Sourhouse Starter Jars (Pint or Quart)
Sourhouse Starter Jars (Pint or Quart)
The Sourhouse Starter Jars are designed to be the easiest-to-clean sourdough starter jars in the world.
You see, there are no threads where your starter can collect and gunk up.
The soft, silicone lid hugs the outside of the jar to keep contaminates out of our jar. It stays in place with just enough friction to be secure while still letting gases out. Dry starter flakes off the lid with a squeeze.
The jars have a flat bottom, so it gets great contact with Goldie's warming base for efficient warmth transfer.
They are made of very clear, borosilicate glass so it is easy to see any bits of dry flour that need to get mixed up into your starter. And of course, the jar has straight sides so it is easy to mix, clean and track the rise of your starter.
- On the sides of each PINT size jar are dots in 50ml and 100ml increments for judging when your starter has doubled (or tripled).
- Our QUART size jar has 100ml and 200ml dots for those of you who like to keep larger starters or to build a levain in advance of a bake.
Both the PINT and QUART jars leave enough clearance inside Goldie to use a Sourhouse Cooling Puck.
For size reference, all of the pictures of Goldie this site have a PINT jar inside.
Each jar comes with a gold silicone marking band too.

Does a great job and super easy to use/maintain.
I’ve been making sourdough for over 4 years continuously ow and have rotated through a number of imperfect starter jars. I resisted this jar due to cost, but having finally bitten the bullet I am very happy.
1) It’s a big deal that it’s a lid that is both flexible rubber AND that sits on the outside of the jar rather than inside. For those for whom the reason the latter is important it’s because when you pour starter from the jar, inevitably some dries on the inside walls, as that builds up the lids that nest inside either cannot seat all the way, or they get glued to the inside…or both. That’s no issue with this lid, and even it it does stick a bit the flexible lid allows it to break away easily.
2) the straight marked walls plus the rubber band level marker really help visualize the doubling (or more) point.
I bought the pint size which is perfect for how much starter I need for a single loaf, but if you need more than ~125gm ripened starter it will likely overflow the pint size. It is also a little harder to feed the flour & water with the smaller mouth, not insurmountable, but I had to find a smaller scoop/measure to facilitate.
I may invest in a quart size for those times I need to prepare more starter.
I am amazed with the quality of this company and products . I am impatiently waiting for the heated platter for my dough . Thank you to the creators !
Easy to use jar. No scraping the grooves. Excellent.
