Bread making equipment

Becca asked for links to the equipment I purchased after reading Flour Water Salt Yeast: The Fundamentals of Artisan Bread and Pizza and deciding to take it up as a hobby>:

Weights and Measures

• OXO Good Grips 5-pound Food Scale with Pull-Out Display
• Smidgen Measuring Spoons (I bought it mainly for the 1/16" teaspoon measuring spoon)
• Taylor Digital Instant-Read Pocket Thermometer (I liked that not only was a battery included, so was an extra one!)
• Camwear Polycarbonate Round Food Storage Container (12-Quart)
• Camwear Round Seal Cover (12, 18 & 22-Quart)
• Camwear Polycarbonate Round Food Storage Container (6-Quart) (I started with one but ended up buying another two once I fell in love with making biga)
• Camwear Round Seal Covers (6 & 8 Quart)

Proofing Baskets

• Frieling 8" Round Brotform (I bought this first)
• 2 Piece Masterproofing Round Banneton Baskets (I've come to prefer these)

Oven Equipment

• Lodge Pro-Logic P10D3 DCast Iron Dutch Oven, Black, 4-Quart (I eventually bought a second one, to save time, since two will fit side by side in my oven)
• OXO Good Grips Silicone Oven Mitt (I bought two so I'd have one for each hand ;-)
• CDN High Heat Oven Thermometer (I used this once and discovered our oven runs about 15 degrees hot; I've never used it since)

Pizza Equipment

• Ironwood Gourmet Acacia Wood Pizza Peel
• Old Stone Oven Pizza Stone Round (16")
• Lodge Logic 8" Pre-Seasoned Skillet

Bread Knife

• Zyliss Bread Knife, 8½" (we affectionalitely refer to this knife as our faca de pão)
