Depuis 2019

I had been baking cookies and cakes for many years and wanted to expand my horizons. Nothing beats a good challenge.

Caractéristiques

John "Crusty" Dough is robust and full of life. He isn't finicky about being thrown in with a bunch of different flours either. In fact, he thrives on diversity. I have recently built levains with rye flour, spelt flour, pasta water & potato water. On each occasion, he rose to the challenge and produced a remarkable loaf of bread.

Méthode de travail

Born on 12/14/2019, John "Crusty" Dough came in to this world as a fully organic 100% hydration starter. I began by discarding all but 30g and mixing twice per day until he had reached maturity 12 days later.

On 2/1/2020, I converted John "Crusty" Dough to only organic whole wheat. Still discarding all but 30g. On 2/14/2020, I made the decision to place the him in cold storage, feeding twice per week and building levains off of what I had been discarding.
