I have the one they sell. It might have come from Amazon though. I was a present from the DW.

I also have the stacking kit.

I used the proofer today when I made sandwich bread

These were yeast based. and the crumb wasn't quite right, but they too less than 2 hours and tasted fantastic.

They do look good! The sourdough recipe that is in the index is sourdough but also has yeast

You should dump out half and add flour and warm milk every 12 hours.

Keep going unless the dough turns pink. If so, try again using the breadtopia start recipe

oh warm milk! That explains why a little sugar perked it up! I've been using water. Sheesh I'd better find the instructions, maybe they said milk. Well it's been fun having a bowl to look in anyhow .

Milk is only one recipe. Plain water is more common. If you are really having trouble, be sure you’re not using hard or soft water.

Well I dumped it out. We have well water and I'm sure it's pretty hard.
