Excellent product, well made, easy to use. I use it for bread dough proofing, as my oven does not have a setting for bread proofing, I also do not like using oven lights for overnight proofing becuse the temperature rises too high, this Matt is fantastic as it allows to set a despicable temperature. I also use it for yogurt making, running a large oven for one batch of yogurt is unreasonable, this mat is great.

I ordered both the mat and the box, but the box will arrive 10 days later than the mat. I’m not waiting 10 days, so I used a folding grocery store cooler, and it worked like a charm, although it’s smaller than the box meant for the mat. I bought the pair for making sourdough in the colder months, just to speed up bulk fermentation, and it works very well. I found that I needed the mat to be around 83F/28C to maintain a dough temp of 78F/25.5C. Definitely use a thermometer to check your dough temp, and don’t assume the mat temp is your dough temp. Anyway, it cut down my BF time by 4.5 hrs or so, and my dough was bubbly and light. It’s a much less expensive option than the folding Brod and Taylor option, and definitely very effective.

I’ve been trying to make a sour dough starter for over a week but my house was too cold (up in Canada on a -30C week). I now have this heating pad wrapped around my jar and all tucked inside a lunch bag cooler. It’s now bubbling and getting going finally! Works well… I feel it is a “must have” for the sour dough baker with limited patience! Now the rise time is predictable.

Over the past 3 years I used a seedling heating mat and an insulated delivery pizza tote to proof my sourdough. That mat quit functioning correctly. The new mat works very good!

Great product that provides a consistent temperature for bread proofing. I selected this product because of the size and it did not disappoint. Two mixing bowls fit on it perfectly. It is thin and easy to clean and store. I was surprised that it didn't get a bit warmer so I had to play with the settings for several hours to regulate the heat.

I do really like this, and I do wrap it up in a big towel like it states to, but it didn’t seem to be quite as warm as it needed to be, but touching 80 degrees is not like having 80 degrees in your house. It does give me the perfect rise every single time and my bread has been so much more consistent since I started using this!

Everyone who bakes knows that temperature can make the difference in an okay loaf and a great one. This is a handy mat that stores small and easily unrolls, which regulates temperature on your countertop. For me, this is a nice alternative to the proof feature on my oven, which always runs way too warm to be useful, or a much larger dedicated proofing box (too hard to store!). I liked the easy instructions and straightforward design. It's nice that you can see both your desired temp and the current temp so you know when it's ready to use. I can already tell this will be a game-changer in the winter when my kitchen gets pretty cold. One tip: for best results, I found it helpful to use a metal bowl or thinner-walled container that conducts the heat from the mat more efficiently, vs. a thicker, more insulated plastic bowl.

Great warming Matt. Get my sourdough starter rising faster. My house is old. Definite makes a difference in the winter time.

I finally started my sourdough journey this fall and after trying relentlessly to get my starter working, I gave up and finally bought this mat and within two days it was perfect. I love it because you can control the temperature, which gives you some control over the timing of your starter being ready and also your bulk fermentation time and it looks nice on the counter as well so big plus for me

I am an avid kombucha fermenter. My downstairs kitchen is always on the too cool side so I purchased this mat to keep my ferments at a bit warmer temp. It works like a charm; stays true to the set temperature (as verified by my IR thermometer), and has worked nonstop since it was purchased! The nice large size lets me work the primary fermentation vessels and several bottles of secondary without being short of space!

On the first try, the mat didn’t work. It’s suppose to give heat between 70-120. I was trying to use it for bread and wanted it at 80 degrees but nothing unless I put it up at 95 degrees and then I would feel some heat. Mat is being returned.
