Sourdough Starter Kit - 38oz with Cookbook, Measuring Cup, Spatula, Wide Mouth Jar Cover, Thermometer, Date Marked Feeding Band, Glass Jar for Baker, Bread Baking Supplies

I have stored my sourdough starter in plastic and wanted to change to a glass container. My ball jars are either too small for the volume of the starter/growth or have a curved top so they are harder to clean well. I bought one of these amazing Ayerphalo glass starter jars and after using it briefly, bought two more (Yes, I have three different starters). They are very easy to use, store, clean, and they look pretty on my shelf when my starter is active. The little recipe book is good. I had difficulty with one recipe and contacted by email customer support; surprisingly I had a good response within hours. I really like the red rubber cap for longer storage in my refrigerator, and the cloth cap works great when my starter is active. The thick rubber band helps me know the rise of the starter. The temperature sticker has been helpful for me to find a good, warm place to keep the active starter. All of the components that come with this kit are helpful. All are good quality. I highly recommend this company and product. My only concern is that the jars are a bit tall so they don’t fit on my to shelf in the refrigerator; not a big problem, the three jars are in a lower shelf. I don’t think a more shallow jar would work as well, so I have just rearranged my shelves.

I love this, it's so convenient. The size is just right, the straight walls are so convenient, and the cotton and silicone lids work as intended and hold on well while still being easy to put on and off.It's holding up great, and all the extra included items are great too, especially the stir stick, because it has a slight bend like a long thin spoon which is convenient to use and much better than the stir stick spatula I had already that is straight flat.The handle is unobtrusive and works well, overall I seriously love this. I bought a different set for a 2nd sourdough version I'm starting and that package and glass container isn't anywhere near as nice and convenient as this is. This feels solid and sturdy without being clunky or heavy to use. I love that the measurement is written on the side of the glass too, that's so convenient.Incidentally, I'm using the Bakerita's gluten free sourdough starter recipe and gf bread recipes, and it worked fantastic on the first try! What a dream!!

I made this purchase after I spent two weeks trying to cultivate a starter in a mason jar, only for it to grow mold and have to throw the whole thing out. It was my first time and I did not know how important the type of jar you use really was and the experience of having to clean it was nearly impossible due to the ridges. Leftover starter would crust on the edges and harbor bad bacteria to grow. Watching everyone online make it look super easy made me feel very discouraged and I almost wanted to give up and just say this wasn’t for me. I’ll just go buy some bread.BUT one night I was late night scrolling and saw this starter kit. The price and the way the jar seemed so much better for cleaning was alone enough for me to purchase. And when it arrived, I was pleasantly surprised to see that it came with so much more! The band with the time tracking is sooo helpful, as before I was just tracking times on my notes app. The stickers were nice and it came with a few so if they wash off the glass or you do a new starter you have plenty. The little helpful guide book it comes with is so cute and amazing, I can’t believe I revived all this for under $20.Above all, the cloth top was a game changer! In a week after following the instructions, my starter was bubbling and active. I truly believe this is a great purchase to help beginners. It would also be a fun gift for someone. The container is wide enough to fit your whole hand it to clean and scrape the sides. I would transfer the starter out and do a deep clean after a few days just so I wouldn’t make my first mistake of letting bad bacteria grow. Soaking it in warm water for at least a hour before scraping really helps. It was also really easy to store in the fridge with the rubber lid after I wanted to bake. I did make my first loaf, but due to my own fault I didn’t let it rise for long enough, and it came out too gummy inside. I think with a bit more practice, I will definitely have a yummy sourdough loaf!

This kit is wonderful. I love the size of the jar and that the kit comes with a variety of helpful items, measuring cup, a long silicone stirrer, an instruction guide, which I needed as it was my first time attempting sourdough bread, and a few other goodies. I'm glad that I made this purchase.

This kit is perfect, and has everything needed for creating your own sourdough starter. Inside is a link to website with baking note sheets and other journal-like information to download. Glass jar is tempered, and sturdy. The spatula is a game changer-worth the money, and highly recommend if you are interested in sourdough baking.

This is a wonderful product, and I liked it so well that a bought another one! First everything you need to begin the sourdough starter is included. The recipe book has lots of great information in it. Me and my husband really like the Cheez It recipe! I followed the directions in the book and my starter was beautiful! My bread came out really well too! My recommendation is to watch videos and join a sourdough group. They were extremely helpful for my first time working with sourdough! Cindy

The media could not be loaded. This sourdough set is incredible, very highly recommend this product and the seller.Safe glass, lead free, easy to boil even with thermometer sticker on and step by step instructions.Also, the spatula included is better than any others due to its perfect curvature for scraping down jars and bowls. Love it!*Bakers Tip - if you're following the instructions, for the starter discard you don't have to waste and throw away, dry it out for infinite storage, and bring it back with some water and flour, or use in a discard recipe - it tastes amazing and works for so many things**
