Sourdough Starter Culture – Fast-Activating Natural Wild Yeast for Homemade Bread – Dehydrated Sourdough Starter for Baking Artisan Loaves, Easy to Use & Perfect for Beginners

I gotta give it to them, their customer service is great. But it’s been over 12 days since i started the process and still dont have an active starter. I really have followed all the recommendations to the tea but still no luck. Im upset i paid so much money for nothing. Definitely not fast activating as they say.

This worked well. It produced a strong and active starter in just a few of days. I followed the instructions with a little twist - I used 1/2 bread flour and 1/2 rye flour to ensure it had a bit more energy (the US takes away a lot of the nutrients from wheat flour for some reason). To get the starter established, I used the ratios suggested in the instructions, and within 3 days I had a strong active starter. I did a daily maintenance for two additional days just to be sure that it was established before using. For maintenance/feeding, I shifted away from the 1:1:1 ratio suggested in the instructions to a 1:2:2 ratio using 25 g starter, 50g water, 50g of flour mix (25g wheat flour+25g rye flour) for the weekly feeding and after use recovery and it is thriving. The resulting bread was well-formed with a good crumb, nice crust and a mild sourdough flavor.

Honestly very impressed I did not expect it to rise day 3 I thought it would take a couple more days but not only rose but it doubled! I tried the breadtopia one as I used that before to make a 'quick' starter but this time around it failed. Even with the breadtopia one it did not rise or smell correctly for a couple days. Will try to not forget about the starter in the fridge this time but if I do I know which one I am trying first! Also note I used warm water idk if I call it hot or Luke warm to dissolve stuff since people said it is hard to dissolve. And I just kept it by my rice cooker as it was keeping left over rice warm at a constant 25-26 which probably helped. Did do the same thing for the other brand as well but did not take off and buttery bacteria took over UPDATE: it still is good but the smell like a young starter like acetone so can't use right away. But it doubles very quickly so probably still need a couple days before baking

I made sourdough starter a dozen time and the last time it didn't work for some reason (i bet its my flour that just doesn't have the good bacteria or something in it), so i tried this and im impressed. It's been 2 days and tomorrow i am pretty sure it will be ready. If you don't wanna wait 2-4 weeks for a starter, take this It's worth it

I was skeptical to buy a starter online but with all the good reviews I had to try it. I called the customer care and the actual owner answered - the starter is established/ fed daily for over 7 years . It took a few days to rehydrate and have it ready to bake but it's amazing and I definitely recommend !! Bought and tried in Canada .

I followed the instructions but was having problems with the sourdough starter rising. It’s bubbly and active, just not rising. I emailed the company and the OWNER got back to me almost immediately. She was kind, helpful, and patient. She ended up calling me to troubleshoot and I’m so impressed with the customer service I experienced with KneadAce. The starter is great. The problem was user error. Great product (that is working now,) and AMAZING customer service. Highly recommend supporting this brand.
