I bought this as a gift 🎁 for a friend as I use to work in a bakery for years back in my teens and made sourdough and now I think this is igniting my old inner baker again. Excellent starter kit and more than enough instructions that comes with it.
All Happy here.
Fantastic bread knife, no effort required when cutting sourdough
Beautiful flour. Makes excellent loaves
Makes excellent loaves every time
Great products at reasonable prices. Delivery was really speedy. The bread produced was delicious! Highly recommend
.
it took a bit of getting used to but now it's great
Starter arrived with plenty of instructions and a video link. Have made 2 excellent loaves so far and look forward to making many more.
Starter was fine. Your instructions i found difficult to understand as a beginner. The time schedules were confusing. Proofing times particularly seemed far too long.
High quality well presented.
i ordered the paid of round and oval silicone bread slings. it is actually the oval one that i use, as i prefer a long, rather than a round, loaf. however, that doesn't mean i will never use the round one.
so much easier to get my dough into the cloche - bearing in mind that it is extremely hot. this helps me manoeuvre the dough into the space without risking my fingers. also makes it easy to remove. good quality sling, i have seen others, but they don't look as well made. very pleased with purchase.
Quick delivery 🚚 and loads off advise enclosed will use again and my bread was my first so nice to have that helping hand
best starter ever.
I have tried making my own starter - it seemed ok, I have bought starter before, nothing compares to this one. It makes fantastic dough, and my efforts have gone from d- to a+
starter and oval cloche.
having had difficulties with both starter and baking - I have the world's worst oven (I rent, so can't change), I was about to give up, but thought I would give these a go. The starter is the best I have ever tried, and have been making mine for over a year, and also bought ready starter - nothing compares to this one. I have made sourdough pizza with it - amazing crust, even in a substandard oven. Today I made my first loaf, using the cloche - lovely crust, soft crumb, wonderful flavour. Before, it was difficult to work out what I was doing right, wrong, or so-so. Now I can evaluate my loaf properly, and although it could do with a few minor tweaks, it is by far the best sourdough loaf I have made - I could sell it, it's that good, in fact, it's better than any sourdough loaf I have ever bought (even from so-called artisan, award-winning bakers). Really happy with my purchases, and also The Sourdough Labs have been super helpful during the ordering process. Couldn't be bettered.
great starter! was able to activate it and use it right away with great results.
