Characteristics
This sourdough is very active, but lazy at the same time. It grows fast and constantly, but it does not grow enough, it does not make many bubbles and feels like tired :) But you can treat it very badly, forget it at room temperature for days or in the fridge too, and it will never die. It's The Immortal.

Keep at room temperature or better at 28°C until it reaches the maximum expansion and starts to collapse. At that point you can use it for baking or for feeding once again.
Working method

I refresh the liquid levain twice or three times a day, keeping it at around 28°C if possible, or room temperature (21°C) if I need more time (eg. nightly rest)
