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.

Smart Lid Design+

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. 

Thermal Temperature Sticker +

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.

Care Instructions +

Hand wash lid only. Dishwasher may cause rusting.

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.
