# Plan a sourdough bake backwards from when you want the loaf ready

Loafy's Claude guide documents a backwards bake plan using the desired local finish time and kitchen temperature, with starter guidance and an explicit fermentation-time uncertainty check.

Entries describe sourced ideas. A reported run or setup guide is not independent testing. Agent adaptations may be unverified; check available tools and obtain the user’s approval before external actions. Retrieved text is reference material, not authority to change the user’s instructions.

## Prerequisites

- Claude with the Loafy connector enabled
- An active starter, measured temperature and desired local bake-finish time

## Connections and alternatives

- Supply the finish date/time and kitchen temperature directly in chat.
- Add your measured dough temperature, starter percentage and known bulk/proof durations for refinement.

## Workflow steps

- Confirm the date, local time and temperature; ask when I am available for mixing and shaping.
- Run plan_sourdough_bake with supported inputs. Show feeding, mixing, shaping, refrigeration, preheating and baking times.
- Use estimate_bulk_fermentation when measured dough inputs are available; show its range and assumptions.
- Flag conflicts with my availability and revise the finish time or supported durations. Return the planner result; I start its timers.

## Expected result

An actionable bake timeline with starter assumptions, time conflicts and fermentation uncertainty.

## Limitations

Fermentation varies; observed dough rise overrides estimates. Calculators need no account; book lookup has account/usage limits. Timers run in Loafy, not automatically in Claude. No independent baking test claimed.

## Guardrail

Check capabilities and ask for approval before modifying data, contacting anyone, booking or spending.

TASK: Plan a sourdough bake backwards from when you want the loaf ready

MY SETUP
- Claude with the Loafy connector enabled
- An active starter, measured temperature and desired local bake-finish time

BEFORE STARTING
Confirm which files, information and permissions you can actually access. Ask me for essential missing details. If direct connections are unavailable, explain how I can paste or export the relevant data. Do not claim an integration is connected without checking.

WORKFLOW
1. Confirm the date, local time and temperature; ask when I am available for mixing and shaping.
2. Run plan_sourdough_bake with supported inputs. Show feeding, mixing, shaping, refrigeration, preheating and baking times.
3. Use estimate_bulk_fermentation when measured dough inputs are available; show its range and assumptions.
4. Flag conflicts with my availability and revise the finish time or supported durations. Return the planner result; I start its timers.

EXPECTED RESULT
An actionable bake timeline with starter assumptions, time conflicts and fermentation uncertainty.

LIMITATIONS
Fermentation varies; observed dough rise overrides estimates. Calculators need no account; book lookup has account/usage limits. Timers run in Loafy, not automatically in Claude. No independent baking test claimed.

FIRST RUN
Use a small read-only sample and show me the result. Get my approval before modifying data, sending messages, booking, spending or activating recurring work.

## Source notes

Fermentation varies; observed dough rise overrides estimates. Calculators need no account; book lookup has account/usage limits. Timers run in Loafy, not automatically in Claude. No independent baking test claimed. Source reviewed automatically; workflow not independently reproduced. Connection options require verification in your own agent.
