Sourdough starter Posted by Christine on November 24, 2022, 2:38 pm I started a nice batch. Sorry not gluten free but if anyone wants a little you are welcome to it. Just bring a glass jar. Text me 315-107-2609 🙂

Re: Sourdough starter Posted by Valerie D on November 24, 2022, 8:43 pm, in reply to "Sourdough starter" How big a glass jar would you recommend?

Re: Sourdough starter Posted by Christine on November 25, 2022, 10:19 am, in reply to "Re: Sourdough starter" Best to have a pickle jar size or slightly smaller

Re: Sourdough starter Posted by M Morgan on November 25, 2022, 10:38 am, in reply to "Re: Sourdough starter" A tablespoon of starter is enough to start a culture.

Re: Sourdough starter Posted by Christine on November 25, 2022, 12:01 pm, in reply to "Re: Sourdough starter" To start yes🙂

Re: Sourdough starter Posted by M Morgan on November 25, 2022, 2:29 pm, in reply to "Re: Sourdough starter" An acquaintance, a professional baker in B.C. produces possibly as many as 500 loaves daily. He showed me that he uses a ball of starter about the size of a golf ball every day to produce the dough for his following day's bake. If the culture is good, it takes very little, it is kinda like a virus running through an organism. Equally important will be ferment temperature and ferment time, speaking from personal experience.
