Baking Steel Dough Container — 5L Cold Proofing Box

Cold proofing is where the flavor happens. This is the container built for it.

The Baking Steel Dough Container holds up to 1500g of flour  enough for multiple pizza dough balls or a full bread loaf and fits neatly in any standard refrigerator. Flat, low-profile, and airtight. Slide it on a shelf and forget about it for 24-72 hours while the dough does its thing.

It's also the perfect home for your 72 Hour Dough Pack. Mix, ball, drop in the container, refrigerate. Everything stays in one place, nothing dries out, nothing gets that weird fridge smell. One container, two dough packs, it fits easily.

What makes it work:

  • Airtight lid keeps moisture in and crusting out your dough comes out of the fridge exactly how it went in
  • 5L capacity handles up to 1500g of flour  multiple pizza balls or a full bread batch
