RE: It's National Sourdough Bread Day in US!

Oh no ... I'm sorry about your sourdough. Hmmm. I don't think you did something wrong.

What I do is to ...

  1. Mix 10g water and 10g flour (5g/5g is fine. Just to mix two in same weight)
  2. Add 10g water and 10g flour to the mixture next day. Stir the starter well.
  3. Continue step 2 for 3-5 days.
  4. Store the starter in fridge.

If you stop feeding sourdough, it stops bubbling as there is no food (wild yeast eats flour and makes Pupser, that's the bubble).

I use a Weck jar or a container with a slice of paper towel in between its lid and body so that it's not closed completely.

I wish I were your neighbor and hang my starter on your door knob ... 😁

THank youuu... I will try again. Your measurements seem much more reasonable, I always felt to waist so much flour with my recipe.
