You've Seen the Beautiful Loaves. You've Saved the Pinterest Pins. But...

Let me guess. You want that first crackle, that proud little ear, that “I made this” moment.

Here’s the part no one says out loud:

  • Starting from scratch can take weeks.
  • Daily feedings feel like a part-time job.
  • “Is that mold?” becomes a nightly Google.


Half the attempts… don’t make it.

The quiet truth? You don’t have to start from scratch.

Begin with a heritage culture that wakes up fast, rises reliably, and lets you bake real bread – sooner.

What Happens When You Get This Right

See for yourself what our happy community of bakers have to say.

Three failed attempts. I almost gave up. This one worked exactly like the instructions said. My first loaf had an actual ear. I cried. I couldn't believe it.

My kids think baking with 288-year-old yeast is the coolest thing ever. During one baking sesh, we named our starter 'Grandma Edna.'

Was spending $12 per loaf at the bakery. Saved over $400 by baking my own. And mine's better.

I forgot to feed it for two weeks. It came right back to life. This is the starter for people who don't have their lives together.

Your Rise Is Certain, But Supply Isn’t

We stand behind every jar: if it doesn’t activate in 48 hours, we’ll replace it at no cost. But since each starter takes ~72 hours to finish, only limited spots are released monthly. When this current batch runs out, you’ll have to wait for the restock – so act before the counter hits zero.

Frequently Asked Questions

Nope. If you can stir water into flour, you can do this. Our instructions assume zero experience and, if you need any additional help, reach out and let’s see what we can do.

All-purpose or bread flour works great to start. We include simple ratios and a schedule so you don’t overthink it.

Our starters lived through wars, migrations, famines, and everything else that happened for the past few centuries. It can survive your kitchen. If something goes wrong, let us know and we’ll send another packet free.

About 15 minutes of actual work spread across 3 days. Most of the time is waiting.

There isn’t one. We hope you love it so much you try our other heritage starters someday. That’s it.
