I love that something complex can be created with only three raw ingredients.
Caractéristiques
My starter is fed using a T85 red wheat flour from Cairnspring Mills, and rye flour from Fairhaven Mill. I use 80% wheat and 20% rye. It has a nice milky sweet smell right after feeding, and a pungent cheesy smell when ripe.

Mix vigorously. Summers in the pacific northwest are mild. If the temperature is above 25 degrees Celsius, I leave the starter in a cabinet in the fridge. Otherwise, I leave the starter in the over with the oven light on during the day. At night I let the starter rest at whatever the ambient temperature in the kitchen is. This ranges from about 17 to 22 degrees Celsius throughout the year.
