Whether you're maintaining an active starter or experimenting with hydration levels and fermentation times, this bundle has your back.
Inside this curated kit, you'll find the core tools used by sourdough bakers around the world:

A friend recommended You Knead to begin my sourdough journey, she has been successfully baking with the starter set for a couple of years. The pack arrived quickly and is really good quality, I was so excited to get into the process. After hydrating the flakes I followed the instructions to the letter but unfortunately after 3 days the starter was covered in a fluffy white mould, so disappointing. I’m trying again now with a different starter & hopefully will be able to actually bake a loaf 🤞🏻
My experience with You knead Sourdough has been fantastic from the start, from buying my starter kit to the master class instructions and now buying my first bulk flour order. I am loving my homemade Sourdough. The easy to follow master class have made it so simple. Thank you. 🙏
It's been a great first experience with you guys, from the online store that's stocked with everything you could need on your sourdough journey to a wealth of step by step information to get you started. The Facebook page is also an excellent source of information and knowledge from new and experienced baker's alike. I'm definitely looking for to getting stuck into this new hobby.
Starter kit
Starter took off without any issues following their guidelines, although it took about a week for it to become strong enough to make good bread
