Goldie
- Year-Round Consistency: Whether it’s a chilly winter morning or a scorching summer afternoon, Goldie keeps your starter happy without needing to heat or cool your entire house.
- Monitor at a Glance: The smart three-zone thermometer uses simple colour-coded lights (Blue = too cold, Gold = just right, Red = too warm) so you can instantly see how your starter is feeling from across the kitchen.
- Elegant Design: With its small footprint and beautiful borosilicate glass cloche, Goldie showcases your starter like a centrepiece rather than hiding it away in a cupboard.
- Made for Sourdough: Goldie is specifically tuned for sourdough starters, ensuring you never accidentally cook your culture.
- Buy with confidence: Goldie by Sourhouse™ is backed by a 1-year limited warranty against material and manufacturing defects.
- Auto-Warming: Energy-efficient heating element that turns on only when needed.

Note: Goldie requires a standard USB-A wall plug (one like this) which does not come included. We've chosen not to include this plug in an effort to save landfill, as most likely you already have one in the top drawer 😊

Frequently asked questions
For everything from storage, ingredients and trouble shooting, please have a look at our FAQs.
The dry Sourdough Culture can be safely stored for at least 6 months before first activation. If you store it in the freezer, that time increases to at least 10 months. The starter culture is water-activated, so once you add water the first time you will need to continue ‘feeding’ it by stirring in some water and flour 1-2 times per week to keep it alive and healthy (instructions for this are included in the guides that come with our kits).
If you properly care for your starter culture by keeping in the fridge and feeding it 1-2 times per week, your culture will stay alive indefinitely, providing a perpetual source of yeast for your baking.
It will continue to grow as you care for it, allowing you to share it with family and friends looking to start their own sourdough baking journey :)
The culture in our Sourdough Starter Pack is completely free of gluten, and therefore suitable for a gluten-free diet so long as no other products containing gluten are used to bake with it.
