Beginner bread maker here. OMG, been frustrated with my starter for over a month now thinking it wasn't ready when in actuality it was. Just needed to go to the next step of making the leaven in order to have enough for an actual recipe. Been waiting on my starter to magically grow enough to do it not even understanding....You gave me that Ah ha moment. thank you sooo much.

Oh my gosh I am new to sourdough I've had so much trouble even after watching hundreds of KZbin videos. I have thrown away so many failures. I need to tell you that you are the first person that has explained the whole process that I could completely understand. My starter always looked ready had bubbles it grew but it just didn't grow enough you turned on a light bulb in my head and I thank you so much. I am excited to keep going.

My starter is perfectly active and it is not stiff. It pours out and is slowly runny, it’s perfect. Lots of bubbles all over, very active and you can hear it when you move it around. There’s a lot of opinions out there and I watched countless videos and they all caused a lot of unnecessary frustration and confusion, actually pushed me away from wanting to try. Thankfully I did not give up and am finding with trail and error, experience and time you will find it. Every environment, home and geographical area is different. What works for one person may not work for another. Also everyone has different temps from different ovens. Just think what did people do a long time ago without all that we have now. They figured it out!

I’ve been making sourdough bread since 2016! One day I realized that I had tons of starter in my fridge. Couldn’t bring myself to through them all out. So I decided to share my bread baking techniques with friends and offered a sourdough class! I discovered that I love talking and sharing all the things I’ve learned over the years. It was a success and so I taught more.then a friend convinced me to sell my bread at our local amazing farmers market! Anyway, I say all that to tell you that this idea just happened to come up in my feed this morning! Nothing is by chance! After being so successful baking loaf after loaf, I’ve recently started having problems with my results! I’ve been experimenting with different flours, oven temp, etc. but I think your method of determining the viability of the starter is the key to what I’ve not been fastidious enough to pay attention too! And I’ve never weighed or measured my flour/water/starter ratio!! This could be key to my problem of not achieving a good slash and not getting that ‘eyeliner’ and crusty crust like I used too! Thank you so much! I’m going to link this video and your starter recipe video in my class notes if that’s okay with you! You would also get the credit and more followers! Thank you so much for sharing!! ❤❤

To summarize,: 1) feed your starter to 1:5:5 (levain, flower, water) 2) Use your starter at peak (or a little before peak), never after peak. If you use after peak, acidity developes and the starter becomes liquid. Suggestion for a follow up video: How much time does a 1:5:5 feed takes to develop ? (compared to a 1:2:2 or 1:1:1 often used in professional bakery) and the importance of a strong flour in your levain.

Same! I baked a TON of sourdough and non-sourdough bread through lockdown like everyone else. But since moving to Portugal 3 years ago I hadn't done a ton of baking. Jumped back in recently and have been SO frustrated because the flour we get here is only 9% protein so my starter and leaven have all been active, but extremely limp. I've been searching for answers everywhere and this is the first time I've really gotten the actual information I need to fix my problem. I have since been able to find some French flour here with 11% and a whole wheat from spain with 12% and even though they aren't the ideal, with the info here, I think I'll be able to make them work. Like you said, a light bulb has turned on!

There are more ways to skin a cat I guess. I keep my sourdough in the fridge. It's a 500ML container which. It has around 300 Gr in it. Every time when I bake a bread, I take out 150Gr of the sourdough to put in my dough. I add fressh 75 grams of water and 75 grams of flour. After an hour or so I put the container back in the fridge.Keeping it cool this way is just to slow it down. Then I use the 1-2-3 method. 150Gr soudough, 300Gr water, 450Gr flour (9-10 gr salt). After about 5-6 hours on room temperature this is ready for the night. In the morning I bake it in theDutch oven. Works for me everytime. And my Sourdough is always superhappy when it comes out of the fridge, ready to work.

Very nice. I've had great results using miniscule amounts of crummy watery old fridge starter in large flour/water quantities, say 1:20:20 - You are adding adequate microbes and yeasties without a large amount of watery acidic waste. The levain takes longer, usually overnight, but with such a huge food supply, it blows up nicely and will not peak and withdraw too quickly like a levain made with a larger proportion of starter. So, prep in the evening, by morning it'll be close to peak and ready to go... all temperature dependent of course!

People overcomplicate sourdough. You'll know what to look for after you bake a couple/few dozen breads. And yes, your first loaves are not going to be blue ribbon winners, they may even be unpleasant to eat. Learn from your mistakes. Always make notes of consistency of sourdough, ratios in your mixes, ambient room temperature and humidity and baking temp/time. It will seem daunting at first... but; like I said, get a couple dozen loaves behind you and it will become second nature.

Thanks Ash. I'm just learning all this science regarding the starter from different videos and yours helped a lot to know what to look for 'before' attempting to go for a batch of bread dough to bake. My first one ever failed of course - lol - and I was sad. The next try, using a half batch this time, my dough still didn't double in size and now I'm realizing why (soupy but nicely aged/fermented starter) thanks to your help. I can see the leavening technique would really save everyone a lot of possible grief, waste of ingredients and time due to all the various / changing conditions we have to work with. Something I found useful along the way though was to stir the mixtures with the spoon faced backwards, so things can be blended against the side of the container and also pushed back into it, without getting trapped in the concave part. Have a great day !

I had been making Kamut sour dough for about 3 years. I have the sourdough book. I have the subscription. Buying the masterclass and now the masterclass being reinforced by this video has totally changed my success rate of making sourdough with Kamut. 1- the water… I was using tap water😳 2- my starter and levin were not thick enough. Total game changers for me. Looking at the starter and leaven for the gluten strands was so much better/easier for me. My levain always floated but it didn’t always make a great loaf of bread. 3- Ash,s bread mats👏🏼 4- the pulp banneton . 2- my starter and leaven were not thick enough.

To me starter and levain are basically the same thing. If the recipe calls for 300g of levain/starter, I would do 135g of flour, 135g water and 30g of my original starter. In your example, would you not be using 30g more levain/starter than the recipe calls for…using the 30g starter, 150g,water,150g flour? You did an absolutely great explanation and example of what the levin/starter should look like when it’s ready to use.

Honestly I love this video and the examples you gave. This is exactly what I have been doing storing only a small amount of my starter in a small jar then transfer it to a bigger jar that gives me more room to feed it when I need it in a recipe sometimes I have to feed the starter I transfer twice over 2 days to get the amount of levin that I need for a recipe but keeping a smaller amount in a smaller jar has helped me gain a stronger place to start and have less waste with feedings now that it stays put in the fridge on non baking days. For probably the first 6 weeks I wasted so much flour keeping my jar at room temperature and having to feed the starter twice a day. I know your video was about getting a better rise in your bread but after 2 months for myself it makes sense with maintenance. I'm cheering yeah I did it right after watching this and experiencing a better finished baked loaf, perfect pizza crust, native fry bread and more

One question about your glass jars I’ve seen similar ones from ikea although they have a silicone ring around the lid, I’m wondering if those are the jars you are using except you’ve removed the silicone ring? Is there a reason to remove it? Does it allow yeast in the air to be captured vs a sealed container? Just curious. Thanks again for your amazing content. I would love it if you took your experiments one step further and made the bread from both to show the variance in the final outcome. I’m sure you’ve seen it many times before but for us new to this incredible world of sourdough it may be helpful. Thanks again and Happy new year!

OMG !!! I can't believe how infornative your video has been for me, thank you for just being you or in my case like a sister explaining something to her brother without any nonsense or goofyness etc. I can't believe how many people comment that the language (new terms and meanings) is seemingly your fault i.e., that you're making this too difficult because they don't understand this sourdough business yet. If it was easy it would be boring, not challenging and far from a rewarding experience!. A pilot of a 747 does not master his craft without a lot of trial and error so ... to all you whiners out there...stop blaming the airplane, crash and burn a few times then start applying your own self to the ART of sourdough making that it is. Put your own energy into this endeavor and be thankful that we have such knowledable and experienced coaches available to us all for FREE. Start your google engine and research the terms on your own and let this presenter focus on intelligent topics at an intelligent level so that everyone can grow and move forward in this sourdough learning curve. This is not sourdough 101 (if you even get that !) so maybe you're in the wrong class. Your whining only displays your ignorance and laziness. Grow your own mind!!!

This is a really helpful demonstration, thanks for sharing. I simply have to disregard any hydration percentages in American recipes and tweak it to fit my Norwegian flour, it doesn't translate right. My starters and doughs come out liquid every time, unless I reduce the water by 5-10%. I wasn't sure about the levain, but now I have a better idea.

What do you do with your little jar of starter? Do you keep it in the frig? Do you add flour on top to keep it going?

Back in the day, (30 some odd years ago) I kept way too much starter. It took too much flour to feed. I’ve got it down to 3/4 cup (whole wheat/water). Less waste, less stress, and it’s stronger than ever before.

Also there are a lot of ways to use the discard so one doesn't feel like it's a waste.

I get the concept and it seems super strong. I’ve looked for a video of you using this amount of leaven in an actual recipe and I can’t find one. This makes a large amount. Other recipes I’ve seen call for like 100g of starter. This makes much more then that with the ratio being 30g/150g/150g. Can I please get the recipe where I’d sue this entire jar of leaven. Unless I’m missing something….I’m super new and definitely don’t understand. Thank you!!
