Oxford Sourdough FAQs

How long does it take to arrive in Oxford?

Orders are processed quickly and shipped free worldwide, including the UK. Because the starter is dehydrated, it travels happily through the post — no rush, no spoilage, and no fragile live culture to worry about.

What flour should I feed it?

Strong white bread flour is the classic choice, and a little wholemeal gives it a lovely boost. Keep it simple — your starter isn't fussy, and the included instructions walk you through every feed.

Is there really an activation guarantee?

Yes. If you follow the instructions and your starter refuses to activate, we've got you covered. Beginner-friendly, no guesswork, and our Sourdough Academy is there for every question along the way.
