[Day 3: Sourdough Starter Challenge] Add More Flour + H20

Hello,

Welcome to Day 3 of the Sourdough Starter from Scratch Challenge!

Today is an exciting day because you should be seeing real signs of fermentation — bubbles! — and your mixture may feel lighter than it did 24 hours ago.

Your job today is twofold: first, feed it with fresh flour and water (128 grams of each); second, monitor its progress.

Here's your first video of the day:

If your starter doubles within the next 8 to 10 hours, feed it again.

Here's your second video of the day:

And if your starter doubles again, you can make an offshoot.

Here's your third video of the day:

Note: Do not despair if your starter is not doubling! Continue to monitor it and give it a stir once or twice if you can. You'll continue with the next step tomorrow.

As always, if you have any questions, please ask them here.

Happy Cooking,

Alexandra Stafford
