Introducing the Sourdough Starter Jar: Your Baking Buddy for Perfect Loaves!
Ready to dive into the wonderful world of sourdough? Our Sourdough Starter Jar is here to make your bread-baking journey a whole lot easier and more fun. This jar, with its 950ml capacity, is just the right size to nurture your starter into a bubbly, tangy superstar. This product is the jar only - dried sourdough starter flakes sold separately.
Our jar features a two-part lid system:
- A silver plate to keep out contaminants
- A loose-fitting ring that allows gases to escape while still offering a light seal to protect your starter
This balance ensures that your starter remains healthy without the risk of excessive gas buildup or exposure to airborne particles.
Temperature plays a crucial role in keeping your sourdough starter active and bubbly. Our jar includes a handy thermal temperature sticker to help you find the ideal fermentation spot in your kitchen. Simply peel the white backing off and stick it to the side of your jar (make sure it's clean and dry). The sticker remains black if the temperature is outside the optimal range, and a coloured rectangle behind the number indicates the current temperature inside the jar. We recommend aiming for 26°C for best results.

Keeping your jar clean helps maintain a healthy starter and prevents unwanted mould or bacterial growth. Here are some key cleaning tips:
- Before First Use: Place glass jar in dishwasher and thoroughly dry before sticking on thermal temperature sticker. Ensure you are using a clean jar to prevent any contamination with your starter.
- Routine Cleaning: Wipe down the inside of the jar with a clean, dry cloth after each feeding to remove any dried starter residue.
- Deep Cleaning: Every few weeks, transfer your starter to a temporary container or second jar and wash your jar with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and allow it to dry completely before refilling.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Stick to mild dish soap and avoid bleach or harsh cleaners that could leave residues affecting your starter.

I had tried and failed making my own starter mostly due to lack of time to nurture it in the beginning. A search brought me to You Knead’s dried starter which it has been so good and easy! I can finally start making my own sourdough!
Your sourdough journey can finally begin, Vicki! We’re thrilled the Dried Starter gave you an easy, reliable way forward after your earlier attempts. Have fun creating your first homemade loaves! 😊🥖

Everyone in my family bought a product Father’s Day present. The hot box was a great buy as my dad was having trouble getting his starter to survive, with changing temperatures. Haven’t had any starters die since. Dad loves his hot box, constantly using it. Got the Dutch oven for him to bake with loves come out great every time. Also got one of the bundles so he could use some of the tools which he does. He was a very happy boy on Father’s Day. Very quick delivery after orders were placed. Picture one of many successful loaves.
What an incredible Father’s Day haul! We love that the Heat Box has kept Dad’s starter thriving, while the Dutch Oven and bundle are helping him turn out great loaves every time. It sounds like the whole family chose perfectly! 😊🥖
