Chirp chirpā¦gzz.
I just made 2 batches of pretzel dough for tomorrow.
A batch of pizza dough for the week.
And a batch of dough for a loaf tomorrow sourdough is the dank!!!
Yalls starts didnāt die did they???
Whereās the bread and the sourdough food pics people!!!
Ok, the deed is done! And its aliveā¦
ā¦and hungry!
Question:
A. Should I cut in half and feed the original amount of flours to it new weights half?
B. Should I cut it back to the original amount(150 grams of three flours and 150g of water), and then feed 150gram of each(300 total)?
C. Or should I cut it back to 75 grams and feed what?
Any suggestions are welcomed.
Poor some out, you could leave maybe 25 grams of whatās left in there. Then add say 30 water and 30 flour. An equal amount of both to feed. Be aware it will rise. So measure accordingly to your container for your start. Also if you want to make something you could use the Discard. And do the same thing in another jar, then once active. Bake with it. How long had it been alive or is this the first feed?
Just looked again. You have a big jar you could do 75 water 75 flour. And just keep a bit of your start. It will spread throughout your āfeedā you gave itā¦
Iām using a quart jar.
Empty jar weight = 425
With first addition = 725
Current weight = 722
Though weāve more than doubled in volume.
Whatcha think now?
If Iām right you have 300 g of start. If this is the case Discard 200. And add 100 g water 100 g of flour. Done and fed.
Correct. Thank you.
I will reduce to 1/3 and add that weight back.
Is this 48 hour starterās discard have enough life to make use of? If so, you got a quick or easy recipe for me? Lol
It needs a week of feeding and activity like bubbles. In order for it to be ready for baking.
Thatās what I thought.
Just didnāt wanna waste it. Guess itās going to the compost bin or the critters!
Thank you again!
No problem,! Keep it up man!.
I take my discards sometimes, and just start a new starter jar, maybe 4, then you can experiment with temps, %ās of feed, etcā¦and have a whole lot around to do whatever you want;)
Thatās actually what Iām doing now. I canāt seem to get rapid or consistent growth. Iām sure most of my house is to cold. Just gotta find the right spot. Maybe itāll end up on the cable box like when I germinate seeds, lol.
Sometimes it takes a bit for it to get going. I help things out by putting my starter in a warm spot of the grow room š¤
I was thinking that also! But it aināt much betterā¦
Farl, I swapped out 20 gās of yeast for 10, and added 100 gās hard winter wheat starter I made.
Butterās
Super easy!!
I just made a loaf up,ā¦!! Sourdough we go!. Well see how it is. Iām going to let it rise for a few hours then fold, let rise again. And bake. Iām hungry for some bread. This should be sweet,ā¦ or may I say Sour.
My fridge heats it up on top of it good. Itās a good place for it. Atleast for me.
