Good progress

Check the time line on hobbies posting
Use a cast iron pot with lid what is generally known as Dutch oven

I made 4 two at a time the better ones where in Dutch oven.

This morning.

Dutch Over loaf left looks OK. The burnt one right, not so.

That's a long way to go to bake a loaf, isn’t it?

Well done Bod.

A little attention to stretch and folds plus kneading, you will be selling sourdough loaves at the Sunday Markets

I think the burnt Pecan nut loaf turned out the best.
I'll do at a lower temperature next time.

Made the starter last night. Its not doing much.
Hope to see movement tomorrow.

If this is day one?, it won't be doing much for a few days, this is normal.

I would start a starter with 100g flour 100g water, for the first few days, you need to throw half away every day and top back up with 100w/100f, keep doing this... after a week or possibly longer, you should see good activity in the starter, lots of bubbles.
Once you get to this stage, you can start to use. You can then start using the starter and not throwing it away.
