Observation: There was some rise in both
containers, the smell was somewhat fresher
in both than before. The glass container
had a smell component of fried bratwurst
which I found interesting. The underlying
smell which I called "foul" is
still there but not as prevalent. I expect
this smell/taste to stay for a while which
it did with a previous starter created in
the same way. Nevertheless, it made good
bread and I am not concerned at all.
They are now starting to get
sour and have
light sour taste and smell components.
I
measuered the pH, the plastic
container culture
was on pH 4.09 and the glass
container culture
had pH 3.83. The starters are
more creamy.
The starter in the glass appears
more advanced
which is confirmed by the lower
pH.
I added 50 g flour and water
and thoroughly
stirred all the material. |
