Failproof!

I am so pleased with the starter! Even though I struggle a little bit in the beginning I got the support and info I needed from Ben quickly. I had tried and failed about a month prior and even though it took me a few extra days I successfully baked my first low last night and it came out amazing!

Very active starter!

This was a replacement starter that you sent me after I believe I got the first one too hot with an overactive oven light! This one has been bubbly from the second day and is very active. Thanks for your quick attention to my problem. Looking forward to using this VERY happy starter.

WOW!!!

I had been trying to make my own starter but it just wasn’t strong enough. I pitched this and all I can say is this is amazing. My breads have been the best I’ve had in a long time. If you want a GREAT starter, I would definitely buy this one!!!
