Dough it yourself
Dein Sauerteig-Back-Begleiter
$0.99
New in 1.1: share recipes as PDFs, weekly bake plans and a fresh new look. Tell the app when your bread should be ready – it plans every step backwards.
Dough it yourself is the ultimate sourdough app for home bakers. Whether you're baking your first loaf or your hundredth, it guides you through every step, from feeding your starter to the perfect loaf coming out of the oven.
Reverse scheduling — tell us when your bread should be ready.
Just enter when you want your bread to be ready, and the app works backwards to plan every step: preferment, autolyse, bulk fermentation, shaping, cold retard, baking and cooling. You'll know exactly when to start and what comes next.
Temperature-aware timing
Enter your room temperature and the app adjusts fermentation and resting times automatically. Warmer kitchen? Shorter bulk fermentation. Cooler? The app takes that into account.
Starter management
Give your starters names and avatars, log every feeding with its ratios, track the rise and keep an eye on their health. Feeding reminders make sure you never miss a feeding.
Step-by-step notifications
Every baking step is scheduled in advance as a local notification, so you always know when it's time for the next one. Your phone becomes your baking assistant.
Baking journal
Record every bake with photos, ratings (crust, crumb, flavor, oven spring) and notes. Follow your progress with statistics and trends.
Recipe editor with baker's percentages
Create and adjust recipes with baker's percentages: hydration, salt percentage and dough weight are calculated automatically, and when you plan a bake you can scale the quantity with a turn of the wheel. Choose from a built-in flour database with protein content.
Gamification
Earn achievements, build baking streaks and level up from beginner to master baker. Track your progress with XP and unlock badges for milestones.

Version 1.1 – fresh out of the oven:
• Share recipes: send your recipes as PDFs. Anyone with Dough it yourself can import them as their own recipe.
• Weekly bake plans: pick your baking days and, for each day, the time your bread should be ready.
• Backup: save recipes, starters, journal and photos in one file and restore them whenever you need to.
• New design: warmer colours, better readability and simpler navigation.
• Bake planning: adjust the quantity in half steps, set up fridge proofing and finish steps early. If hands-on steps fall in the middle of the night, the app lets you know.
• Reminders: more reliable step and feeding reminders, now also when a scheduled bake starts.
• Recipe editor: edit steps in their own window, enter ingredients in g, ml or pieces, and see exactly what's missing before you can save.
• More accurate amounts: dough weight and hydration now include preferments and starter.
• Lots of smaller improvements and fixes, especially on iPhone and iPad.
