    I’ve been making a loaf every week +/- since March of 2020 with the wild start I cultivated. I don’t understand the idea of discarding part of the colony. I have maintained the same colony in a little 12oz jar this entire time.

    1. Pull out ~half of the colony and use it to make bread.
    2. Add 4 Tbsp flour and 2 Tbsp water into the jar, mix.
    3. Let it sit for a few hours (Or don’t)
    4. Put the jar in the fridge until you are ready to make a new loaf.
    5. If you feel like it, or you skipped step 3, pull the jar out of the fridge and let it sit out for a few hours.
    6. Go to step 1.

    That’s it. So simple, no waste.
