Sourdough Bread baking pans

[BWHLover]

Question to the people making homemade sourdough bread, are you using standard bread pans or are you using special sourdough bread pans or have you fashioned something homemade ?

I just use my normal loaf pans, or a flat pan if I make a long shaped loaf.

I've not found a need yet to fashion my own pans, though you've got me thinking now... :)

Ordinary bread pans for me. I have a set of 4 that are connected together, industrial ones from a closed bakery. Heavy son-of-guns too!

I was thinking I could use my cast iron dutch over for round loaves but for long narrow loves I need ideas so the loaf keeps it's shape in the oven.

Don't French bread pans look sort of like an 8 cut right down the middle and then laid on it's back? That are sort of like a uu but not very deep. I think the idea is to lay 2 long thin pieces of dough to make a baguette shape. One of those might work for your longer loaves.
