How to Make Your Own Sourdough Starter

A Day-by-Day, 10-Day Course

An in-depth, easy-to-follow, step-by-step course that walks you through creating a sourdough starter from scratch - day by day, from Day 0 to a fully active starter.

🍞 You Know This Feeling

You've watched a dozen sourdough videos and started a jar of flour and water more than once.

Then Day 3 hits. There's liquid on top. It smells strange. You don't know if that's normal or if you've killed it - so you toss it and start over, or give up entirely.

Sourdough starters aren't hard, but they're unforgiving of guesswork. Without knowing exactly what to expect on which day, it's easy to:

β€’ Panic and throw out a starter that was actually fine

β€’ Not know how or when to clean your jar without disrupting the culture

β€’ Guess at feeding ratios and timing instead of following a plan

β€’ Never know for sure whether your starter is actually ready to bake with

This course removes the guesswork by guiding you through the exact same 10 days, one video at a time.

🍞 Is this for you?

This is for you if:

β€’ You've tried making a sourdough starter before and it didn't survive

β€’ You want a day-by-day plan instead of piecing together conflicting advice

β€’ You're not sure what's "normal" during fermentation and want reassurance at each stage

β€’ You want ongoing maintenance guidance, not just the first 10 days

This isn't for you if:

β€’ You already have a healthy, established starter and just want bread recipes

β€’ You're looking for a full bread-baking course (shaping, scoring, baking technique)

β€’ You want a quick one-video overview rather than a guided daily process

🍞 A note from me

I remember scrolling through Instagram one day and I kept seeing sourdough posts. What is this? I wondered.

So I went down the sourdough rabbit hole - post after post, reel after reel, so much conflicting advice. I finally found a way that worked for me πŸ˜€ this course will save you scrolling for hours 😁
