I'm hearing you Zan - I sneakily sent a link to my brother to buy me one of these tins for Christmas (on another web site though), but nothing forthcoming so far... maybe next Christmas

Andrea - birthday???

Not till September but worth pushing the point I think!

Knowing me, as I do, I won't be able to wait and will just buy it myself (very poor self control here where it comes to baking and related paraphernalia) 

(maybe I'll end up with two  )

i was wondering what french bread tins were then looked at the link and realised they were the curved baguette trays..funny how items take on different names in each country!

thermie crew being in the uk you must have a fair few similar sites locally without having to order them o/s??

You can buy really good bread tins from "Simply No Knead". I bought all of my tins from them 20 years ago and I am sure they will still be going strong for at least another 20.

It was great to read these hints - I have two bread tins (real ones) from my bread making course at Simply No Knead. I've put them back into service - I will definitely use the hints, don't wash but simply flour. I'm so glad i've kept them in the back of the cupboard all these years. Now I have a TM they will be used regularly. The link for the liners is great too, so much cheaper than buying in store, especially BBQ liner. Thanks for all your great tips.

I don't know which part of the world you live in but I use Bake-O-Glide here in the UK.  It is a silicone sheet which I cut to fit my tins and it can just be washed and re-used.  If you want to grease you tin, then I would recommend peanut (groundnut) oil as it has a very high smoke point.  HTH

thanks for the link for bake liners .
 l have been wanting to look into them but had never got around to it
 l can see a order coming up
now what to buy

This comes up every few months I think. I have professional bread tins I bought at a local distrubutor and have never oiled, greased or floured them nor have I ever washed them and they are never fail. Bread falls out every time.

I dare say every tin is different so it is trial and error but if you do spray them and that is not successfull then I would make sure I scrubbed it  and dried it before using it again with out spray.

I asked the local bakers and found not one of them to use anything in the pans. I guess it is the type of pan you are using that determines to grease or not to grease.

Nazar, I think you are in Australia ?  If so there are 2 companies that have great variety , and they will post.  I  think that you should think about what sort of baking you do.  I find that the tray liners are good and an oblong tin liner ,(for bread. And cake tins),   If you make a lot of muffins then these are good. They are initially expensive,  but do last a long time.  You can line a cake tin by overlapping the muffin liners in the base of a tin , and I think Judy has used her tin liner , out flat on a tray.  There is also a BBQ liner.   Other Forum Members might have more ideas for you.

I am not very good at lining tins,  so this is what i do.  The clips are clothes pegs that I bought in Holland.

The other one is simply delightful.com.au

I agee with Gert, I think it does depend on what type of tins you have.  My bread tins and roasting tins are hard-anodised made by Mermaid and not non stick, but do become so the more you use them.  However I use Silverwood tins which are non stick for cakes and flans and they need little if any greasing.
