We just had to let you know about this Kickstarter project. If you’re a fan of baking sourdough bread regularly, here’s one you’ll definitely want one for yourself.
Crustello is a new Kickstarter project aimed at bakers who want more control and consistency in their sourdough process. Crustello is a smart dough bowl and sensor system that monitors key fermentation variables in real time, including volume, temperature, and humidity. Designed for bakers who want precision and repeatable results, it provides data-driven insights to guide every stage of the process.
Smart fermentation bowls for consistent dough and sourdough
Crustello pairs advanced sensor technology with an intuitive app, delivering real-time insights and control for every stage of baking. The system supports sourdough starters, pizza dough, and a range of artisanal breads, making it a versatile tool for home and professional bakers.
Consistent results start with accurate monitoring and control.

Real-Time Growth Tracking
A lid-mounted sensor tracks the volume increase of your dough and sourdough, providing precise data on fermentation progress and notifying you when it’s ready.
Each bowl includes a sensor that measures volume, temperature, humidity, and rise in real time. This allows for detailed tracking of growth and fermentation activity, supporting more consistent baking outcomes.
Environment Monitoring
Crustello sensors monitor temperature and humidity inside the bowl and in the surrounding environment. This data helps bakers understand and adjust for the impact of kitchen conditions on dough performance.
Smart App Integration
The Crustello app collects sensor data and presents it as clear graphs, alerts, and records. This enables bakers to track fermentation and dough development with greater accuracy and consistency.
