Sourdough Timer Pro vs Loafy

NEW: FULL BAKE PLANNER Plan the whole bake, from feeding your starter to taking the bread out of the oven. • 14 tested recipes: country loaf, challah, pitas, pizza, focaccia and more, with every ingredient in grams for the amount you choose • Tell the app when you want the bread ready and it calculates when each step starts. You can also plan days ahead, starting from the starter feed • A reminder for every step, including each fold, even when the app is closed • Choose how you bake: Dutch oven, baking stone or steel with steam, or a loaf tin. Times and temperatures adapt to your method • Oven timers: tap "I put it in the oven" and the app counts down every stage (lid off, drying and more). Every timer is editable • Guided path to build a sourdough starter from scratch, with daily reminders • In-app feedback form • English and Hebrew • No ads STARTER CALCULATOR Sourdough Timer Pro computes the exact feeding schedule for your sourdough starter, working backward from your target ready time to give you a precise feed time and gram-level recipe. HOW IT WORKS Enter six parameters: target ready time, quantity of starter needed (grams), desired hydration percentage, flour type, starter activity level (%), and ambient temperature (°C or °F). The app applies a fermentation kinetics model that factors temperature-dependent metabolic rates of lactic acid bacteria and wild yeast to calculate when your starter will hit peak activity. OUTPUT — YOUR FEEDING PLAN • Feed time: the exact moment to feed so your starter peaks on schedule • Starter / flour / water quantities in grams • Feed ratio (e.g., 1:9.8:9.8) • Estimated peak pH • Predicted flavor profile (mild, balanced, tangy, complex) • Recommended bread types suited to the resulting starter profile • Fermentation timeline chart with 80% activity window marked Set process alarms directly from the results screen to get notified at feed time and at peak. DESIGNED FOR PRECISION Temperature has a nonlinear effect on fermentation speed. A 5°C difference between summer and winter kitchens can shift peak time by 2–4 hours. Sourdough Timer Pro accounts for this so your timing stays consistent regardless of ambient conditions. Supports both Celsius and Fahrenheit. Works across all flour types including whole wheat, rye, spelt, and einkorn. Starter activity input lets you calibrate for your specific culture's behavior. PROFESSIONAL & HOME BAKERS Built for bakers who want repeatability and data-driven control over their sourdough process. Used by professional bakery instructors for workshop demonstrations and planning. SUBSCRIPTION Sourdough Timer Pro requires an auto-renewable subscription (monthly or annual).

Bake better sourdough, from starter to crumb. Free, no ads, from the author of The Sourdough Framework. Log every bake, follow a guided bake step by step, and get answers from Hendrik's book. KEEP A REAL BAKE JOURNAL Log a bake in three taps: what you baked, when, and how it went. Hydration, salt, starter, bulk time and temperature, how you proofed it, how you baked it. Add photos. Every loaf stays searchable, so the one that worked in March is still there in November. SEE WHAT ACTUALLY WORKS Loafy reads your own bakes back to you: the hydration your best loaves share, how your ratings move as you change one thing at a time, how long your streak is. Not generic advice. Yours. ASK THE BOOK, NOT THE INTERNET Ask Loafy answers from The Sourdough Framework rather than from whatever a search engine turns up. Ask about a specific bake and it reads that bake's numbers before it answers. Every answer points at the chapter it came from. CHECK YOUR CRUMB Photograph the cut loaf and Ask Loafy reads the crumb on The Bread Code's crumb map: underfermented, overfermented, underbaked, or just right. Tell it which bake it was and the answer knows that bake's numbers. WATCH THE PART YOU NEED The Bread Code's videos play inside the guides and start at the moment the step needs, like the shaping part when you shape. Tell Loafy what went wrong with a bake and it shows the part that fixes it. BAKER'S MATH, DONE FOR YOU Bread and pizza calculators that work in baker's percentages. Scale a recipe to the flour you have, or to the number of loaves you want. A dough optimizer that tares your own bowls and bannetons so you can weigh dough without doing arithmetic. GUIDED BAKES Step-by-step journeys for making a starter, reviving one, and baking your first real sourdough loaf. Timers that keep running when you put the phone down. YOUR STARTERS Give them names and birthdays. Keep notes on how they behave. Share a starter's passport with whoever you gave some to. Everything syncs to your free Loafy account, so your journal follows you between devices.
