Since Unknown
In Brighton we used to always buy delicious sourdough bread from Infinity Bakery . When we moved to rural France I knew it would be difficult to find good quality sourdough bread (sadly) so I learnt to make it myself.
Characteristics
It's a very stable starter and produces a very mild sweet loaf. It forms a nice even crumb but I have yet to manage to get it to form a really wide open crumb . It is quite mild and yoghurty in it's raw taste.

I bake once a week so I get the starter out of the fridge and feed it twice over the course of a day before using that to make a levain for my bread. I also feed the starter again before putting it back in the fridge
