- Sourdough Culture Elaboration
Here is how to make sourdough starter from scratch. It usually takes us about 5 days to make a culture strong enough to bake bread with. It may take a longer time when you try this at home. The key to keep the culture warm at all time.
See the tutorial video for more info and visuals.
Day 1
Dark Rye 200g
Water 240g
Maintain 85F for 24 hours
Day 2
Dark Rye 150g
Flour 50g
Water 240g
Culture from Day 1 100g
Maintain 85F for 24 hours
Day 3
First Feeding:
Dark Rye 100g
Flour 100g
Water 200g
Culture from Day 2 100g
Maintain 85 for 8-12 hours.
If doubled in size in 8-12 hours, move onto second feeding.
If not, continue fermentation for ~12 more hours.
Day 3
Second Feeding:
Dark Rye 100g
Flour 100g
Water 200g
Culture from Day 3 First Feeding 100g
Maintain 85 for 8-12 hours.
The mixture should develop some lactic acid aroma and good gas production at this point.
Day 4
First Feeding:
Dark Rye 50g
Flour 150g
Water 200g
Culture from Day 3 100g
Maintain 85 for 8-12 hours.
If the culture matures within 8-12 hours, it is ready to be treated as a starter.
Starter Feeding
Flour 100g
Water 100g
Starter (matured culture) 30g
Maintain 70-75F for 8-12 hours.
Continue to feed twice a day. I’m when not using, place matured in the refrigerator for a long storage without feeding.
Don’t have time for this? You can get some starter at SFBI! Just give us a heads up and we will reserve some for you. Starter is also available at our retail bakery in SF, Thorough Bread and Pastry
I’m curious why you use rye flour when eventually you’re going to all white wheat?
Please tell me, it turns out sourdough like in a bakery Tartine (Chad Robertson) or the sourdough culture has a sour taste? How do you determine the amount of water for the starter culture?What kind of scheme is there?
