Fred Farter
Since 2020
Scared of bread and had extra time on my hands, so I learned.
Characteristics
Even with a solid 3-4 folds it tends to not hold gluten structure all that well but has a delicious crumb and crust, so the optics are trivial. The smell is leathery as a starter, one that excites me every time I smell it.

I Typically feed with 80% hydration on Fred with 25% rye and 75% AP. After several failed attempts at a starter Fred was born a few days before Christmas 2020. I’m always impressed with his creations, and the way he seems to get the BG’s after he’s fed. Fred is a good boy and glad he’s in our family. My hope is to one day pass him down to my kids and create an heirloom.
