Read Your Dough

Free virtual sourdough seminar — logic from starter to first loaf, then a short DoughPilot walkthrough.

Taught by Gerard, a Sharon home baker who loves helping people succeed at sourdough — not just collect recipes.

When & how to join

Friday, June 26, 2026 · 2:00–3:30 PM EDT

Online livestream
Virtual session — we'll email the join link before we start (platform TBD; likely Microsoft Teams or similar).

You'll learn

How to read starter strength (not just bubbles)
After the 10-day build: discard, fridge, revive
When bulk is done: rise, feel, and temperature
Final proof signals (shape, jiggle — not only the clock)
What flat, gummy, or tunnel crumb usually means
Short app walkthrough for home (free tier + optional paid plans)

We won't

Live baking or shaping demo
Recipe worship or fixed hour counts
Photo-only “AI scores” without rise % and time

You bake at home. This talk teaches what to look for — DoughPilot is optional guidance at the counter.

About the app (honest tiers)

The seminar is free. DoughPilot is free to start: 10-day starter build, first-loaf guide, and limited monthly Ask / diagnose / starter tests — no credit card to sign up. Optional paid plans ($4.99–7.99/mo) add a guided bake schedule and desk tools. Nothing is hidden on the site.
