Just curious really. I don’t bake very often, so sometimes I question why on earth I keep a starter alive. If it didn’t take a couple of weeks to get a new one going…

    That’s gotta be down to the exact mix of bacteria and yeast you have. I’ve had that with starters before, but my current one is a champ in the fridge. How much volume of starter do you keep? I only ever have about 60 grams going. To make bread, I always just step it up once or twice. That way I never have to discard anything
