    So I packed up my car and left Brooklyn but had no room for any of my sourdough baking equipment... Oh yeah, I also left my sourdough starter back in the studio!

    Mike, just so you know, you are my favourite cooking teacher. You keep it short and simple, and tell us about how things work with food. This helps me figure out my own cooking path better. Years ago, as an able-bodied person, I used to make my own recipes. Now that I'm disabled, I hadn't really cooked much in years. I've been getting back to it, and trying new things, and your instructional videos have been so helpful.

    I'm currently on day 3 of making my sourdough starter and I'm so excited! What a fun project, I can't wait to make my own bread
    Edit for a tip: by the end of day 3, my starter had already more than doubled in size from that morning, but I think I was following the video too closely because I waited the full 24 hours to feed it like Mike did and then by the morning of day 4, it had deflated massively :( I think my started was a little bit ahead of MIke's so I should have fed it on day 3 at night. I don't know enough to know if this is a bad thing or okay, but I'll update this comment if I remember

    I've noticed you have different processes in some different videos. In one you add the starter to water and dissolve it before the autolyse process, but in this one, and a few others, you autolyse and then add starter. Is one of these better than the other?
    Big fan of the videos, you really put it all together in a way that made it simple for me to understand, and got my first really nice sourdough loaf last week! Working on number 2 tonight.

    Few things,When you are starting, you shouldn't close the lid when you make sourdough. Keep the air flowing, just use cheesecloth to cover the jar. Second, don't put it to fridge, keep your sourdough in about 25degrees Celsius (thats about 75-80F). After first week, you can close it and store it in fridge safely.
    And when you have excess sourdough you can make kvass :) or polish soup called żurek. Check it out!

      This is what I'm doing. Although I'm not getting much rise, I'm seeing bubbles and smelling a fruity sourness (on day 4). About to do my daily feed. From day 7 I'll probably put it in the fridge and probably reduce the feed schedule.

      Don't be alarmed when on day 4 or so it smells like puke. It'll pass. Put the starter in a clean quart canning jar and continue. Changing the vessel it's in helps a ton. It's taking on good and bad bacteria. The good will finally over run the bad and it will smell heavenly from then on.

    Edit: My loaf is looking beautiful. I'm letting it cool and then I'm going to taste sourdough for the first time.
    Edit: 4 years later. After I caught it sounds started tasting like rotten bread. Gave my starter to a friend hoping my sense of taste would come back someday. It molded so have to try again from scratch. Here's hoping

      Why not just buy a starter from King Arthur flour? I've tried twice to make a sourdough starter and ended creating a monstrous bacteria that will eat anything and anything in any quantity and still be hungry. No matter how much I fed my own starter even at 3 times a day it still had an acetone smell. I bought one from KAF and it was already over 100 years old and fully grown.
