The finest choice for self-reliant bakers, freeing you from having to buy store-bought yeast ever again!

A great starter is the KEY to mastering fermentation. Those who know bread know the importance a sourdough starter has to compel the dough to rise and possess great consistency. I created “Bread Pit” in order to help others begin their sourdough journey with a great foundation so they can build upon its care and get better with fermenting their bread. It's the same starter I use in all my YouTube videos. This starter features excellent dairy flavors and is very strong. 

You can use this starter to make bread, pizza, buns, baguettes and even brioche doughs.

Bread Pit is the most travelled and diverse sourdough starter in the world. The culture you receive has collected more wild yeast and bacteria in the following countries all across the world.

As of now they include:
- Argentina (Buenos Aires, most southern point of the world, Patagonia)
- Australia
- Bangkok
- Bali
- Canada
- Cook Islands (Aitutaki, Rarotonga)
- Denmark
- French Polynesia (Tahiti)
- Germany
- India (Delhi, Bangalore, Taj Mahal)
- Italy
- Kenya (Masai Mara, Nairobi)
- Mexico
- Mauritius
- New Zealand
- Portugal
- South Africa
- Tokyo
- Spain
- St. Vincent and the Grenadines
- USA (California, Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Florida, Hawaii)

Bread Pit has been dried and is ready for international shipping. The package includes three servings to reactivate the starter (see the last picture). It also contains detailed instructions on how to reactivate the starter. Once reactivated, it will be good for years, and you will never have to buy yeast again. By using Bread Pit you will start your sourdough journey with a powerful starter, without having to go through the process of nurturing your own. Once your Bread Pit is active you can share parts of it with friends and family and spread the love of bread-making.

Please note that the glas itself is not included - I recommend to either use a Ball mason jar or weck jar. A simple glas will do too, you can cover it with a plate.

Money back/replacement guarantee: If for some reason you are not able to reactivate Bread Pit I am happy to send you another starter and/or refund the purchase. Please reach out with your order number 😊.

Thank you for your support! Your purchase directly contributes to my journey of spreading the love for bread making, one loaf at a time.

Bread Pitt Lives!!

It's been a bit chilly here in the Mojave Desert so, it took some time for Bread Pitt to become active. I am happy to report that it is alive and well and I look forward to my first loaf.

Hard Time getting it going…UPDATE

I don’t know why but I had a really hard time getting it going. After I submitted my review, Hendrik contacted me and we discussed some of my problems. He sent me a new batch of started with very detailed instructions. I am currently getting my new started going and it is working really well! I haven’t baked with it yet because it is still getting all bubbly and happy. It will be ready tomorrow for sure! I just want to commend Hendrik on his commitment to having a happy customer. He went above and beyond both in communication and genuine interest in my situation. I highly recommend doing business with The Bread Code. Thanks again for really helping me out!
