@SourlottibyAbby

2 жыл бұрын

Hi, water plays a big role in starter making. 1. Tap water contains chlorine, which is antibacterial and can kill off the lactobacillus bacteria we are trying to nurture. So its best to use filtered, distilled or mineral water. 2. Not necessarily, every starter behaves differently. As you can see from the first 4 days my starter could only peak less than 3x. When the starter has no longer in dome and starts to levelled, thats peak. 3. Usually i practice to feed the starter first and allow to rise to double, then only put into the fridge. *this allow the starter to have “extra” food to consume during hibernation. When you remove from fridge, just allow the starter to peak. Continue discard and feed as usual. Hope it helps!

@iluminameluna

2 жыл бұрын

If I can help? 1) No, you can change up the flour at any stage of your feeding. I change my flours depending on what type of bread I'll be making. Sometimes I'll even separate my starter and make fraternal twins. I'll divide my starter into 2 jars and feed each jar 2 different flours for 2 different breads. Then join the 2 afterwards. 2) Not recommended. The acids in the starter can corrode the metal that might be exposed in the lid. Better not take the risk. 3) If you have good quality stainless steel utensils, go right ahead, but if you're not sure they are, see my response to your question above. I hope this helps you, or anyone else. Happy baking!!

Hi, can I check what is the purpose of Day 5 Evening feedback? Is that optional if we want to do maintenance? Or is the evening feeding due to the sourdough starter now peaking much faster so another feed is required?

@SourlottibyAbby

2 жыл бұрын

Hi! Yes you are right. As the starter grows stronger, the food would not be enough for the starter to stay up until next morning. When the food finishes, it will deflates and start collapsing hence causing to acidify and weakens. So we feed at a higher ratio to delay the peak before next feeding.

my sourdough has risen to 2.5x in 7 hours and it's day 2, do i have to feed it again right now or wait until 24 hours pass?
