Characteristics

The resulting sourdough rye bread I bake the most with my starter has a nice dense, soft, not too moist texture with a mildly sour flavor. The crust is nice and crunchy but too crumbling. The color is rather dark.

Working method

1
When it comes to feeding and getting the starter going before backing, I use the same procedure. I put 10 grams of the old starter into a jar with 50 ml of hand warm water. then I carefully shake it a little so, that the starter dissolves a bit in the water till it gets cloudy. Next I add 50 grams of type 1150 (german type) Rye flour and mix it with a spoon. Afterward it rest/rises for 6-8 hours.
