lol! Don’t screw the top on, just set it on top of the jar or screw on very loosely. Have to give the gases room to escape.

Many websites and books on this subject. Everyone I ever read said to never tighten the lid. I think you may want to read some more information on sourdough. I like the Breadtopia site for how to and recipes.

Chemistry lesson folks. Gases being generated with no where to go increases pressure…

oh! Sorry for your sourdough 😞 sourdough has a lot of strength! In France, long ago it was said that bakers slept with their sourdough under the bed, when he felt the bed rise it meant the leaven was ready. sourdough can be kept in a canvas, but sometimes it explodes like in this video https://youtu.be/OCAWOAVbRB4?si=4hAJkGkq3YUDtJmG

I use a mason jar with the lid and the screw part separated and just leave the lid on!.
