Hello, This is my first time making a sourdough starter, and I have followed your instructions and have been feeding my starter for about 10 days now. I keep my starter in a glass mason jar on a windowsill, lightly covered with plastic. My starter bubbles nicely, however I do not notice any increase in volume. I have tried waiting longer before feeding it, but that did not make a difference. I am living at an elevation of almost 8,000 ft, but have only been living here a few months and have no prior experience baking at high altitudes. Are there any adjustments I should make due to the altitude? I have made the sourdough waffles and pizza crusts with the discard, and it definitely has a sourdough flavor, I just don't know why the starter is not doubling in size. Thank you for your help!
