    Hi, I’m Hendrik. I turned the starter questions I get asked most into a phrasebook: what your jar is trying to tell you. The jar photos are my own starters. The one people argue about most is hooch: it isn’t mold, it actually protects the starter. Stir it back in. If your starter says something that isn’t on the list, post it below and I’m happy to translate it.

    I’ve not heard of halving the amount of starter when it has already peaked and deflated. Can you explain please?

    Well, it is wrong on so many levels explained in your former post and yet you are doing this again?

    Is this a repost from earlier today?

    This is very helpful. I always was told to pour off the hooch!

    Not all recipes call for starter at peak. The one I use is starter fed 12-24 hrs prior, so always looks like #4.
