The DoughBed by Sourhouse is an innovative proofing tool designed for home bakers to achieve the perfect proof for both sourdough and yeast breads, regardless of fluctuating kitchen temperatures. This tool consists of a warming mat, a transparent glass dough bowl, and a cork lid that work together to maintain an ideal dough temperature between 75-82°F (24-28°C). The cork elements ensure heat is retained within the dough rather than escaping into the surroundings, providing a consistent proofing temperature. The oval shape of the bowl, inspired by traditional wooden dough bowls, enhances handling during mixing, folding, and kneading while preventing the bowl from sliding. The transparent nature of the bowl allows bakers to monitor the dough’s progress visually, promoting better baking skills and consistent results. DoughBed is also designed for convenience with a cable that tucks away for storage and dishwasher-safe components, making it a practical addition to any baker’s kitchen. This setup ensures that bakers can always expect successful, repeatable results and conveniently schedule baking to fit their routines.
