Seamus
Since 2016
I had always loved store bought San Francisco style sourdough and wanted to create that. I did not fully comprehend that sourdough was the process and not so much the style. I have always loved baking, handling dough, smell and taste of fermentation, watching the yeast rise dough. I never thought possible I could “create” my own yeast.
Characteristics
Seamus is pretty basic, he is fed using King Arthur bread flour and tap water. He is consistent and almost always responsive. He gets fed 1-2 a week depending on the number of bakes. He lives in the fridge when he is preparing to raise a loaf or two. He has sat neglected for Two months before and with a couple feeds back to normal.
