Since 2018
I had tasted great bread that was made sourdough and I wanted to learn it. I had baked with yeast more than 30 years.
Characteristics
It is now quite strong and bakes all kind of wheatbreads and also sweet breads. I use wholemeal in part of my dough.

This sourdough starter was made about a year ago from our old rye sourdoughstarter, that is at least 100 years old. My husbands greatgrandmother brought it from her home after getting married. I have been feeding it with wheatmeal since March 2018. Of course the old starter is still alive and used five days a week when we bake crisp rye bread in bakery.
