Hi Rudy, whole wheat starters ferment faster than white starters. If you feed your starter frequently - preferably daily - and keep it a little stiffer than these instructions call for, you can keep a 100% whole wheat starter going. The danger is that if you don't feed your whole wheat starter regularly, the oils in the whole wheat can go rancid. The starter itself can mold.~Jaydl@KAF
