Yeast on East

Tell it when you start and it plans the rest of the day — every fold, every rest, the bake, and what time the loaf comes out. No account, no subscription.

Most bake timers are a stopwatch with extra steps. Yeast on East knows that a 24°C kitchen ferments faster than a 19°C one, and rebuilds your whole schedule around it.

BUILT AROUND YOUR START TIME Pick a recipe, say when you're starting, and every step lands on a real clock time. Change one thing and the rest moves with it. No mental arithmetic at 6am.

TEMPERATURE THAT ACTUALLY MATTERS Log your dough temperature and the timings adjust. The app works between 15°C and 35°C, because outside that range the honest answer is a cold retard, not a number.

ALERTS THAT KNOW THE DIFFERENCE A 4am fold wakes you up. A pantry reminder waits until morning. Bake alerts ignore quiet hours because that's the whole point. Miss one and the app re-plans the rest of the schedule instead of pretending it didn't happen.

NOT EVERYTHING IS BREAD Sauerkraut, kimchi, hot sauce, yoghurt — anything that ferments on a schedule. Finished jars go to the pantry with the dates you set, never a shelf life the app invented.

A LOG WORTH KEEPING Rate each bake, note what happened, add a photo. Over time you can see which temperatures work in your kitchen and which don't.

ON YOUR PHONE, FULL STOP No account to create. No server to sign in to. No analytics. Your recipes and bake log stay on your device, because there's nowhere else for them to go. Share any recipe as a .yoe file — the formula and steps travel, your photos and log never do.

WHAT IT WON'T DO It won't tell you whether a ferment is safe to eat. Safety depends on salt, acidity, temperature and submersion, and the app measures none of them. It tracks the dates you enter and nothing more. Trust your own judgement, and when in doubt throw it out.

WHAT IT COSTS Free, with room for three of your own recipes. A one-time unlock lifts that to as many as you like. Timers, alerts, the widget, Live Activity, pantry, log and photos are free and stay free. Not a subscription — there's nothing to cancel.
