"My daughters and I took a sourdough bread baking class with mooon BREAD, and it was nothing short of phenomenal. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed into a hands-on, thoughtfully guided experience that was equal parts educational and inspiring. Jordan’s passion and expertise made complex techniques feel approachable, and every step was broken down in a way that was easy to understand — even for beginners like us. We learned not only the how, but also the why behind each step of the sourdough process, which made it all the more rewarding. Beyond the skills we gained, what made this class truly special was the atmosphere. It was warm, fun, and full of encouragement — a perfect bonding experience for me and my daughters. We left with freshly baked loaves, newfound confidence, and a deeper appreciation for the art of bread making. It was truly a five-star experience."

"Jordan is a fantastic and passionate teacher of all-things Sourdough. Beyond that he's just an incredible person. His class was fun, instructional, and I left feeling empowered to make healthy bread anytime I needed to. I've since made loaves at home that turned out great all because of his methods of teaching. This class is fun and a bargain to be honest."

"Beautiful location and amazing, knowledgeable host. Jordan is so kind and presents the class in an easy to understand format for both beginning and experienced bakers alike. He includes not just his love of the bread making experience, but of the science behind it, and his efforts to make a small impact on both our species and on the Earth, by returning to what is natural for both. I’m excited to carry on Dez’s legacy as I continue to learn, and begin to make my own sourdough imprint."

"I have made 40 loaves of sourdough in the last 2 months since taking this class. I am hooked. Jordan is a fantastic teacher and human. He made an intimidating process very simple and easy to understand. It was the perfect date with my wife; we both had a great time and left with a very valuable skill...just ask our neighbors :)"

"I'd been feeding my starter for six months with mediocre results until I took Jordan's workshop. The difference is night and day — my loaves finally have the open crumb and ear I'd been chasing. The science-based approach completely changed how I think about fermentation."

"I never baked anything in my life before finding mooon BREAD. Jordan's method made sourdough feel accessible, not intimidating. Two months later and I'm the guy bringing homemade bread to every dinner party. My friends think I'm some kind of wizard."

"The crêpe recipe alone was worth the price of admission. I use my discard starter every weekend now, and my kids actually ask for them by name. Jordan's approach to sourdough as biology first, baking second completely resonated with my science background."

"I flew in from out of state for the corporate workshop with my team and it was the highlight of our quarter. We bonded over flour-dusted hands and left with loaves we were genuinely proud of. Jordan has a gift for making complex techniques feel like common sense."

"Dez the starter has traveled with me to three different states now. It's become this living heirloom in my kitchen. My grandmother used to bake bread, and reconnecting with that tradition through Jordan's guidance has been unexpectedly emotional and deeply rewarding."

"The pizza dough recipe changed my Friday nights forever. That 48-hour cold proof is no joke — it develops a tang and texture you simply cannot get from commercial yeast. My Ooni has never been more appreciated."

"I was terrified of sourdough before Jordan's class. All the Instagram bakers made it look so precious and complicated. Jordan demystified everything and made me feel like I could actually do this. Now I bake twice a week and my kitchen has never smelled better."

"I bought Dez as a gift for my husband who loves to cook. He was skeptical at first — a dehydrated starter through the mail? But it revived beautifully and now he bakes every Sunday. It's become our weekend ritual. Best gift I've ever given."

"After watching Jordan on Fox 13, I signed up for the video course the same day. It's the best $50 I've spent on my cooking education. The way he explains why things work — not just what to do — made everything click. My loaves went from okay to incredible in three bakes."
