Bulk fermentation cheat code!!!!

Purchased this a second unit for a friend as i already have one of my own. I tokd her about the products that Brod & Taylor have and thought they'd be a perfect gift for her sourdough journey. Love the convenience of the proofer and even grabbed the bag for easy storage. Will continue to tell anyone who wants to listen about B&T

Worth every penny~!

I have been struggling with proofing my sourdough for almost a year...until I discovered the Brod & Taylor Proofer - it has been a game-changer for me. Proofing is completely predictable as the temperature and humidity are always constant. There is no more guessing, no more frustration due to the fluctuation of temperature in my kitchen, which on some days is vast! Thank you for such a great product. It folds and stores easily, and has taken the frustration out of breadmaking for me. It arrived quickly after I ordered it, and I have already told several friends that if they are serious about sourdough and struggle with bulk fermentation, then this is the tool for them. Thank you.

After using my Friends Proofer I had to have one!

What a game changer when making sourdough can't wait to try all the things you can do with this product!

Jules, we're so glad your friend's proofer won you over - welcome to the family and we can't wait to hear about all the delicious things you rise to make! Thanks for the wonderful review!

Great products however terrible Australian customer service! Purchased a carry case for my proofer along with the proofer, waited for months to receive it, I never did. I was then told it was sold out despite it saying it was in stock and allowing me to pay for it. I was provided with a partial refund with the promise that they will honour the $49.95 price for the proofer without the additional shipping fee as I had already purchased $517.80 AUD worth of products including the carry case. They never honoured their promise and instead increased the proofer case to $79.95 when it came back in stock! More than a year and a half later I’m still waiting for support to respond! Seriously I’ve tried to be as patient as possible but this is ridiculous! 🫠 I would love to speak to someone in customer care higher than the same support officer because he hasn’t responded to me since May 2025 and the original box I put the proofer in is wearing out! I would like the original sale to be honoured!
