Starter Recycling
Hello everyone, I am currently on day 3 of getting my new starter up and running (I had one going about 2 months ago, but threw it out b/c of a really cheesy smell, the post is somewhere on here).
Tommorow I'm going to seperate the 1/4 cup of starter and make it a White starter but instead of throwing the rest out I want to make that into a Whole Wheat starter. Should I just build it up by doubling it's size with every feeding? Thanks.
Yes, you can do that. Just continue feeding the whole wheat one with whole wheat flour instead of white flour, following the same feeding schedule.
Thank you! I can't wait to get started with my starters!(no pun intended) haha.
