Our Commitment to the Craft: The Slow Fermentation Process

1. Mixing & Autolyse

We begin with premium flours and pure water, allowing them to rest and naturally initiate gluten development.

2. Bulk Fermentation

For hours, we carefully fold the dough, nurturing its strength and allowing complex flavors to slowly develop.

3. Cold Proof

The dough rests overnight in a cool environment, a crucial step for that signature sourdough tang and superior digestibility.

4. Baking

Each loaf is baked to perfection, yielding a deeply caramelized crust and a soft, airy, aromatic crumb.
