I just wanted to comment on how very helpful this entire website is and how thorough your directions are, plus the comments help trouble shoot!! I started a sourdough culture from scratch with your flour's last week and after a few slow days (and I was really sure the entire time that I was not going to have the proper reaction) I diligently followed your instructions on how to feed, measuring, consistency, and temperature to one day I woke up to the starter overflowing on my counter!! (ok so my jar was too small but I still felt triumphant!!) I have never baked a sourdough from scratch (I have worked in several kitchens for years but they just dont make their own breads, so sad) and I have to say now that Ive made the loaf, and pretzels and buns with the "unfed" starter I am so happy I took the time to cultivate this and absolutely need to buy some of those starter jars bc nothing else is similar in a regular store!! LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SITE!!
