What is Heritage wheat?
Heritage Wheat-The Way Wheat Used to Be:
Heritage wheat was the predominant wheat grown in America up until the 1950’s. Many people find it more digestible than modern wheat. Its long deep root system allowed it to survive the Dust Bowl, and gave the Midwest its famous nickname “The Bread Basket”. Heritage wheat was a staple in every household. The history of it can be tracked to biblical times and has been responsible for nourishing generations. It was grown before the introduction of intensive scientific plant breeding.This wheat is experiencing a resurgence.

The Perfect Starter
Sunrise Flour Mill Starter Kit is the perfect purchase for a novice like me who is just starting to get into sourdough bread making. The instructions were clear, the kit itself had everything I needed to get the starter growing, and Sunrise's communication was above and beyond.

Sourdough starter
I am a sourdough starter rookie, but I followed the include directions that I got with the kit, and used the pizza dough flour, it did what it was supposed to do. I just used a kilo of dough,70g of the starter, and divided into 8 200g dough balls, that are proofing overnight as we speak. So far, so good.

Great Starter!
I am new to sourdough and bread making, but I do have knowledge of baking made from scratch cinnamon rolls, biscuits, cookies, ect. So I'd say I am an average baker. The kit was great and I loved the detailed instructions. I have always measured ingredients, so weighing them was new to me, but I figured it out quickly. My schedule did not allow to make the bread on day 5 as the instructions advised, and it got left on the counter un-fed for 2 days....but all turned out well, it did not raise as much as the instructions said it should have, but I made it anyway. It was a more dense bread, which I prefer anyway, so that worked out for me. I really love the flavor of the sourdough. The leftover starter is in the fridge ready for the next loaf to be baked, and I am excited to continue to experiment and get better at the whole process. Definitely give this kit a try - it was a very easy and handy kit to get started making sourdough bread!!

Starter kit
Get it? It’s a kit… for sourdough starter! It’s allegedly for beginners but I’ve been baking my own bread for a while and these are handy tools. Now I don’t have to wonder which mason jar with bacon grease(?), fermenting grain(?), potato soup(?), or which is my sourdough starter. The lid tells me exactly. The long spatula is just the right length and sturdiness for mixing and clearing the sides. The marking band and the adhesive thermometer served very well too. And, how cute is the little cotton bonnet to cover the jar as my girl warms up and gets her bubbles? I gifted the dried starter to my sister and she’s pretty excited to have a tutorial baking session with me.

Great Bread
Flavor was good. As a first time sourdough baker, it would have helped to have a better understanding of what the consistancy of the starter should look like before baking.

Easy, Peasy
I received the Starter Kit, mixed it up and 5 days later mixed up my first sourdough. I couldn’t bake it for a couple of days, which does help develop the sour-ness. My dough was pretty hydrated - I think too much, but it still came out great. Heritage four, “antique” sourdough starter, and time made my family VERY happy.
