it is 9:25 pm 12/29 intake: 10mg at 11:50 am; 12/30 intake: 9:09 am; 12/31 intake: 10mg at 11:34 am made some sourdough: notes: i don't quite know how long to wait after feeding before using the starter so far, i've been using it after 4 to 8 hours i think my favorite one so far was right around 6 hours after feeding don't dilute salt in water; add in dry knead for a couple of minutes prior to the initial resting/ autolysis i think this aids in distributing the salt and mixing the two different flours wait and let rest 1 hour fold, 180, fold, 90, fold, 180, fold; repeat the previous step and this step 2 more times for a total of 3 folds lightly wet hands prior to folds and peel with scraper before the first folds i stop wetting hands once the dough starts to pick up easily without sticking and when the dough looks visibly wet using premium potato starch in place of rice flour in the banneton; i just happened have that instead of rice flour i prefer using the banneton unlin
