Brød & Taylor Sourdough Home

Use precise temperatures to store and control your starter like never before.

The Sourdough Home is designed to heat or cool to keep your starter at the perfect temperature. Feed your starter on your schedule: from twice a day to once a week. Change the temperature to adjust the flavour profile, aroma, and texture of your bread.

You’ll never get such precise temperature controls from your fridge as the Sourdough Home does.

Great bread begins with a great starter

When it comes to sourdough starter, temperature is everything. The complex mix of microbes that cause bread to rise – and give your bread that distinctive taste and aroma – are extremely sensitive to temperature.

Efficiency

To maintain a stable temperature, the Sourdough Home constantly adjusts the heating or cooling power. Temperature settings close to the ambient room temperature will require a very small amount of power, while temperature settings significantly above or below room temperature will require more power.

Features:

• Degree-by-degree setpoints from 5-50°C
• Fits a single 1 litre jar or 2 small jars
• Two shelves for flexible storage of small items
• 3-year Limited Warranty (with registration)

The folding proofer, was a novel home-made gift from Brod & Taylor’s founder, Michael Taylor, to his elderly mother-in-law. She needed a reliable way to rise bread in her small – often cold – South Dakota kitchen. Requests from other bakers soon followed. So began his quest to develop a proofer that could be built for everyone. And of course, it had to fold for easy storage. A seemingly endless process of designs, prototypes and tests finally led to the first Folding Proofers hitting the market in 2012.
