Ours has stints in use and then long periods in the cupboard lol!

My last attempt at a loaf the other day was a dismal epic failure as the (sour)dough just grew and grew and welded itself to the underside of the lid and then it wasn't fully cooked but had a giant crater hole in the middle...........

I'm still trying to get the congealed half cooked stubborn stuff off the inside of the lid

They can take a while to get used to IME but I'm not giving up!!
