Useful extras to make baking easier and help you get more from every loaf.

Not all gluten-free sourdough starters behave the same.

Our Easy Rise Gluten Free Starter has been developed for bakers who want clearer signs that their starter is active and ready to bake. Different to our organic brown rice flour starter, this culture is maintained on a specially selected gluten-free flour blend that behaves much more like traditional grain flour during fermentation (ingredients below).

The result? A starter that develops a much more noticeable rise after feeding, making it far easier to tell when it's reached its peak.

Brown rice flour simply doesn't have the same properties that trap the gases produced during fermentation, so it often bubbles without showing a significant increase in volume. Our Easy Rise blend has been crafted to better support gas retention, giving you the visual cues that bakers rely on with traditional wheat-based starters.

If you've ever found yourself wondering, "Has my starter actually risen enough?" this is the starter for you.

Ingredients: WHOLE SEED & TUBER (NON-GMO Aust. white maize, cassava, teff, linseed, psyllium), potato starch, NON-GMO maize starch, tapioca starch, rice flour, bamboo shoot fibre, calcium carbonate.

Why you'll love it

How is it different from your Organic Gluten Free Starter?

Both starters produce fantastic gluten-free sourdough and are maintained using gluten-free ingredients.

Our Organic Gluten Free Starter is fed with organic brown rice flour, making it the perfect choice for those who prioritise organic ingredients. However, brown rice flour naturally produces a starter that doesn't typically rise as dramatically, even when it is healthy and active.

Our Easy Rise Gluten Free Starter is maintained on a specially selected coeliac-safe gluten-free flour blend designed to behave more like traditional bread flour. It traps more of the carbon dioxide produced during fermentation, resulting in a much more noticeable rise after feeding. This makes it easier to judge exactly when your starter is at its peak and ready to bake.

If you're new to gluten-free sourdough, or you'd simply like a starter that gives you clearer visual feedback, the Easy Rise Starter is an excellent choice.

Perfect for: First-time gluten-free sourdough bakers, visual learners, and anyone who wants a gluten-free starter that's easier to monitor between feeds.

I found the dehydrated starter very easy to activate with the simple directions and videos on the website. I'm now on day 2 of maintaining my starter. I might even try storing it in the fridge for easier maintenance like the website says. As a beginner I'm yet to bake a loaf, because I want to understand all the different ratios for feeding/maintaining first.

The sourdough starter is very strong. I had little success with the dehydrated flakes I bought elsewhere at the beginning of my bread making but this live starter has meant success every loaf. Couldn't be happier.

I’m very new to making sourdough my first loaf turns out was under fermented however my second and third loaves turned out perfectly I feel I’m still learning my house is cold due to winter so I’m still learning bulk fermentation but I am looking at investing in a fermentation box the one I purchased had a faulty mat my own fault for buying off Temu. I can’t recommend this starter enough to any new baker to the sourdough journey I’ve made 4 successful foccacias as well

I have purchased this starter several times and it has always been great quality. The bread has always turned out amazing!

Received my starter and watched the videos which were v helpful. It’s cold here so my starter took a while so I went to bed a bit deflated. Woke in the morning to doubled starter which got better as the day went on. By afternoon I decided to start making my first loaf and refrigerate overnight. Baked in the morning and it was beautiful! My very first sourdough and I was so proud of it. Next one will be bigger and better. Thank you 🙏

I’m so happy I put my pride aside and bought this starter. You can tell it’s strong and smells lovely. I baked 5 loaves in the first week with it. Would highly recommend. If you’re dreaming of baking sourdough do yourself a favour and skip the highs and lows of building one yourself, this is ready to go and so easy to maintain. It’s doubling within 4-5 hours.

The sourdough starter flakes I bought have activated into a great, strong starter. It was super easy to activate, and has made some fantastic bread so far.

My starter's name is Baby Jane Dough, and has been fantastically easy to deal with and responsive to feeds.

What I really appreciate is the information for activation, feeding, and baking I found on the website... it's made baking fun.

I also have a pack of rye sourdough starter flakes, but haven't yet activated it... I'm expecting it to be as easy as the first one.

Definitely recommend!

Good quality starter. It surely makes the difference with the success of making sourdough. I have frozen some and dried some to ensure I never loose this!

The starter arrived quite quickly and in excellent condition. After feeding it, I baked the first sourdough rye/spelt bread the next day and it came up wonderfully. I can highly recommend the live rye starter.
