Essential Tools! Because what is a craft without its tools?
We try to make everything as approachable as possible, so when considering a list of essentials we try to suggest alternatives as well.
Something we remind ourselves of a lot is that this type of bread was made for thousands of years with just a bowl and the bakers hands, so truly the only two things you need are whatever’s at the end of your arms.
BUT, if you want to get yourself as set up as possible (on a budget!) then this is a great list to check out.
One tool we didn’t mention on the list was SOURJOE itself! We’re working on a whole new edition of it, so be sure to sign up for our newsletter where you can get the latest updates and sneak peaks! Link in our bio 😘

Here we outline the method for how we keep our heads on straight. It’s called the Baker’s Process 👨‍🍳
If making sourdough was a book, every single recipe and type of bread would be told in these same 7 chapters. Their arrangement doesn’t change, but the size of each chapter will vary between recipes. This process is a great way to stay on track whether you’re just starting out, doing multiple projects at once, or creating your own recipe. All things you can do on the SOURJOE app!
We are far from the first to use something like this, but this is the one that works for us the best.

Does your sourdough act differently depending on the season? Changes in ambient temperature and humidity dramatically affect (effect?) the condition of the dough. It is a living thing, after all. Head on over to our website to read our new post about working with your environment, not against it! Link in the bio
