The process is theraputic, I have a passion for feeding people good food and loved the process and at such a low cost. A Sense of achievement when you see the final product and the joy on people faces when you give them the bread! So simple yet so gratifying

Characteristics

She just LOVES the freshly milled wholegrain rye I feed her, she gets large bubbles but is a very thick mixture. she takes a lot longer to peak than my white starter, but lasts a lot longer than the white. She has a fruity aroma, sometimes on the sour side. At other times she has a mild almost non existant aroma.

Discard excess, Add tap water, mix the water in with my hands and then add the freshly milled Western Australian grown rye flour. Milled in our Billy2 stone mill

I am just loving being able to bring families and communities together through the basic sharing of bread together, it doesn't matter what your bread looks like ultimatley, if it brings you Hygge and joy and tastes great then my job is done. If you don't like the look of your bread I always say eat with your eyes closed - it will taste devine. Don't be scared to try it out, its very hard to kill your starter. I am happy to help you get started and happy to continue sharing Ryvina around!

I just love the process of making bread for others, its such a blessing being able to bring communities and familys together through the simple act of sharing bread together and help create Hygge and joy to your family! There is no such thing as bad bread, don't be scared to try it out, so theraputic. Don't worry what your bread looks like, if its not picture perfect, it will still taste great. I always say if you don't like the look of your loaf, eat with you eyes closed! It will taste fantastic!
