Tried and failed multiple times until I decided to do more research. Couple recipes didn't cut it. I researched for months and even then I didn't stick to one single recipe.

Caractéristiques

Reliable and sometimes feisty. Knows when I'm happy or sad. I talk to him and handle him with love. If I'm having a difficult day I try to remove myself from the situation and be present. It has the good habit of tripling easily. Sensitive to the type of water I use. It prefers room temp filtered, that has been sitting overnight. Scent ranges from grassy to sour to champagne-like (seasonally).

Ingrédients pour nourrir le levain

My starter lives in the fridge between bakes. I travel for work and husband and son don't follow instructions well. "Ce n'est pas mon truc" has been uttered. When I'm back in town, Spartacus comes out of fridge. When at room temp., I feed it twice at 6-8 hour intervals. The next morning, he is ready to go into my levain! The usual portion (10g) gets fed again during the day I am mixing.
