I made a starter from the recipe that is on this site but not this one. I says to use 2 cups all purpose flour 2 Cups Warm water 1 tablespoon yeast and 1 tablespoon sugar or honey (optional) I followed this recipe. It gives no other directions which was very frustrating. So I am coming here to post my questions. I put these all together then it raised and bubbled the first day the next morning I stirred and left it the next morning I stirred it again. So I started on Saturday it is now Monday this morning I stirred it each morning it has had a layer of alcohol on the top the mixture is very thin has very tiny bubbles. the recipe said it could take 2-5 days. It seems to me that it is not doing anything. Do you know how I can tell when it is ready to use or refrigerate. The other recipe on this site does not tell you anything. I wish I had followed this from the start but when I went to recipes it did not list this one in the recipe area. So do I have to start over with this recipe and if that is the case you should get rid of the misleading recipe on your site. I would call or use chat if it was available at night when I can be on the computer. I read all or your post but non gave me the answers to my questions. using the recipe I started with also I have a lot of starter so to through out 3/4 of it to get it down to the 4 oz starter is a big waste and is the starter I have going to work in unfed recipe if I have to get rid of so much of the starter.
