Now you got me, pineapple? I've orange apples and bananas here are they any good. It's not active yet. I don't think sourdough likes me, I've read it takes a few goes for most people.

The link I posted toe breadtopia uses pineapple juice. It has t be pineapple juice to get the lactobacillus going in the starter

I will post their instructions and ingredients:


Make Your Own Sourdough Starter

Create your own sourdough starter from the wild yeast floating all around you. The starting point for the ultimate in artisan bread DIY.



Ingredients

• Whole wheat flour
• Unsweetened pineapple juice
• Purified water

Instructions

• Step 1. Mix 3 ½ tbs. whole wheat flour with ¼ cup unsweetened pineapple juice. Cover and set aside for 48 hours at room temperature. Stir vigorously 2-3x/day. (“Unsweetened” in this case simply means no extra sugar added).
• Step 2. Add to the above 2 tbs. whole wheat flour and 2 tbs. pineapple juice. Cover and set aside for a day or two. Stir vigorously 2-3x/day. You should see some activity of fermentation within 48 hours. If you don’t, you may want to toss this and start over (or go buy some!)
• Step 3. Add to the above 5 ¼ tbs. whole wheat flour and 3 tbs. purified water. Cover and set aside for 24 hours.
• Step 4. Add ½ cup whole wheat flour and 1/4 to 1/3 cup purified water. You should have a very healthy sourdough starter by now.

I haven't seen her either, I hope everything is ok with her husband. She hasn't been online since Thursday morning.

A similar thing happened with Chickadoodles on the old folks home. Husband was doing better and then nothing from her for nearly two weeks now.

It is worrisome!

Within a few hours of posting that my starter wasn't alive it burst into energy. I'm so happy. So started the dough process and leaving pictures of stages. Starter then dough
