After sucking at sourdough in 2020, my friend gave me some of her starter and I re-attempted. I put in very minimal effort for this loaf and it turned out fantastic. No warming mats, no proofing basket, no fancy whisk! You really don’t need all the fancy tools to make great bread!

It looks amazing! Can you share your recipe and process?
That’s beautiful! Congratulations on the success. I hope the taste was exceptional!
Can you post the recipe? It’s one of the rules for this sub and I’d like to see!
Congrats!! May I have your advice on how to make or maintain an active starter? Mine was weak and I was so frustrated. It turned out that the results were not that good, eg over fermented dough etc. I am thinking if I should buy a strong starter online. Thanks!
