Make sourdough starter care a more manageable part of your day with the Brod & Taylor Sourdough Home & Starter Jar Bundle. Combining a temperature-controlled starter keeper with a purpose-designed glass jar, this practical pairing helps you manage fermentation, monitor growth, and simplify feeding. Whether you bake regularly or save your bread-making for the weekend, it gives you greater control over your sourdough routine.
5–50°C temperature range: heats and cools to manage fermentation.
Flexible feeding: cooler settings can extend intervals to 2–5 days.
Glass jar: designed to fit inside the Sourdough Home.
Easy growth tracking: inch and centimetre scales plus an adjustable marker ring.
Simple cleaning: dishwasher-safe jar and lid.
Give your culture a dedicated environment with temperature control that supports more predictable fermentation. The Sourdough Home provides both heating and cooling, helping you manage the effects of seasonal kitchen temperature changes. Settings around 24–26°C encourage activity for regular baking, while lower temperatures slow the process, giving you more control over when your starter develops.
Fit starter maintenance around your plans. By slowing fermentation, cooler settings can allow feeding every two, three, or five days, depending on your chosen temperature and feeding routine. Fewer refreshments mean less flour used and less discard produced—a useful benefit for occasional bakers who want to maintain an established starter between baking sessions.
The included sourdough starter jar makes feeding, stirring, and checking progress straightforward. Its wide opening offers easy access, while measurement scales and an adjustable black ring let you see how far your culture has risen. The 946ml jar accommodates up to 300g of fully risen starter, and its loose-fitting ABS lid allows fermentation gases to escape. Both pieces are dishwasher safe; the glass jar is also microwave safe, with the lid removed. Together, they make everyday starter care easier from mixing to cleaning.
Why should I keep my starter in the Sourdough Home?
The Sourdough Home maintains your starter at a consistent temperature so you can reduce feedings, minimise discard, and bake on your own schedule. It eliminates temperature fluctuations, simplifies maintenance, and gives you flexibility with feeding frequency.
Do I still need to feed my starter every day?
No! Using the Sourdough Home, you can lower the temperature and slow fermentation. This means less frequent feeds!
Will the Sourdough Home reduce discard?
Yes! Feeding it less often naturally creates less discard.
Do I need to monitor or adjust it regularly?
No! All you need to do is set it to your desired temperature and let it run. The Sourdough Home will maintain a stable environment.
