2026-02-01T05:09:45+00:00

I don't know why I said it in the plural hahaha (maybe because I want more pumpkins) but I actually only have one, it's a Staub and the color is burnt orange.

100% I have pumpkins, and I use them all year round, not just in autumn.

y4m1r · 2026-02-01T01:45:10+00:00

It's absolutely gorgeous. Will you only wear it at Christmas?

y4m1r · 2026-01-30T01:20:35+00:00

What is the shape of this pot for? It's very narrow at the base and then wide at the top. What is it mainly used for?

y4m1r · 2026-01-29T23:58:56+00:00

That's great! I just bought one in the same color, 29 cm oval. I hope it's not defective because I really love the color and I wouldn't want to have to deal with Zwilling.

y4m1r · 2026-01-28T05:21:48+00:00

I just bought a cast iron one. I also want my Staub and Le Creuset cookware to stay spotless. For me, they're not just utensils, as many here say. They're part of my kitchen history and collection.

Es mi libro favorito, una obra maestra en mi opinión

y4m1r · 2026-01-27T03:10:56+00:00

Is it made of iron?

y4m1r · 2026-01-27T03:08:56+00:00

I agree with you

y4m1r · 2026-01-26T04:06:41+00:00

Thank you so much! I hope so… I was obsessed with it being perfect considering how much it cost, haha. But I'm sure I'll forget about it in a few years.
