Hello and thank you so much for helping us out trouble shoot our starters.
I started mine about 8 days ago. Yes, it floats and smells so good and sweet but it doesn't rise as fast as 4-8 hours, nor does it get to be twice the size when it does. It does have bubbles in it but not as much as I'd like to see.
I started it with King Arthur all purpose flour and reverse osmosis filtered water. I have fed it every day at the same time.
I talk to it, sing to it and tell it it's going to be delicious and perfect but not much rise : / I keep it in the oven with the light off and with a cheese cloth on it. Should I be feeding it twice a day even though it doesn't rise and recede? or should I keep doing the same thing feeding it every 24 hours? What am I doing wrong?

Thank you in advanced!
Ana
