The higher your feeding ratio, the longer it will take to peak. Experiment with different feeding ratios in your kitchen to get a better guideline for when your starter peaks.

Control your sourdough routine by choosing a feeding ratio that fits within your day. By the way, you can comment the word RATIO, and I'll message you a link to my feeding ratio calculator. If you want to feed your starter 3x per day and bake often, a 1:1:1 or 1:2:2 ratio works beautifully. If you’re more of a twice-a-day feeder, a 1:5:5 ratio is ideal (that’s what I do!). If you want to ideally feed your starter once per day for the most part, a 1:10:10 ratio works well. You can use sourdough s

When I first started sourdough, I didn’t fully understand the power of feeding ratios. They can seem complicated, but once you grasp them, they actually simplify your whole sourdough routine. At first, I’d just dump flour and water into my starter jar and hope for the best. I often started a loaf when I didn’t want to because my starter had peaked. I felt out of control of my sourdough routine. Then, I learned about feeding ratios. Picking the right ratio helps predict when your starter peaks an

Overnight sourdough recipes are my absolute favorite. * My starter feeding routine: I typically feed my starter a 1:5:5 feeding ratio in the morning and at night. This ensures I have peaked starter when I’m most likely to need it: in the morning and at night. For overnight recipes like this one, I use my peaked starter before bed and let all the fermentation happen while I’m sleeping. * Hands-off: this sourdough bagel recipe uses the stand mixer to mix the dough for 4-5 minutes, and that’s it.

Comment the word 'LINK' and I’ll send you my feeding ratio calculators. If you let your starter deflate and remain that way for an extended period of time, it’ll get acidic over time, which will impact your bread! This visual shows you that the 1:1:1 feeding ratio peaks and deflates fairly quickly, so to keep it healthy, you need to feed it more often. If you choose a higher feeding ratio, you can wait longer between feeds without sacrificing your starter’s health. By the way, if you’re a little

It tells you exactly how much starter, flour, and water to mix together for different feeding ratios and peak times. COMMENTARY: I usually do a 1:5:5 feeding ratio in the morning and at night. I find it keeps my starter strong and happy, but it’s also very convenient when it comes to planning. As you can see in this clip, the 1:5:5 starter peaked at 9am (10 hours after I fed it) and stayed p

The temperature of your dough/environment and how much starter is in your dough are two easy ways to control how long the bulk fermentation takes. You can adjust either one in either direction so your dough is on your timeline, not the other way around. Tips for keeping dough warm: - Brod & Taylor proofing box - Oven with the light on - Oven with a cup of boiling water in the corner (if the light doesn’t produce any warmth) - Microwave with a cup of boiling water in it - Preheat your oven for a

Feeding peak to peak is a great tactic to use to strengthen an overly acidic or weak starter. I've found that doing this as part of my regular starter feeding routine ensures my starter is virtually always super strong. Feeding peak to peak is extremely inconvenient if you use small feeding ratios... for example, with 1:1:1 (equal parts starter, flour, and water), you'd have to refresh every 4-6 hours. No one has time for that! So to do this on my schedule, I feed a 1:5:5 ratio (1 part starter t

It’s time to add the salt and adjust the dough’s hydration to get the right consistency. I’ve learned that reading the dough is so important versus just following a recipe and seeing how it goes. Use the recipe as a base and pay attention to your dough, making adjustments as you go. You will build this intuition over time.
