Legiano

A healthy sourdough starter is the heart of great bread — but keeping it alive and active takes consistency, observation, and good records. Legiano gives you a dedicated home for all of that: feeding logs, activity observations, hydration tracking, and a baking journal, all in one place.

HOW IT WORKS
Add your starter and set up its profile — name, hydration level, and feeding schedule. Every time you feed your starter, log the flour type, water amount, and any observations about activity, smell, or rise. The app builds up a history so you can spot patterns: which feedings produce the best activity, how temperature affects rise time, and whether your starter is getting stronger over time. When you bake, link the loaf to that day's starter state so you can trace great results back to what you did right.

KEY FEATURES
• Starter dashboard — see your starter's health, schedule, and recent activity at a glance
• Feeding log — record flour, water ratio, discard amount, and observations every feed
• Activity tracking — note rise height, peak time, smell, and texture after each feeding
• Hydration calculator — track and adjust your starter's hydration percentage
• Multiple starters — maintain profiles for rye, whole wheat, or different hydration starters
• Baking journal — log every bake with date, recipe, and outcome notes
• Feeding reminders — set a schedule so you never forget to feed
• Rise time tracker — record how long your starter takes to peak after feeding
• Temperature notes — log ambient temperature to understand how it affects activity
• Feeding history — scroll back through every feed to see your starter's progress
• Fully offline — works without any internet connection

UNDERSTANDING YOUR STARTER
Consistency is the key to a reliable starter. Legiano makes it easy to feed at the same time each day and record what you observe so that over weeks and months you build a real understanding of how your particular culture behaves. When something goes wrong — sluggish rise, off smell, liquid on top — your history helps you diagnose what changed. When things go right and you bake a perfect loaf, your records tell you exactly what conditions produced it.

BAKING JOURNAL
The baking log is linked to your starter history so each loaf has context. Record the recipe, the bulk fermentation time, the proof, and your notes on the final result. Over time you build a personal archive of what works: which flours suit your starter, how long to ferment at different temperatures, and how to adjust when conditions change.

GREAT FOR
• New sourdough bakers trying to keep a starter alive for the first time
• Experienced bakers who want to track what produces their best loaves
• Anyone running multiple starters with different profiles
• Bakers who bake infrequently and need help staying on schedule between sessions
• Hobbyists who want to understand their starter better through observation and records
