Brod and Taylor Bread Dough Proofer

[@jordhuga271]

This product is amazing. Easy to use and store. Uses very little energy. Can be brought to camp or traveling with ease. Slowcooker, proofer, and yogurt maker. Very glad I purchased.

[@janine5540]

I just picked one up at Good Will- Brand New for 9 bucks! I imagine it was purchased for the bread baking craze of Covid- but who ever bought it lost interest fast. My gain!

[@larrypollman5243]

SCORE!

[@2tommyrad]

I have had this proofer for 6 years and it has been awesome. Also excellent for making bulk yogurt, as you can fit 6, 1-quart Mason jars in it.

Great video! I just watched this as I'm setting mine up for the first time. I'm on day 3/7 of my Neapolitan Sourdough Pizza starter. This thing is a breeze to setup, use, store, and is efficient! I cannot wait to see how my dough rises through this box. The simplest of features, like a collapsible container and a window on the lid makes all the difference to me. 10/10

[@proprintct7183]

How has that gone since?

[@armanmesri2342]

Thank you very much for this info. You did convince me to purchase this product for my wife. Needless to say she is very pleased and can bake and experiment with sourdough now.🙏

[@tlynn7043]

Best assembly video I’ve seen thank you !!

[@flowergrowersmith449]

I've just ordered mine after thinking about it for ages. I hope it will take the hit and miss out of making sourdough. I'll be living in quite a cold climate location next year - I may need to put my starter in it also from time to time! Very good review - thanks.

[@nikolajhansen15]

How do you feel about it today?

[@TJB3NC]

Hi Teresa, just placed my order for one of these. Getting ready to get ready to take your "101" course. Can wait to begin the journey.

[@NorthwestSourdough]

+TJB3NC Whoo hooo!! It's that time of year, I have been using my proofer a lot more. Happy Baking!

[@silviachisholm3261]

How do you switch from modes? Like to slow cook. Mine its just like your model but i dont seems to know how to change modes

[@shannonmurphy9790]

I've been debating whether or not to purchase this as my house is always cold. Now that you have had it several years, do you still love it?

[@John3-16KJV]

Shannon: Same here, kitchen so cold takes many hours & would absolutely love one of these but very expensive, so making do with large zip lock bag & mug of hot water for steam! 😂

[@NorthwestSourdough]

Yes, I have two now and I use them all of the time. I also use it to make yogurt.

[@betspath]

Can you direct me to your mixer method for sourdough?

[@herbhunter5520]

Could you recommend a sourdough recipe I just ordered a proofer!

[@NorthwestSourdough]

This is an easy newbie formula: kzbin.info/www/bejne/emW1dmmrqKhsmZI

[@NolaGB]

Is there plenty of room between the 2 racks to make it easy to remove the breads that have been proofing?

[@barrytipton1179]

If you buy a Bosch or neff oven you can set the oven to 80f or less

[@doina8340]

I found this proofer at a thrift store today for $15. It’s only missing the tray that holds the water.

[@michaelnoeldner3279]

Teresa can you do your starter in this? If so can you keep this machine running for 14 days straight?

[@richspizzaparty]

Michael Noeldner the answer is, yes.

[@sgtjenko]

Is 80f the optimum temperature for proofing? - No wonder I'm having problems in the UK winter.

[@rogerharmon8720]

how long should sourdough take to proof in the proofer at 80 f regards roger.

[@larsroth826]

Do you mean sour dough or sour dough starter? I find that the starters development does very well in an 80+ temperature But when it comes to the actual dough at least I prefer it to develop much slower and in lower temperature, but maybe that is just me?

[@pbziegler]

I bought one about 8 months ago. Used it maybe 20 times. It died. Won't go on when I plug it in and try to turn it on. Not happy

[@NorthwestSourdough]

Contact Brod and Taylor, they will sort out your problem.

[@paulinek1967]

New to bread baking. I've never used one of these. Does it matter what your room temp is? I live in a really warm climate.

[@NorthwestSourdough]

***** Unfortunately, it only allows for warmer temperatures, not temperature controls. You can set the temperature you want but it won't cool it down. So it is a warming box really. You probably need a temperature control box, to cool your dough down a bit. I wish they made one of those!

[@SusanSSE]

My home is cold climate, I would want to get proofed machine

[@lastonesmiling]

I think those cooling boxes you're talking about are called refrigerators! @@NorthwestSourdough

[@pufarinu]

great video! those plastic walls look cheap. is this a good quality machine?

[@Lifebymitzu]

May I ask a question? Is the cord removable I want to import the proofer since it is not available in my country?

[@hobolooter]

yes, it comes separate. looks like a standard desktop computer power cable

[@Lifebymitzu]

@@hobolooter Thank you 😊

[@larsroth826]

I am going to make one of my own, Yes fold able very god. A poor mans version.. a cooling box from a garage sale + an aquarium heater $ 15. Using my thermometer from the bbcue. Put the heater 50W in some water and you get both moisture and heat.

[@tlynn7043]

Nice but this folds compactly and stores. I’ve read every way possible to rig something to get heat and humidity and I don’t want store a lot of bulky stuff. This is perfect.

[@danmarinkovich5223]

My first thought is, this doesn't seem like it would produce enough humidity to keep the surface of the dough drying out.

[@capyboppy]

I believe from what I have read, there is an optional humidity button on it.

[@kennym1528]

Could you please tell me what size bannetons you use?

[@NorthwestSourdough]

Usually 8" but I sometimes use 8.5" rounds

[@ZenaBattaglia]

Mine is on its way from Amazon!

[@NorthwestSourdough]

Diane Terrizzi I love mine!

[@MyChilepepper]

You made me check my regular range oven again because it has an indicator for proof. Huh, now I know what it is for. Duh!

[@andyblackpool]

Extremely overpriced in my opinion, it all looks extremely cheap and there's no insulation either.. It does a good job I reckon but I'd pay half for it but never what they are charging

[@eyeonart6865]

To expensive! I will use my instant pot.

[@Chocolatechipwitches]

How?

[@lxmzhg]

Looks like a flimsy piece of crap!! You're better off making your own.

[@offroad5594]

Not everyone has the time to build one. I have this unit and it works great. Also with a small kitchen like I have it's great it folds up for storage. I love it!

[@jacqueescue4107]

It's really well made for something that can store easily! I'm impressed!

[@lxmzhg]

You're both right, but the problem is that this thing costs more than it's worth. Because it is cheaply made it should cost much less... you're being ripped off
