I had an exceptional day attending the sourdough breadmaking course at Redbeard Bakery in Trentham. Lis was a patient, warm and peaceful teacher who was able to include so much into the day. She taught many theoretical, scientific and practical aspects of bread making, with some history thrown in. In a day we made three different types of bread. Be prepared for a pretty hot classroom. Speaking of warmth, Lis, all the staff and particularly the new owner all went well out of their way to make us feel welcome and even nurtured. Absolutely lovely people! With the added morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea, this was a great full-day experience. Their hot-cross-buns were delicious as was the tart we had at lunch. The bread we made all looked and tasted great. Be prepared to take a lot of loaves home to family and friends. I’m feeding my starter and hope to make a loaf or two very soon. Thanks to Lis and the team at Redbeard.

Non-Profit

We bake handmade, authentic sourdough bread & pastries in a 19th century woodfired scotch oven in Trentham, central Victoria. Cafe, tours and classes.

Our authentic sourdoughs are leavened with a natural, wild culture of yeasts and healthy bacteria. We don’t use bakers’ yeast, preservatives or any other additives.

Our loaves are made with organic flour, shaped by hand and baked in a woodfired oven, built in 1891 - one of only a handful of Scotch ovens still operating in Australia.

‘The best bakery in the world. It’s been a privilege to be inside. This is all about heart, passion and a love for making great bread.’ George Calombaris, MasterChef

‘I had RedBeard sourdough for breakfast and it was absolutely delicious. RedBeard is doing a wonderful job to promote the resurgence of authentic sourdough and artisan woodfired baking.’ Maggie Beer, legendary cook and restaurateur

‘It’s relaxed and charming, the location is gorgeous and their bread is fantastic.’ The Age
