I wrote Sourdough for the Rest of Us because one member asked me a question.
My answer got too long for a comment. Then too long for a post. Then it became a blog article, then a little handbook, and eventually this book. So I want to give it to you. It’s not about the “right” way to make sourdough. It’s the way I’ve learned to understand it, teach it, troubleshoot it, and make the whole process a little less intimidating. Use it. Keep it somewhere you can find it later. Come back when your starter is acting strange, your fermentation has you second-guessing yourself, or you just need somebody to explain why the dough is doing what it’s doing. And for those of you who still like the feeling of turning a page, I made it into a flipbook too.

Module 2.2 is officially public. 🔓
I just flipped this one from unlisted to public because too many of you keep asking the same question in different words: “Can I actually sell this?” If you’ve got a great loaf and zero idea whether your state lets you sell it out of your home kitchen, this is the video. We walk through cottage food law, what “legal to sell” actually means where you live, and why guessing here is the fastest way to get shut down before you ever get started. This one’s foundational. If you’re still in the “is this even allowed” stage, watch it before you spend another dollar on packaging or a market booth fee. Drop your state in the comments. Some of you are dealing with wildly different rules and hearing what your neighbors are navigating helps everybody. Not sure if you’re ready to sell yet? Take the free 2-minute quiz and find out exactly where you stand: https://skoo.ly/landing-page-w-quiz Want the full 9-module path plus live support from bakers doing this right now?

Pricing Your Hourly Labor | You don’t work for free
Are You Baking for Free? How to Price Your Labor Into Every Loaf https://youtu.be/O4pN5ozw0L4 Here’s the number most home bakers leave out of the price. Their own time. You count the flour. You count the bag and the label. Then you hand over a loaf that took 4 hours across 2 days and call whatever’s left profit. That’s not profit. That’s your wage, and you just gave it away for free. This lesson walks you through putting your hours on the books. Not the romantic version where baking is a joy so it doesn’t count. The real version, where you write down every stage: mixing, shaping, baking, cooling, packaging, loading the car, standing at the table, and cleaning up after. Then you pay yourself a rate for all of it. We use $18 an hour in this course. Not because the number is magic, but because it’s honest for skilled work. The Labor Calculator worksheet goes with this lesson. Do one product. Just one. Most people are surprised, and a few get real quiet. Watch it, run your numbers, then drop your hourly total in the comments. I want to see them. Perfection is not required. Progress is. Henry⭐️🔥 Please like andsubscribe while you’re there.
Your starter isn't dead. She's dramatic. There's a difference.
Most people quit sourdough on day three. That's the day it smells like old apples or gym socks, a dark liquid shows up on top, and everybody assumes they've killed it. You haven't. That's the wild bacteria fighting it out, and it's supposed to happen. In this one I walk you through the whole seven day build, what to expect each day, and how to read what your starter is telling you instead of guessing. What we cover: The temperature range that makes a starter predictable The daily feeding cycle and why you bake near the peak, not after the crash Days one through seven, one at a time, including the swamp monster phase The Diva Translator: healthy, hungry, over ripe, and the one situation where you actually do start over Emergency CPR for a starter you neglected The float test on day seven tells you when she's ready. And if she isn't ready on day seven, that's normal too. Read the culture, not the calendar. https://youtu.be/s4QZ4Iiip5M
