Autolyse vs Crumb

Your starter doesn't care about 12-hour rules. It cares about temperature. Autolyse is a sourdough tracker that actually gets that — built around how real home bakers actually bake. Track your starter, predict peak with temperature-aware timing, run your bake stage-by-stage, and keep a journal worth re-reading next Sunday. No subscriptions. No ads. No account. No tracking. WHAT AUTOLYSE DOES Peak prediction that understands your kitchen Log the ambient temperature when you feed, and Autolyse tells you a realistic peak window, not a generic six hours. A real bake journal Stage-by-stage timing for same-day and overnight schedules, crumb photos, star ratings, and the notes you'll actually read next time. Baker's math, solved Dial in dough weight, hydration, levain, and salt percentages. Save go-to formulas. Scale cleanly. Multiple starters, named Doughlores, Breadley, the rye experiment. Each with their own flour blend and feeding schedule. Multi-component flour blends Model 80/20 bread flour and whole wheat, or any other blend you actually mix. Hydration gets calculated correctly. Your data, your device Everything stays on your phone. Syncs across your Apple devices via iCloud. Nothing sent to any server of mine, because there are no servers of mine.
