Not gonna lie, I almost didn't buy this Brod & Taylor Sourdough Home baker. $149 felt steep for a home appliance, especially one that's essentially a fancy proofing box. But I was desperate to master sourdough, so I took the plunge.
First off, it's beautifully designed - sleek and sturdy. My initial doubt about its warmth proved unfounded; it maintains a consistent 85°F like a champ. My doughs are rising evenly now, something my oven couldn't manage.
However, it's not perfect. The humidity settings are a bit finicky. I had to fiddle around with the water tray placement to get it right. But once I did, my loaves have had great oven spring. Overall, it's been a game-changer for my sourdough journey. Worth the investment if you're serious about baking.
