Day 6: I removed more than half of the mixture from each jar, then I added some to a new jar and the rest to yet another jar. I then added 1/2 cup of the flour mixture and 1/4 cup of water to each jar except the last one. That one, I put in the fridge and I'll use it at a later time.
I now have 4 jars on the counter and one in the fridge. The 3 jars I had doubled in size overnight. I can't believe how well this is going.
I read a few articles about this last night. You can even dry and or freeze the sourdough starter. Now I would like to find out if I have to give it another feeding tomorrow because it sure looks done to me.
The way to find out whether it's done or not is by putting a little but of the sourdough starter in water. If it floats, it's ready. I'm going to try that tomorrow.
