Who comes to our classes

Most people are home bakers. Some have never touched a starter. Others have kept one alive for years and still get flat loaves. A few are chefs and cafe owners who want to bake their own.

What they share is wanting to understand the dough, not follow a recipe blind. That is what Max teaches.

Questions people ask

Which class should I book first?

If you are new to sourdough, Express Sourdough is a good start. If you want the whole process and to go home with a starter, book the Masterclass.

What should I bring?

Nothing but an apron if you like your clothes. We supply ingredients, tools and a box to carry your bread home.

Can I change my date?

Get in touch at least seven days before your class and we will move you to another date. Email school@sourdoughrevolution.co.uk.

Is lunch included?

Lunch is included in the Masterclass. The Express and Pizza classes finish at 1pm, in time for lunch at home or in Lechlade.
