Feeding Your Sourdough Starter

I just learned how to make sourdough bread and decided to share what I've learned here. Please comment with any tips you have.

These instructions assume that you have a starter to start with. 

Remove starter from fridge.

Place bowl on scale. PRESS ZERO.

ADD 113g of starter to bowl.

PRESS ZERO.

ADD 113g of King Arthur Unbleached Flour to bowl.

PRESS ZERO.

ADD 113g of room temperature filtered water to the bowl.

PRESS ZERO. 

MIX.

POUR mixture into Sourdough Starter Glass Jar.

DISCARD REMAING STARTER.

Let stand out at room temperature from 4-6 hours or longer until it at least doubles.





From Easy Sourdough Bread Recipe.:

Feed your starter. 

“Remove your starter from the fridge, and mix together equal parts starter, water and flour. Discard the remaining starter. I like to keep a discard jar in the fridge that I add to every week. Let your fed starter rise until doubled in size, about 4-6 hours.”
