Since 2017

After many years of bread baking adventures, I decided that I wanted to make my own sourdough and be able to one day boast a culture that I have kept alive for many years that I could possibly pass along to someone else

Characteristics

Beautiful bubbles when fully mature. Mild vinegar odor in the morning before feeding with strong notes of berries or wine.
