Why these tools
Shape. Proof. Score. Bake.
A great loaf needs four things: a way to mix stiff dough, a way to build tension, a basket to hold the shape while it rises, and a sharp blade to tell it where to open. Our First Loaf Kit covers all four in one box.
- Mix: the Danish whisk cuts through dough without clogging.
- Shape: a dough scraper divides and builds surface tension.
- Proof: the rattan banneton holds the shape overnight.
- Score: the lame gives you a clean cut and a tall ear.
Questions, answered
How long does shipping take?
Most orders arrive in 7–12 business days. You'll get tracking by email as soon as your order ships.
Do I need all of this to bake sourdough?
No. A bowl and an oven will get you a loaf. These tools make it more consistent and easier to shape and score, especially your first ten loaves.
