Abstract: We construct an infinite family of genus one open book decompositions supporting Stein-fillable contact structures and show that their monodromies do not admit positive factorisations. This extends a line of counterexamples in higher genera and establishes that a correspondence between Stein fillings and positive factorisations only exists for planar open book decompositions.
