The Cozy Sourdough Start: A Beginner's Sourdough Starter & First Loaf Guide

$5.99

Flour, water, and a little patience.

The Cozy Sourdough Start is a beginner's PDF workbook that walks you through one simple path: build a flour-and-water starter, learn its rhythm, then bake your first plain sourdough loaf. One starter method, one loaf, and clear checkpoints so you always know what to look for next.

What's included

  • A kitchen kit list and the sourdough words you'll need

  • Day-by-day starter creation, feeding ratios, and readiness cues

  • Meet Big Birtha, our family starter, and name your own

  • An example baking timeline and a plan-backward-from-dinner schedule

  • One overnight-proof loaf: mixing, folds, shaping, scoring, baking, and cooling

  • Troubleshooting for both your starter and your bread

  • Printable feeding logs, bake records, and a quick reference page

Who it's for

Complete beginners, or anyone who has tried sourdough before and felt lost in conflicting advice. The guide uses observations rather than rigid deadlines, so it works in your kitchen at your pace.
