I get more lift in the enameled Dutch oven vs the cast iron. I’m not sure why. Congrats on your business! I’m starting mine slowly - trying to get LLC.

[@madarafarms]

That’s so exciting!! Keep me posted

[@Mama.annalise]

Did you use a LLC? I'm just starting this sourdough first and eventually adding roasted coffee. I'm in Wisconsin, your videos have been so helpful 🙏🏼

[@madarafarms]

Yes we did! Roasted coffee, tell me more I’d love to do that!

[@Mama.annalise]

@@madarafarms I found a air roaster they are a little pricey but can do 18 pounds of coffee in an hour 👀 I have four little ones so making an income at home is the goal, I know people who made more just selling bags of coffee than the cafe! I have to plumb and add electric to an outbuilding so I'm hoping to just get started with bread. I know of people who used their front porch to do it, I have heard it will be strong coffee smell though 😆

Thanks for sharing! Loving your videos :)

[@madarafarms]

Thank you so much!!

[@user-sx7xz3qp2k]

Could I ask what you are able to charge for your loaves and how you figured the pricing out?

[@madarafarms]

Of course! I charge $8-$12 retail and $5-$7 wholesale. I’m in a lower income area so I can’t charge much more than that. Depending on where you live your price will vary. Figure out what your cost is and make sure to at least triple that. Go to your local markets and bakeries to see how much they charge.

Hi! I have a similar set up to you kitchen-wise and am working on doing more bulk-baking. How do you time/navigate where your dough that has all been shaped at the same time stays while some are in the oven? Do you keep them in the fridge while they wait their baking turn? Hope my question makes sense! 🙂

[@madarafarms]

Hey!! I’m so happy you’re doing more bulk baking!! Yes I keep them all in the fridge until it’s their turn.

I started following ur page, u really inspire me, tx for sharing ur sourdough journey. I started 3 mths ago and haven't looked back. I am selling sourdough bread and starter in a jar to get people started and trusting that it's not complicated. I am from SA. How long in advance do ur customers order and how long do they wait before getting their bread?

[@madarafarms]

I’m so happy for you!! That’s amazing. I request a 2 day lead time

[@shireenporthern815]

Tx so much for ur feedback. Looking forward to more of ur videos.

[@darlenerodgers9910]

Wait, why do I need filtered water?? We have a whole house water softener and reverse osmosis for the fridge water.

[@madarafarms]

Then you are good! We have a well so we have to filter ours.

[@darlenerodgers9910]

@@madarafarms oh! Okay!
