Maintaining Your Starter

  • Feed daily if keeping at room temperature with 50g of starter, 50g of water and 50g of flour and mix. Your starter should be bubbly and you may see an increase after 6-8 hours.
  • Use any leftover starter for recipes like pancakes, or discard if desired.
  • Feed weekly if storing in the fridge as per the above.
  • Starter can also be frozen and stored for up to 12 months, no feeding required.

Please note: All flours can behave differently and have different water-absorbing qualities. Ideally you want a thick double cream consistancy. If your mixture seems too thick or thin adjust the water/flour amount.
