I started baking with The baking steel , and cover the first 20-22 minutes with the shell for a couple times.
It turned out very impressed me. The shell is lighter than the Dutch oven. The bread turned out great.
Anyone who considers about purchase the shell might feel more comfortable to have one in the kitchen.
I know it’s pretty expensive, but it worst it. It works well just like we bake with the Dutch Oven. The Shell trap the steam pretty good.
