FermTrack

A smarter way to track dough, fermentation, and prep workflow.

FermTrack is a kitchen system for tracking dough batches, fermentation stages, and corrective actions without relying on paper logs or memory.

Early demo build. Everything currently saves locally and may be prone to breakage while development continues.

What FermTrack is built to do

Built around a pretzel and laugenbrezel workflow, but designed for any fermentation-heavy kitchen that needs clarity, consistency, and traceability.

01

Track every batch

Log batch ID, weight, time, and status so your production never disappears into guesswork.

02

Standardize workflow

Document fortifying, re-balling, degassing, washing, and other key actions in one system.

03

Reduce inconsistency

Keep fermentation steady day to day and catch problems before they become product loss.

04

Build for expansion

Designed with future sensor integration in mind, including ESP32-based CO2, temperature, and humidity monitoring.

How it fits the kitchen

FermTrack is not just a recipe companion. It is meant to support a more systematic kitchen by making fermentation and prep visible across the whole process.

  • Create and label batches clearly
  • Track fermentation stages across the day
  • Record what needs to be fortified, re-balled, degassed, or washed
  • Keep production decisions visible instead of locked in someone's head

"Built for cooks and bakers who want consistency without turning the kitchen into paperwork."

Long term, FermTrack can grow beyond batch logging into environmental tracking and hardware-assisted fermentation monitoring.
