Built around real bake days
For bakers who need repeatable formulas, not fragile spreadsheets.
The Baker is designed for serious home bakers, sourdough bakers, pizza dough makers, cottage bakers, micro bakeries and professional bakers who need consistent dough math in the kitchen or bakery.
Control Fermentation
Calculate preferments, starter contribution, desired dough temperature and final dough temperature with less manual checking.
Run the Bake
Use guided baking and multiple timers to keep fermentation, folds, proofing and baking on schedule.
Work Offline
Use calculators, timers, local recipes and settings when the kitchen connection is unreliable.
Workflow tools
Built for the Bake
Professional tools mapped to a baker’s actual process.
Precision Hydration
Baker’s Percentage and dough hydration, including starter contribution. Understand and adjust your dough with precise flour and water calculations.
Advanced Baking Calculators
Use DDT and FDT calculators, the Sourdough Starter Feeding Calculator, and the Pre-Ferments Helper to calculate every stage with confidence.
Timers & Guided Baking
Run multiple timers, follow guided baking stages, and keep fermentation, folds, proofing, and baking on schedule.
Recipe Creation & Import
Create recipes, scale formulas, and import recipes from the web for home baking or larger production batches.
Sourdough fermentation workflow
Keep Every Stage of the Bake Moving
The Baker combines named, concurrent timers with guided baking tools so you can track bulk fermentation, stretch and folds, proofing, and baking from one offline-capable workflow.
1. Start the Bulk Fermentation Clock
Begin a named timer after mixing, then add separate reminders for coil folds or stretch-and-fold sets without losing sight of the full bulk-fermentation window.
2. Check the Dough, Not Only the Time
Use the timer as a reference while you assess visible rise, bubbles, texture, elasticity, aroma, and dough strength. Fermentation conditions vary, so the dough’s signals still guide the decision.
3. Track Proofing and Baking Separately
Run dedicated proofing and baking timers alongside other active doughs or loaves. Clear labels help keep overlapping stages organized during a busy bake day.
4. Repeat the Workflow Offline
Keep calculators, local recipes, settings, and timers available when your kitchen connection is unreliable. Save the formula and repeat the process on the next bake.
