Guides first, free
Read the whole method before you spend a cent. If it's not for you, no harm done.
Small batches, big bragging rights
Kitchen Side Quests is a small Perth business for people who'd rather make it than buy it.
Fermenting, cheesemaking and sourdough look intimidating from the outside. Most of it comes down to the right bit of gear, a clear method, and knowing what "ready" looks like. That's what every kit and guide here is for.
We started with a kitchen full of jars and friends who kept asking how. Instead of writing the same instructions in group chats, we put the gear and the method in one box, and put every guide online for free so you can read it before you buy anything.
Every quest is chosen to work in a normal home kitchen, with ingredients from a normal shop, in a Perth summer.
What we stand for
Reusable, not disposable
Every kit is gear you'll use again and again, packed in a recyclable box. No single-use pods or refills you're locked into.
Straight about what's inside
We choose and test the tools, write the guides and pack every box in Perth. The tools come from specialist suppliers; we don't pretend otherwise.
