A drat good video. I'm running low on the dough so I pulled my starter out of the fridge, fed it and now it's going nuts again. I've seen a few recipes where people use yoghurt to start their starter, will it work if you go the other way around and drop some of your starter dough into some milk to make yoghurt?

AEMINAL posted:beautiful, did you use corn starch on the outside? Nup, no corn starch. I followed the steps in that video with a fidelity usually only observed in the severely autistic. The only thing I missed is that his reference to "strong flour" translates to "bread flour" in the US. Which probably seems obvious to veteran breadsmiths, but I used all-purpose, and while beautiful on the outside, the inside was more dense than I had expected. Still highly edible. Also, goony confession: After four disastrous attempts at cultivating wild yeasts to make a starter, I ended up buying a batch from Amazon. I named mine Victor, and it's thriving with daily feedings. AEMINAL posted:i've been feeding mine daily for weeks now. how long does it take to revive a fridged starter? I stuck Victor in the fridge when I went on vacation for a week, and just resumed room-temperature daily feeding when I got back. I'd say it was fully revived in about 4 days. That culture is hardy stuff.

AEMINAL posted:i've been feeding mine daily for weeks now. how long does it take to revive a fridged starter? It seemed like it could have been ready to go after just one feeding, maybe because it's hot as heck here at the moment. I'm giving it another feed today before making bread tomorrow though. SpookyTurtle posted:Also, goony confession: After four disastrous attempts at cultivating wild yeasts to make a starter, I ended up buying a batch from Amazon. I left my flour/water mixture uncovered in my bedroom so I'm assuming yeast from my body moved in as flakes of my skin and hair and whatever fell into it. I tell this to everyone who tries my bread.

I keep my starter in a closet above my fridge, there's a bunch of extra spill heat from the compressor there so it super thrives. Also a good place to put your dough for rising if you want a less sour bread, fast rise = less of the sour lactic bacteria stuff. Feeding/mixing your starter daily also helps with this because the bacteria doesn't like oxygen. Made some dough before going to bed last night, it's so easy with a kitchen scale! Takes like 5 minutes. Going to bake it later today

Sorry about your gross rear end loaf. I tried to copy the YouTube man and aside from having dough stuck to everything it turned out nice.

Yeah I think there was something wrong with my starter, since it didn't really rise when I left it out, and it didn't double in size during step 3 of the NYT recipe. I still saved my starter so I'll be trying again.. maybe I'll look at the video to see where I went wrong

dhamster posted:http://imgur.com/fBF9rFV lmfao im dyin ova here aww, keep trying. some advice: looks like you didnt let your starter feed for long enough, feed it daily with a 3/4th a cup of flour and enough lukewarm water to make it doughy, but not runny. also when you feed it again pour half of it out. be sure to have plastic wrap over it and store it in a warm place use whole wheat flour, it has more nutrients and it will thrive on the stuff. when its ready you should be able to see holes all up in it, so use a mason jar here's what whole wheat starter looks like when its ready this one is a little dry, i'd add a tad more water. kinda like a very thick pancake batter

http://i.imgur.com/mW3fPRv.jpg This is what my starter looks like now, I put it in the fridge a couple days ago after I took some of it for dough but I took it out again and fed it last night.

dhamster posted:http://i.imgur.com/mW3fPRv.jpg ohh, dont keep it in the fridge, thats for when you wanna store it. you only feed a fridge starter weekly and it wont work for baking right out of the fridge when you're preparing to bake you need to take it out and feed it daily for 2-3 days, while it sits in room temperature, in order for it to be active enough to rise bread just keep it somewhere dark and room temperature, the yeast colony kills any bacteria/mold and will be fine

Yeah, what AEMINAL said. Treat your starter like the living thing it is - storing it in the fridge is like putting it in cryostasis, and really slows down its metabolism. You want it all warmed up to room temperature to encourage lively feeding and breeding. Here's mine, bubbling happily away, eating and farting: There are lots of opinions on optimal micro-farming strats, and here are some I've discovered:

I think the problem was that I fridged it during the rising step. Anyway it's been out of the fridge this weekend and I've been feeding it, so I might be able to try again soon

I think what helped the most was getting a proper dutch oven instead of a baking pan covered with foil

I let it rise 10 hours before folding, then maybe 12 hours after folding.. I fell asleep last night before I was ready to turn the oven on lol

I baked some bread today, 78% with just a white>wheat>rye mix. I got high and forgot about it for 3+ hours during bulk fermentation yesterday lol so it overfermented a little and started tearing as soon as I got some tension going during preshaping so I just put it straight into the bannetons without proper shaping (it'd have just ripped more and degassed). It came out pretty good, a little more dense and funny looking than usual, but it didn't get too sour and that's what counts No pics though E: the moral of the story is to set a timer when making bread under the influence poverty goat fucked around with this message at 18:47 on Sep 20, 2016 |
