Depuis 2014

I became interested in the idea of a wild yeast starter after talking to my brother in law about his bread baking experiences.

Caractéristiques

This is a liquid levain. I find it much easier to use then stiff dough starters. The Whole Wheat Flour really seems to help it stay active. I only bake 1 - 2 times a week. I have to bring it out of the fridge and to room temperature and refresh it 1 - 2 times each 12 - 24 hours to get it really active before preparing to bake. I haven't had a lot of success with all white flour starters.
