Goldie by Sourhouse
Is your sourdough starter too cold, making it sluggish and throwing off your baking schedule? Finally, you can stop searching for the warmest spot in your home - like next to the router, on your heated floor, or in a terrarium - to place your starter.
With the Goldie by Sourhouse, your starter is conveniently displayed on your kitchen counter, and you can literally watch it rise. When Goldie is set to "Autowarming," it measures the ambient temperature in your kitchen and uses conduction to bring your starter to the ideal temperature. The heat transfer is energy-efficient, as the warming plate only heats when the temperature inside the starter glass is colder than the desired temperature range of 24° to 28° Celsius. Within this temperature range, both the lactic acid bacteria and the yeasts in your sourdough are most active. The result: a reliably active sourdough starter, leading to consistent baking performance despite temperature fluctuations in your kitchen.
And if it gets too hot? Goldie is equipped with three lights: Blue = too cold, golden yellow = just right, and red = too hot. When temperatures in your kitchen are too warm, you can place the included Cooling Puck from the freezer directly on your starter glass. Goldie will then regulate the temperature so that your starter doesn't get too cold.
You can use any type of jar for your sourdough as long as it fits under the glass dome. The specially developed Sourhouse starter jars are available separately. The USB cable is compatible with any USB plug.
Sourhouse is a new company from the USA. Founders Erik and Jenny have made it their mission to make baking easier for all home bakers. With the support of 1200 sourdough bakers from all over the world, the Goldie Sourdough Starter System was launched in 2022 as the first of its kind and has since been bringing sourdough starters to the ideal temperature in kitchens worldwide.
