The Sourdough Framework

The sourdough framework is an open-source book dedicated to helping you to make the best possible sourdough bread at home.

Rather than providing recipes this book intends to provide a framework that enables you to bake bread in your respective environment. Every flour, every sourdough, and every home setup is different. This makes following recipes without background information so hard and a fail-prone endeavor. This book intends to close that gap.

Background

4 years after launching the repositories the-bread-code and pizza-dough I created this project to merge the knowledge together. This project intends to go one step deeper into the workings of natural fermentation. At the same time as many scientific references as possible are provided.

I believe that the knowledge this book provides is essential to everyone. That's why I decided to open source my knowledge hoping that it will reach more people all over the world without budget constraints.

If you would like to contribute with a small donation you can do so via my ko-fi page. This will help me to cover costs related to running the-bread-code and allow me to work more updates for this book.
