Know when your sourdough starter is ready to bake. BakeReady is a simple sourdough starter tracker built for home bakers who want less guessing and more confidence. Log feedings, track starter activity, estimate readiness, and see when your starter may be near its peak window — all in one easy-to-use app. Whether you are building your first starter or maintaining an active one, BakeReady helps you understand what is happening inside the jar. Track every feeding Record each feeding with the details that matter — time, ratio, room temperature, flour type, hydration, rise level, and bubble activity. Your feeding history helps BakeReady estimate how your starter is progressing and when it may need attention. Readiness Score See a simple readiness score based on your latest feeding, rise, bubbles, and starter activity. Get a clearer signal before you bake, with simple status updates like hungry, rising, near peak, ready to bake, or past peak. Peak Window Estimate Timing is one of the hardest parts of sourdough baking. BakeReady helps estimate your starter’s peak window, so you can better plan when to mix dough, build levain, or refresh your starter. Feeding Reminders Set your feeding routine and keep your starter on track. BakeReady helps you know when the next feed is coming, when a feed is overdue, and when your starter may need refreshing. Manage multiple starters Track more than one starter with separate profiles for different routines, ratios, and storage conditions. Perfect for a daily room temperature starter, a backup fridge starter, rye starter, whole wheat starter, or a new starter you are still developing. Built for home bakers BakeReady is designed to feel calm, warm, and simple — not like a spreadsheet. It gives you the key signals you need, without overcomplicating your baking routine. --- Key Features - Sourdough starter feeding log - Readiness score - Peak window estimate - Feeding reminders - Multiple starter profiles - Rise and bubble tracking - Beginner-friendly design --- BakeReady provides estimates based on your inputs and starter history. Sourdough activity can vary depending on temperature, flour, hydration, starter strength, and environment. Always use your own judgment before baking.
