Sourdough is the best. I've been making my own starter for many years. I've learned that pouring off the alcohol rather than mixing it in can prolong the starter's life, especially if you are away and unable to feed it for a while. I have excellent results using equal parts water and flour; I do not use tap water. Sourdough blueberry pancakes are amazing! Try using unfed starter for your next batch. For those of you who may wonder, the King Arthur catalog and website are wonderful. Shipping is fast and the products are always as promised, top quality. I've picked up a lot of good information here, thank you.
