I saw the tv show "Cooked" and realized that this was something I had to master.

It´s moderately bubbly, doubles in size and floats on cold water 8-9 hours after it is fed. Due to the rye flour, it´s a pinkish brown color and it smells like apple cider.

1
Since I only bake once a week, I keep my starter in the fridge and feed it 1-2 times with 8 hour intervals before baking.
Mix the ingredients and store in a plastic container, covered with a clean cloth, on the countertop for about 8-9 hours, or until it has doubled in size and a teaspoon of it floats in a cup of cold water.

Metodo di lavorazione
1
It took me 10 days to make my sourdough starter.
On the first day, I mixed 1/2 cup of whole grain flour and 1/2 cup rye flour with 1 1/2 cups warm water in a plastic (bpa-free) box. Then I covered the box with a clean cloth and left it on the countertop to ferment until the next morning.

Then, in the morning for the next 9 days, I poured out half the mixture and then repeated step 1.
On day 10, when I got home from work, the bottom of the cloth which I used to cover the plastic container was covered with the starter so I knew that it had risen all the way to the top while I was away and was ready to use. It was also very frothy and bubbly and smelled like apple cider.
