The Sourdough Home Plus maintains your starter at an exact, consistent temperature so you can reduce feedings, minimize discard, and bake on your own schedule. It eliminates unpredictable kitchen temperature swings, simplifies daily maintenance, and gives you total flexibility.
No! By lowering the temperature (such as setting it between 5°C and 15°C), you can slow down fermentation and extend feedings to every 2, 3, or even 5 days, eliminating rigid daily routines and wasted flour.
The Sourdough Home Plus both heats and cools, meaning it can hold temperatures below room temperature to slow fermentation; it is also compact and specifically designed for starter jars up to 1 liter. The Folding Proofer only heats and is larger, designed for bulk dough fermentation and proofing loaves.
Standard refrigerators are usually too cold (around 3°C–4°C), which often puts starters into a dormant state that can weaken yeast health and requires multiple feedings to revive. The Sourdough Home Plus keeps your culture cool yet active and healthy, ready to bake whenever you are.
The unit features integrated WiFi and Bluetooth. Simply download and pair with the Smart Life app to monitor current status, change target temperatures, and turn power or interior lighting on and off from anywhere.
The interior chamber fits jars up to 1 liter (1 quart). It works seamlessly with standard glass canning jars such as Weck, Ball, and the Brod and Taylor Sourdough Starter Jar.
Precise heating and cooling with smart app control for effortless sourdough starter care!
Regardless of season or time of day, kitchen temperature shifts make sourdough starter maintenance challenging. The Brod and Taylor Sourdough Home Plus provides constant thermal stability from 5°C to 50°C, combined with smart WiFi and Bluetooth remote control, giving you complete flexibility to care for your starter on your own terms.
Equipped with wireless connectivity to adjust target temperatures, toggle power, and monitor settings remotely via the Smart Life app from anywhere.
Features heating and cooling modes to hold any setting from 5°C to 50°C, protecting your starter culture from ambient room temperature fluctuations.
An integrated viewing window and internal LED light allow you to check your starter's rise and bubbles at a glance without opening the door.
Includes a removable, dishwasher-safe drip tray designed to catch unexpected overflow, keeping your counter clean and maintenance simple.
By keeping your starter cool when not in use, fermentation is slowed, extending feeding intervals to several days and significantly reducing discarded starter.
The space-saving exterior fits neatly on any counter while providing ample internal clearance to hold standard starter jars up to 1 liter (1 quart).
