My second sourdough starter

This was my second sourdough starter, had to order another one after my wife accidentally knocked the original (that was going so well) and it smashed on the kitchen floor

Didn’t get on with this particular starter.

I have been making sourdough for over two years but, after moving house, needed a new starter. I previously used Lakeland’s and although there was some day to day variation, I made dozens of good loaves. With yours, I just couldn’t get a good loaf after several attempts.Plenty of bubbles in sponge and aerated dough, but the loaf consistency went from firm, after kneading to sticky and unmanageable after proving. This didn’t hold up and I had dense flat loaves (tasty) but fit for thin toast. I’m using same flour (Canadian wheat) and technique as before. I’m going back to what works for me. Surprised the yeast would so utterly change loaf consistency.

Hope you had more success but glad we got to the bottom of the issue and the dough was overproofed. It can take some experimentation with different strains.
