Description
xMeet the upgraded Sourdough Starter Warmer from Yendse, crafted for home bakers who nurture starter cultures and value precise control. The setup combines a compact heated plate with a clear borosilicate glass dome, creating a dedicated micro-environment for fermentation, culture development, or gentle chocolate tempering. It’s a versatile tool that supports sourdough starters, yogurt cultures, and careful temperature tasks—without overwhelming your workflow.
Precise temperature control at your fingertips
Dial in exact warmth with one-degree increments across a 70–120°F (21–48°C) range. The current temperature display mirrors the heating plate, helping you track progress with confidence as you experiment and refine your process.
- 1°F step adjustments for repeatable results
- 70–120°F range suitable for starters, cultures, and tempering
- Simple, one-button operation for quick setup
Glass dome: monitor and maintain without guesswork
The thick borosilicate glass dome (5" diameter, 8" height) keeps warmth and humidity steady while letting you observe fermentation at a glance. It fits most fermentation tanks on the market, helping you gauge activity without removing the cover.
Tip: use the dome to watch rise and activity in real time, which feels satisfying as you bake.
Smart timer and status indicators for a smoother routine
Program a 0–24 hour timer with automatic on/off. A 1-minute alert notifies you when the session ends, and the indicator light shows red during active heating and blue when the target is reached, so you don’t have to guess.

Energy-smart design that fits your kitchen
Powered by a 12W heating plate with a US-standard plug, it emphasizes efficiency while delivering consistent heat. The temperature you see aligns with actual heating, and pairing with the glass dome enhances control and visibility.
