Since 2016

I am a trained baker and recently decided on focusing on breads. Sourdough is the oldest style of yeast bread.

Characteristics

Living in the Caribbean, I tend to keep my starter in the fridge for at least 12 hours a day, it slows down the fermentation. Giving it a slightly more acidic taste at first, but can be balance after a few warmer temperature feedings. I find that this frequent temperature changes, it is very stable and active more so than usually for a fridge kept starter.
