This is a great gluten free sourdough starter and makes a beautiful loaf of bread! However, I wasted almost a huge amount of flour trying to get this started. The directions say to use ‘cool’ water when it should be ‘warm’ water. We are in the Midwest and we either have the a/c on in the summer and although we have the heater running in the winter our home is never warm enough to get this going. I just made a new batch with warm water AND put it in the oven with just the light on. I fed it once before bed and woke up to a 32 oz jar overflowing with bubbly starter! Also, I either daily feed with 2 Tablespoons flour & 3 Tablespoons warm water to slow the accumulated amount or use discard in brownies (heavenly, fudgey cut in to 1” square bites), cinnamon rolls, etc. This flour is just too expensive to waste! It would be great to be able to buy in bulk as my family can not eat gluten bread and we go through a lot of flour. Thank you!
