Quick questions, honest answers

I'm in Northern Ireland, not England — is shipping still free?

Yes. Free shipping covers every UK address, and that absolutely includes all of Northern Ireland. Belfast, Derry, everywhere — no surcharges, no mainland-only fine print, no fuss at checkout.

Why choose dehydrated starter over a fresh, live one?

Fresh cultures can arrive sluggish after a long trip, and nobody wants to nurse a tired jar back to life. Dehydrated starter is already resting — you simply rehydrate it, feed it, and watch it spring into action. It's the most reliable way to get a vigorous culture to Northern Ireland.

How soon can I bake my first loaf?

Most bakers see a bubbly, active starter within a few days of rehydrating. Follow the step-by-step guide and you'll be mixing your first dough before you know it — and our activation guarantee means you're never baking on your own.
