Professional Precision.
Home Kitchen Simplicity.

People have been making bread for about as long as we’ve been human.

Somewhere along the way, it got complicated.

BreadIQ™ removes the barrier, not the baker.

Start here

What would you like to make?

You bring the curiosity. BreadIQ™ handles the complexity.

Scaling

Scaled to exactly what you need.

Three pizza balls for family night. A dozen rolls for the pot roast. Six buns for the cookout. BreadIQ™ re-weighs every ingredient for exactly what you need, with no manual math.

And it goes beyond how many.

Baguette and focaccia come with a size slider, up or down 20%, so the dough fits the bread you want to make, not just the one in the recipe. A skinnier baguette or a thicker one. Focaccia thin and crispy, or thick and pillowy. You choose the size, and BreadIQ™ re-weighs the whole formula to match.

The formula

Bread is complicated. Making it doesn’t have to be.

BreadIQ™ does the calculations. You do the fun part.

Ancient wheat, weak gluten structure

Change the flour and BreadIQ™ knows what it needs: more water or less, how strong the gluten is, and when the dough wants a rest. Whole-grain and ancient-grain blends change the plan itself, with autolyse and mixing time that fit. You don’t need to know what autolyse is. BreadIQ™ knows when your flour needs it.

Fermentation

Bread doesn’t follow a clock.

Add a preferment, retard it overnight, push it with malt: BreadIQ™ builds all of it into one timeline. But the clock depends on more than the steps. Kitchen temperature, how much yeast goes in and the steps you add all change how fast it ferments. Change one and watch the timeline move.

In a hurry? BreadIQ™ SpeedRun™ isn’t a shortcut. It’s programmable urgency, for when you want fresh bread fast.

Sweeteners and diastatic malt change the pace, too.

Sugar is yeast food, and each sweetener feeds the dough a little differently. Diastatic malt goes further: its enzymes turn the flour’s starch into more sugar as the dough ferments. BreadIQ™ accounts for both together.

The yeast works only from the sugars already in the flour.

Your environment

Your kitchen changed overnight.

The air in your kitchen is part of your recipe whether you account for it or not. With HomeKit and Matter, BreadIQ™ already knows. Connect a Home sensor and it fills in your kitchen’s temperature and humidity for you. Dry air calls for more water in the dough, humid air for less. Let a pre-ferment run overnight and, when you come back to scale the dough, BreadIQ™ checks again: it adjusts the final-dough water for the change in humidity and updates your proof timeline if the kitchen got warmer or cooler. On Android, enter your kitchen’s temperature and humidity and BreadIQ™ plans your timeline and hydration around them.

The heat kicked on overnight and the air dried out. When you opened BreadIQ™, it adjusted your hydration and your timeline. You didn’t have to do the math.

Great bread doesn’t require perfect conditions, just the right adjustments. BreadIQ™ makes them for you.

Live dough telemetry

Your dough starts talking back.

Bring a Combustion Inc probe. BreadIQ™ watches what your dough is actually doing, not just what it’s supposed to, and tells you the moment the bread is done.

Internal temperature
148°F
Loaf goes inTarget 205°F

BreadIQ™ tracks internal temperature all the way through the bake and tells you the moment it’s actually done.

The same probe feeds live telemetry into the BreadIQ™ Predictive Fermentation Model™, so your timeline reflects what your dough is really doing.

From mixing bowl to cooling rack, BreadIQ™ is watching your dough so you don’t have to.

Scheduler

BreadIQ™, your dinner plan partner.

Tell BreadIQ™ when you want your bread ready. It works backward through every fermentation stage, proof window, bake and cooling period to tell you exactly when to start, with a reminder 30 minutes before. Then drop the start time into your calendar with one tap.

Turn-by-turn navigation for your bake

Active Bake concierge.

Think turn-by-turn navigation, for bread. BreadIQ™ tells you what to do now, what comes next and when, from the first timer to the last. And when your hands are covered in dough, just ask Siri.

Step 1 of 5

A timer at every step.

Timers at each stage, set for you and based on your own selections. You don’t watch the clock. BreadIQ™ does.

Step 2 of 5

Coil folds, remembered.

A countdown to your next coil fold during the proof, so you never have to remember it yourself.

Step 3 of 5

Alerts that keep you on track.

Push notifications at every handoff, and a heads-up five minutes before a step ends, so you’re at the mixer or the oven at exactly the right moment.

Step 4 of 5

Every bake on one lock screen.

Running more than one bake? One card on your lock screen tracks them all, so a glance tells you which loaf needs you next.

Step 5 of 5iOS only

Hands in the dough? Just ask.

Ask where you are in a bake, what to do next or which bake needs you. Tell BreadIQ™ the kitchen has warmed up. Your hands stay in the dough.

After the bake

The analysis you didn’t have to ask for.

Every formula you build is automatically priced and nutritionally analyzed, so the numbers are already there if they matter to you.

Cost per loaf

Market reference pricing, updated regularly. Or enter your own exact costs.

BreadIQ nutritional analysis for a bake
Nutrition per serving

Calculated from USDA data, accounting for the moisture your dough actually loses in the oven, not just what went into the bowl.

These are estimates, not a lab result. A clear picture for awareness, not a nutrition label. But if it matters to you, it’s already there.

Recipe import

Everything you just saw, applied to any recipe you bring.

Photograph it. Paste a URL. Type it in. Or skip typing: the Safari extension sends it straight from your browser, and the Chrome extension stages it so it’s waiting when you open the app.

Any recipe. Any source. Fully calculated, fully guided, fully yours.

Under the hood

Extreme capability. Zero complexity.

Underneath an effortless interface is a highly advanced computational engine built specifically for bread.

Arrhenius thermal model

Temperature-driven fermentation kinetics

Replaces fixed timers with Arrhenius kinetic modeling, so the fermentation rate follows temperature the way yeast actually behaves, and the estimate is revised as temperatures change.

In plain English

Your dough doesn’t ferment on a timer. It ferments on a thermal curve. BreadIQ™ predicts when it will be ready and revises it when your kitchen’s conditions change.

Dynamic ambient modeling

Temperature and humidity compensation

Applies your kitchen’s temperature and humidity to both the proof timeline and the hydration of your recipe. Set them yourself on any device, or on iOS read them automatically from HomeKit and Matter sensors.

In plain English

Flour behaves differently in a humid summer kitchen than in dry winter air. BreadIQ™ compensates, so your dough starts from the right hydration.

Live probe telemetry

Wireless thermal probe integration

Integrates with the Combustion Inc wireless probe, reading dough temperature during proofing and internal temperature in the oven, and feeding the live reading into the fermentation model.

In plain English

No guesswork, no toothpicks, no sliced-open loaves. BreadIQ™ tells you where your dough really is, and the moment the bake is done.

Flour-aware autolyse

Eight-flour behavior matrix

Water, gluten and autolyse character built in for eight flours, from bread and AP to einkorn, spelt, rye and semolina.

In plain English

Different flours absorb water and develop gluten at different rates. BreadIQ™ sets the rest and the mixing for the flour you chose.
