What’s Inside the You Knead Sourdough Kit?

Great sourdough starts with great tools, great ingredients and the right support. At You Knead Sourdough, our kit isn’t just a box of gear. It’s a fully guided baking experience designed to set you up for success from day one.

Here’s exactly what you’ll find inside the box and how each item helps you bake better bread.

Premium Ingredients for the Best Bread

Every kit includes 2kg of high-protein bread flour, sourced from Flinders Ranges Premium Grain in South Australia.

  • ✅ High protein = strong gluten structure
  • ✅ Better rise, better chew, better crust
  • ✅ Enough for your first 3-4 loaves, plus ongoing starter feeds

This is the flour we use ourselves and it’s consistently rated one of the best for sourdough in the country.

The Heart of Sourdough – Your Starter

Your kit comes with a packet of dried sourdough starter flakes this is where the magic begins!

  • 🌱 These flakes contain wild yeast captured from our original 2018 starter
  • 🧪 Just follow the included guide to activate and grow your starter
  • 💡 Once it’s active, keep feeding it and it’ll live forever (yes, really!)

Our dried starter is resilient, reliable, and beginner-friendly.

Essential Tools for Success

We’ve handpicked the tools that make a real difference in your baking:

  • 🧺 25cm Oval Rattan Banneton
    Shapes your dough and creates that classic sourdough crust
  • 🌀 Danish Dough Whisk
    Mixes ingredients better than a spoon and reduces mess
  • 🔪 Bread Lame (Scoring Blade)
    Allows your loaf to expand in the oven and adds a beautiful artisan look
  • 🧼 Dough Scraper
    Makes handling wet, sticky dough much easier and keeps your bench clean

These aren’t gimmicks, they’re tools our own team uses every day.
