Review: Great , but potent - Grew like wildfire , quite a potent sour flavour if you like that, I have put honey in my loaf mix to counter it,instructions dreadful for beginners so here is mine, get a tub or jam jar add the little amount of starter, add 50g water and 50g flour, next day add 100g flour and 100g water, keep going till it measures 500g, remove 300g( save it) so your left with 200g in the jar , now add 200 g water and 200g flour so by day 7 you will have 600g in total, give it a week on the kitchen side adding the same weight of flour and water (same as the starter weight) Right, easy huh YEAH, ok now for problems , water on the top ? Either tip it away or stir back in, its all good, it means your starter is good and hungry and ready for more food ( flour) the smell? Yes quite acid and sour smell, normal... so a recipe for your 1st loaf? Ok 430 flour bread flour 200g starter 70 g warm water ( grams) 20 oil (any)1/2 tsp sugar or honey, 1 tsp salt, in a food mixer add the dry ingredients then add the wet , Mix sugar/ honey into water and starter , as it mixes let it come together, give it 5 minutes, if it’s quite dry add increases of 15 g warm water till it starts looking and feeling soft but not wet and tacky , you must mix for at least 10 minutes, it will be soft and silky and in a ball , oil lightly a bowl and form a nice smooth ball with the mix , add to the oiled bowl and turn it over again and again till lightly coated, cover with cling film and a towel and leave it in the microwave (off) for up to 2 hours to double or more, preheat oven to gas 4/5 340 degree, oil and butter a loaf pan , tip out the dough and lightly knock out the air . Fold it into 3 and press out again and fold into 3 again, seal the bottom and side edges and put into your tin , cover again for it to rise just above it , gently score the top ( I use a stanly knife) bake till it looks good 15/20 minutes turn it out in the oven and give it 7 or more minutes to cook crispy and sounds hollow , and leave on a rack till cold

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Superb quality, a genuinely foolproof sourdough starter.
*by B***I on 21 March 2019*

I've been baking bread for decades, and sourdough has always been one of my favourite loaves. Whilst staying with a friend recently, I suddenly needed to get hold of some mature starter so that I could teach them how make sourdough bread themselves: enter Kombuchaorganic. My starter arrived within 48hrs, and after feeding it twice, it was ready to rock and roll, all bubbly and gorgeous as shown in the seller's photo. After leaving it in the fridge for a couple of hours, I mixed the 80g of starter with 80g of organic rye flour and 80g of tepid water (= 240g of starter) and left it in a warm, cosy spot to do its stuff. The following morning, I added 240g of rye flour and 240g of tepid water (= 720g of starter) and by lunchtime we were making dough to bake the following morning. The bread was good and had that gently tangy flavour that comes from using a rye-based starter. At home, I have a rye starter that's probably seven years old now. There was not much difference in flavour between the 'new' rye starter and my old one; both almost triple in size after feeding and they stay that way for many hours in the cool environment of my pantry (around 12/14°c). When it's ready to use, a sourdough starter should have the appearance and texture of whipped mousse. it's well worth doing a little online research if you have little or no experience with sourdough cultures. Above all be patient; a new starter can easily be affected by the sudden change in temperature and food (the type of flour and quality of water you use will differ from that used at source) during the early stages.
