Review: used it right away! - Got my package in a timely matter. It was packaged well and the starter was sealed nicely. The instructions were much appreciated. I fed it that night and the next morning the starter (at least) doubled in size. I was originally planning to wait to bake but since it rose so good I decided to right away! Pictured is my loaves from the next day. This starter helped make beautiful bread! It smells good and tastes even better. It’s extra bubbly and alive! Fruit flies infiltrated my last starter so I threw it out. I thought that one was alive and well but this one is definitely way more active. Thank you, I highly recommend.
Review: A must buy. - Amazing yeast. Seriously. I paired it with Italian ported Semolina and my first loaf was pretty great. In fact this was supposed to be discard but there was so much, i made it into bread. The yeast wan’t fully awake from shipping, but I decided to try anyway. Let it proof for 6 hours, shaped and refrigerated 12 hours. Baked out of fridge and was impressed by the loaf. Next one with fully active yeast will be even better.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fun Way to Get Started Making Sourdough at Home
*by S***T on August 16, 2026*

Starting sourdough completely from scratch takes patience, so having an established starter gives you a nice head start. There's still some learning involved with feeding schedules, temperature and figuring out when the starter is ready, but that's part of making sourdough. I also like that you aren't limited to bread. Once you have an active starter going, you can experiment with pizza dough, waffles and other recipes instead of throwing away excess starter. For beginners, I think much more detailed instructions would make the product better. A simple day-by-day guide explaining what the starter should look and smell like would remove a lot of guesswork. Once you get into the routine, though, it's a fun baking project.
