Easy Rise Gluten Free Sourdough Starter

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.

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.
