Frequently Asked Questions

Kit & Baking FAQs

Is the starter jar thermal shock resistant?

Yes! It is crafted from borosilicate glass capable of handling temperatures from -4°F to 300°F (-20°C to 150°C).

Why use a curved lame instead of a straight razor?

A curved lame cuts at a 30-degree angle under the dough skin, allowing the loaf to peel open as it expands, creating that prized blistered sourdough ear.

Does the kit come with live starter culture?

The kit is an eight-piece equipment system designed to cultivate your own wild sourdough starter from flour and water in 7 days, ensuring your starter thrives in your home climate.
