Where is the diy sour dough started kit made?

This DIY Sourdough Bread Kit was made in the US.

I have the kit, but not instructions. Where can I get a copy of the instructions to make my bread??

Ingredients 10 ounces white bread flour 10 ounces whole wheat bread flour 20 ounces water Directions A note on flour. Try to use the same flour for your starter as you do for your final bake. That means if you are looking to primarily bake whole wheat bread, build a whole wheat flour starter. We like the versatility that a half-white/half-wheat starter gives us.A note on measurements. A fluid ounce of water basically equals an ounce by weight. So when measuring water, use whatever’s easiest. Day 1: In a 2-quart glass container, add 2 ounces white bread flour, 2 ounces whole wheat bread flour, and 4 ounces water. Stir until fully combined into a thick dough. Cover with butter muslin or a clean kitchen towel and secure with a rubber band. Let sit in a warm area (ideally around 70° F) for 24 hours. Day 2: Uncover your starter. It won’t look like much yet (just a thick dough that might be starting to dry). Add an additional 2 ounces white bread flour, 2 ounces whole wheat bread flour, and 4 ounces water. Stir until fully combined into a thick dough. Recover and let sit in a warm area (ideally around 70° F) for another 24 hours. Day 3: Uncover your starter. Add an additional 2 ounces white bread flour, 2 ounces whole wheat bread flour, and 4 ounces water. Stir until fully combined, the dough should feel lighter and more airy than the first two days. Recover and let sit in a warm area (ideally around 70° F) for another 24 hours. Day 4: Uncover your starter. At this point you’ll likely see some bubbles in the dough and it should have a pleasant yeasty aroma. Add an additional 2 ounces white bread flour, 2 ounces whole wheat bread flour, and 4 ounces water. Stir until fully combined. Recover and let sit in a warm area (ideally around 70° F) for another 24 hours. Day 5: Uncover your starter. By day 5 it should be bubbly and airy and smell yeasty and slightly sour. Add an additional 2 ounces white bread flour, 2 ounces whole wheat bread flour, and 4 ounces water. Stir until fully combined into a bubbling dough. Your starter is now ready to use and will keep getting better with age.

does this come with the book as well?

I thought this was deceiving as well and would have bought a similar kit elsewhere for less $$. Really disappointing but I suppose I could have read the description a little more closely.

That is not a book in the picture, only the box. The kit includes: Bamboo Proofing Basket Linen Proofing Basket Cover Oak/Stainless-Steel Bread Lame 5 Stainless-Steel Lame Replacement Blades in Leather Holder Beech Wood Bench Scraper Plastic Flexible Dough Scraper

Does a qt jar fit in here or just a pint jar?

A quart jar of starter dough should fit in the basket. A 9" basket can accommodate up to 2lbs of dough.
