Our sourdough baking school in Lechlade
Three classes, eight people at a time, in the bakery where we bake our wholesale bread. Max teaches every class himself.

The school opened in February 2024 inside the bakery in Lechlade. Choose the full day Masterclass (£190, lunch included), or a morning Express Sourdough or Sourdough Pizza class (£95 each). Classes run Tuesday to Thursday and book online through Acuity.

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.

Groups, teams and parties
Book the whole school for six or more. Private groups and team days run on a date that suits you. Kids pizza parties work from age six.

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.
