Your average length of sour Dough bread seems to be a little over five and one half inches. I want to know if this toster will accomodate that length

The slice of sour dough should be okay but it may be a tight fit. You might have to slice off a sliver of the piece of bread.

By depressing the toaster level, as you would to toast bread, and sticking a ruler (a wooden one!) down into the toaster slot, I measured 5 in. from the bottom of the slot to where the top of a 5 in. slice of Dough bread would rest. We toast smaller slices of bread however.

It should be fine; after all you will be washing the dough off ( I hope.) I bought the bigger size for when I make a big batch of dough (2 loaves.) I think the handle on this one is a bit fat, and I have big hands.

No, I wouldn't think so. I buy this California Sour Dough bread and I have to cut the slices in half to get them to fit.

Those measurements are right, except the depth is more like 2 1/4", but for me it is the perfect size for sandwich bread. My bread rises higher than the top to be nice and rounded. It would be about a 1 1/2 lb. loaf.

I plan to try it and I'll be happy if it's a different strain than S.F. starter yeast. I've used S.F. starters twice now and I didn't care for the taste of them that much (though I normally love all sourdough bread).

Mine measures a little less than 10" (more like 9 3/4" tall) tall and close to 5" left to right per side of square. A regular size loaf of bread fits just right.

I haven't had that problem. It is 5 inches wide which is big enough for the size pan I use. The length doesn't seem to matter. I slice the bread with an electric knife about 1/4 inch thick and then push the bread through and continue until there are several slices, then bag those and continue. I love this product because I like thin bread, and I can make the slices any thickness I choose.

Yes and I made it from the Lekue recipe and it was a bit dry. I re did it and added some yeast and it was fine. I have found the bread maker very useful as I love fresh bread but the supplied recipes from Lekue are not my favorites. I use several out of the book "Joy of cooking" and they all work great. I hope this helps. It seems everyone likes bread a different way. The best advice I can give it measure well, write doen what you dom and when you find really good results you will have the information to duplicate it.Thanks,Joe

Hey, Jake. Great toaster for the price. Ours is about 1 month and it is doing well. Sometimes a little dark. Wife uses one side and I use other. The usable length is 5-3/8" and I like rye bread and the standard slice fits just fine.Good shopping .

The slots appear to be about 1-1/4" x 5", so your bread would need to be slightly below those dimensions.

Slots are about 6 inches long. Bread slice itself should probably be a little less.

I modified mine,the sides were too low. I just spread the center apart. The center now is 2 inches and the sides are 1 1/2 inches. Was easy to do. I am guessing the original measurements were probably 2 1/2 in the center and 1 inch on the sides. First time I used it the sides were too low. Works fine for me now. Love it, notheing sticks to it. made about 12 loaves in it so far. Italian bread. Yummy.

I, too, would like to know the diameter of the base of the pan, the sides look slanted in the picture? Hoping for 8" to bake no-knead bread inside...Can anyone help? Thank you!

This a pretty big dough hook and it depends on the size of your sourdough starter jar. I used it with a six quart container to make my dough and it is the perfect size for mixing my dough.

I measured the slots length opening and it is exactly 5 1/2 inches long. The whole grain bread that we use fits fine and is a little over 5 inches long and standard width. We have toasted hot dog rolls and the length of the bun fits all the way down and toasts nicely. A slice of bread that measures 5 1/2 inches may be a little tight fit. But we love the toaster and would recommend it.

I measured it for you from inside edge to inside edge of the slot. The slot is slightly under 5-3/4". You'd have to hack a 1/2" off your bread to make sure it fits comfortably. This one has bigger slots than most but not quite as big as you want.But seriously, how often do you toast 6" bread? It's a really good toaster as toasters go.

Hello. It will work fine with sourdough. It will not be in contact with the dough long enough for corrosion to occur during mixing. I wash mine after use and it is not a problem. Hope that helps.
