Listener Question

Gloria asks:

“Hi there. I got the instructions for your sourdough starter through facebook; I have started a culture (several times now) but have some questions:

I have had great growth and bubbles for 3-4 days, then the next addition will end up watery with a “pinkish” color/cover on the top – what is it? is it harmful? what did I do wrong? (too low temp?)

when you say “cover loosely” what does this mean? the jar screw top not screwed on tight? a piece of saran wrap loosely placed over the top or secured tight with rubber band?

where do you find a constant 85 degrees? and how important is it? during the day, I can put the starter in the garage (my house is kept at 80 and I can’t find anywhere – cabinets, closets, etc, that maintains 85), but at night it drops into the 70’s – I live in mid-florida. Thanks for your help….”

Gloria is referring to the instructions found in our Sourdough eBook free sample chapter (which you can get, too, by going here).

        Ok, I sent you the email. If you have any kind of filter… my email might not go through because I attached the picture and it’s pretty graphic. If you can’t see it on your computer on the post, clear your cache and reload the page. The pic title is still “….sheep”. I think your file might have gotten hacked. It is NOT sheep, lol.
