Made for a Smaller Starter
The Small Starter Jar is designed for bakers who prefer maintaining a modest amount of starter between baking days. The smaller capacity makes regular feedings easier to manage and helps limit unnecessary flour use and discard.
Its smooth glass interior leaves no grooves for starter to collect in, while markings in both inches and centimeters make rise activity easy to follow. The adjustable black ring gives you a quick reference point for the starter's height immediately after feeding.
Signature Features
1.5-cup capacity: Comfortably holds up to 100 grams of fully risen starter, making it well suited to smaller daily feedings.
Compact footprint: At just 3 inches wide and 3.6 inches tall, the jar takes up little refrigerator or counter space.
Clear rise markings: Inch and centimeter measurements make it easy to monitor starter growth and fermentation activity.
Adjustable tracking ring: Set the black ring at the starter's level after feeding to see its rise at a glance.
Loose-fitting lid: The plastic lid protects the starter while allowing it to breathe and regulate pressure during fermentation.
Smooth glass interior: The simple shape avoids grooves where starter can collect, making feeding and cleanup easier.
Sourdough Home compatible: Up to four Small Starter Jars can fit inside the Brød & Taylor Sourdough Home for maintaining multiple starters or feeding schedules.
Dishwasher safe: The jar and lid can go into the dishwasher for straightforward cleanup.
From Our Founder
"The Small Starter Jar makes sense when you want to maintain enough starter to keep it healthy without feeding a large quantity between bakes. The compact size makes growth easy to see, and you use less flour every time you feed it."
Tony Boulton, Founder, Design & Grace

What makes Brod & Taylor products different?
Brod & Taylor focus on solving real problems in the kitchen, particularly around temperature control and consistency. Their tools are thoughtfully engineered, easy to use, and designed to deliver professional-level results in a home environment.
Do I need a proofing box for sourdough?
A proofing box isn’t essential, but it makes a significant difference. Sourdough is highly sensitive to temperature, and a controlled environment helps ensure consistent fermentation, better structure, and more predictable results.
What is the Sourdough Home used for?
The Sourdough Home is designed to maintain a precise temperature for your starter. It keeps your starter active and consistent, reducing daily variation and helping you bake with more confidence.
What does a bread steel do?
A bread steel stores and delivers strong, even heat from below your dough during baking. This improves oven spring, helps develop a better crust, and creates more consistent results compared to standard baking trays.
How do baking shells improve bread baking?
Baking shells trap steam around your dough during the early stage of baking. This allows the bread to expand fully before the crust sets, resulting in better rise, improved texture, and a crisp, crackling crust.
Are Brod & Taylor products easy to use at home?
Yes. While the results are professional-level, the products are designed to be simple and intuitive. Most require minimal setup and quickly become part of a regular baking routine
Are Design & Grace an authorized Brod & Taylor dealer?
