Since 2017

Having tasted sourdough, I wanted to be able to create that flavour myself. I love the process - a little bit of science and a little bit of creativity can produce some amazing results.. Creating food from scratch is important to me.

Characteristics

It bubbles and froths, and has caught me off guard a few times by growing so big after feeding that I've had to transfer some to another pot! The smell ranges from ripe fruit to a wheeze-inducing alcohol punch. I've made the mistake a few times of sniffing it immediately after opening, only to be hit with an alcohol slap around the nostrils.
