Great Starter for Homemade Sourdough
“I bought this sourdough starter to begin making my own bread at home, and it worked really well. It comes dehydrated, but once activated it came to life quickly and started bubbling the way it should. The flavor of the bread turns out more authentic with a nice texture. It's easy to use even if you've never worked with sourdough before. The package arrived clean, well-sealed, and includes clear instructions. So far, I'm really happy with it.”

High quality sourdough starter
“Such an easy, healthy and delicious way to have sourdough starter! This came so quickly from the seller, the directions were right on the jar, and you could tell the quality was really good just by the smell of it. I'm excited to make my first loaf of bread very soon!”

Fantastic
“I didn't expect much when I received this small little packet. I've always started with live/wet starter so I was a little nervous, but for under $10 thought I'd give it a shot since it's labeled organic. I followed the directions and by day 5 it was ready to use and rendered fantastic baked sourdough. I would not hesitate to buy this again. I'm not an advanced sourdough bread baker by any means and this just worked great for me.”

Care GuideKeep Your Starter
Keep Your Starter
Alive Forever
Follow these simple guidelines to maintain a healthy, active sourdough starter that will last for generations.
Refrigerator Storage
If you don't bake frequently, store your starter in the fridge. Feed it once a week. When ready to bake, take it out and feed 2-3 times over 24 hours to wake it up.
Proper Hydration
Maintain a 100% hydration ratio (equal weights of flour and water). Your starter should have a thick pancake batter consistency. Adjust water slightly if too thick or thin.
Growing Your Supply
Need more starter? Simply increase the feeding amounts proportionally. For example, to get 250g of starter, feed with 125g flour and 125g water 4-8 hours before you need it.

Common Questions
Everything you need to know about caring for your sourdough starter.
If kept at room temperature, feed every 12-24 hours. If refrigerated, feed once a week. The warmer your environment, the more frequently you'll need to feed.
All-purpose flour and bread flour both work great. Rye flour ferments faster and can help revive a sluggish starter. You can also experiment with whole wheat for added nutrition.
That liquid is called 'hooch'—it's alcohol produced during fermentation. It's a sign your starter is hungry. Simply stir it back in or pour it off before feeding.
Your starter is ready when it doubles in size within 4-8 hours after feeding, passes the float test (a spoonful floats in water), and has a pleasant tangy aroma.
Absolutely! You can gift some active starter in a jar, or share dehydrated starter flakes that are easy to mail and store. Include feeding instructions for best results.
