I was wondering with my starter: it is very bubbly and smells nice and yeasty, but has never been observed rising. I made the starter using a part of my mother then fed it daily every morning using one cup water and flour, discarding half beforehand. It does not pass the float test. I have been feeding it with organic unbleached red wheat flour (kirkland) and tap water. I started it around a week ago. Is it suitable for bread making? I fed it at around 11 AM.
