Great bread without the apprenticeship. You want to make fresh bread at home. You don't want to spend years learning baker's percentages, hydration, fermentation science, dough temperature, or how to know when your dough is actually ready. You shouldn't have to. Tell BreadIQ what you want to make and when you want it ready. BreadIQ does the math, builds the formula, calculates the fermentation timeline, and guides you through the bake, from the first measurement to the moment your bread comes out of the oven. ACTIVE BAKE: GPS FOR YOUR BAKE BreadIQ builds a complete workflow around your dough, flour, loaf format and fermentation method, then takes you through it one step at a time: mix, rest, fold, shape, proof, bake. Timers run for you, and notifications tell you when it's time to come back. Every step is timed around the ones before and after it, so you don't have to keep track. With Siri on iPhone, it's hands-free. Say "BreadIQ" and ask what's next, how much time is left, or when your bread will be ready, without stopping what you're doing or touching your phone. PREDICTIVE FERMENTATION MODEL™ Fermentation isn't a fixed timer. Temperature, yeast, hydration, flour, sweeteners and preferments all change how dough behaves. BreadIQ calculates those variables and builds a timeline around your actual dough in your actual kitchen. No fermentation charts. No more guessing if your bread is ready. BUILD WHAT YOU NEED, WHEN YOU WANT IT One baguette, a dozen dinner rolls or three pizza balls: BreadIQ scales the formula, yeast and timing to match. Tell it when you want your bread ready and it works backward, telling you when to mix, fold, shape, proof and bake. BreadIQ tells you exactly what time to get started so you don't have to guess. YOUR KITCHEN, NOT SOMEONE ELSE'S BreadIQ accounts for kitchen temperature, relative humidity, flour type, hydration, yeast, sweetener, preferment and dough temperature, so your timeline is calculated for your bake in your kitchen. Have a temperature and humidity sensor in Apple Home? BreadIQ can fill in your kitchen conditions and adjust your timeline when you open the app. SPEEDRUN™: WHEN YOU DON'T WANT TO WAIT SpeedRun™ shortens the fermentation window with controlled changes to temperature and yeast rate. Not a shortcut. A different formulation designed for urgency. FLOURS AND AUTOLYSE From bread flour to whole wheat, rye, spelt and einkorn, BreadIQ adjusts the formula and fermentation to the flour you're using. When an autolyse makes sense, it handles the timing for you. LIVE PROBE TRACKING Pair a Combustion Inc. Predictive Thermometer and BreadIQ tracks your dough's temperature as it ferments and refines its forecast. During the bake, it watches the internal temperature and tells you when your bread is done. BRING YOUR OWN RECIPES Import recipes from websites, photos of recipe cards, or your browser, and BreadIQ turns them into a formula it can scale and time. COST, NUTRITION AND YOUR LIBRARY See an estimated ingredient cost and USDA-based nutrition for every bake. Save your formulas to your library and export them as formatted spreadsheets. Your recipes stay yours. BUILT BY A PROFESSIONAL. DESIGNED FOR EVERYONE. BreadIQ was created by a Certified Executive Chef and CIA ProChef Level II with more than 20 years in professional kitchens. That experience is behind the system, but you don't need any of it to use the app. You bring the curiosity. BreadIQ handles the complexity. SUBSCRIPTIONS BreadIQ is free to start, with a 30-day trial of Premium features. Basic ($4.99/month or $49.99/year) and Premium ($9.99/month or $99.99/year) subscriptions unlock more features.
