Características
I have two cultures which behave differently. One is twice a slow as the other. When making a bread I use most often the fast one, which takes about 4-6 hours to come to full bubble strength after adding flour and water. I always test the readiness by flotation in water. When it does that I use the required quantity of starter for the bread and leave the rest for a (well-deserved) repose.

I mostly use untreated Canadian strong bread flower which I get from Waitrose and refresh the starter every 24 hours. It has 100% hydration. I use bottled spring water.
The amounts I add are not precise, but roughly 100g each at each step.

Comentarios
The bread has a good rise, a good distribution of the mie and a good crust, and is not highly acidic, rather sweet tasting. The mie has a nice gloss.
