About
CrumbKeeper predicts your sourdough from YOUR jar, in YOUR kitchen.
Every sourdough app has a feeding log and a timer. CrumbKeeper has a calibration ladder. It starts with a published temperature model, switches to your jar's own median once you've logged three peaks, and once you've logged four peaks at different room temperatures it fits YOUR STARTER'S OWN TEMPERATURE-RESPONSE CURVE, a fingerprint of your jar. From then on, every prediction follows your thermostat: a warm afternoon and a cold snap get different answers, computed from your own history. Every predicted time on the Forecast board says which rung it came from. Always a window, never a promise.
THE FORECAST BOARD
Open the app to one screen that answers the only questions that matter: when does my starter peak, when does bulk finish, when does bread actually come out of the oven. Drag the kitchen-temperature slider and every window re-solves.
IT WATCHES YOUR BULK AND ARGUES WITH YOUR PLAN
Type two aliquot-jar heights and CrumbKeeper projects your bulk's finish from your dough's own measured rate. If that projection disagrees with your bake-day plan by more than 15 minutes, Bake Day says so ("your dough disagrees with the plan") and one tap re-solves the rest of the day around the dough. The dough is always right.
THE STARTER FINGERPRINT
Swipe a feed "Peaked now" and CrumbKeeper pairs it with the kitchen temperature you logged. Four peaks across a few degrees and your jar gets its own fitted curve, drawn point by point on its detail screen. The curve comes from your own logged peaks, not from a generic table.
BAKE DAY, BACKWARD THEN FORWARD
"Bread out of the oven at 6 PM Saturday" plans the whole day backward (levain, autolyse, mix, bulk, preshape, bench rest, shape, retard, bake), then runs it forward with notifications, and re-plans in one tap when reality drifts.
AND THE REST
• 14-day from-scratch starter program that explains the scary days
• Feeding reminders, peak alerts and a next-feed widget
• Baker's math: dough vs true hydration, multi-flour blends, stiff levains
• Fix My Loaf triage that reads your own numbers, not a FAQ
• Journal with crumb photos and bake-over-bake deltas
• CSV export, full backup, and a converter
