Please help. I can't find a good way to dispose of my extra starter. It's like cement so I can't put it down the drain, it's too messy for the trash can. I've tried putting it into gallon sized plastic zip bags left open a bit but they expand and I fear an explosion. What do people do with the extra from feeding everyday? I'm on day 8 and my bread didn't taste so sourdough-y, more like a really good tasting bread, so I kept feeding the starter. Is there something that I can put into it to stop the bubbles and expansion when I dispose of it into the trash? Please don't laugh. I love good sourdough and can't buy it where I live so I have to get this done.
I would suggest to give our Baker's Hotline a call. We can go into more detail about what you can do about your discard and starter!-Jon 855 371 2253
