Working method
1
Combine flour and water in bowl. Cover loosely and let sit at room temp (mine is 22c) for 24h. I let my tap water sit on the bench overnight to allow chlorine to evaporate.

Discard down to 50g and add flour and water. Mix well and leave to sit on bench for 24h.
3
Repeat step 2 for 6-7 days
4
Now use 50g organic whole wheat flour and 50g white. Feed every 12 hours for two days. This is when the fermenting activity really cranks up.
