Weck 744 vs 745 Tulip Jar – Which Size Should You Choose?

• 744 (580 ml): Best for small micro starters + discard storage
• 745 (1 L): Best for maintaining starters + bulk feeding

👉 Many bakers keep both for the perfect setup.

Note: Never seal your sourdough starter with the rubber ring and clamps. Always leave the lid loose to allow airflow, even when the jar is in the fridge.
