My sourdough starter finally doubled in 4 hours after 11 days of nothing
I started a starter on a whim using just bread flour and tap water, and for the first 11 days it did absolutely nothing except smell like gym socks. Then on day 12 I moved it to the top of my fridge where it stays warmer and it doubled in 4 hours flat, which never happened before. Does the warm spot actually matter that much or did my starter just finally wake up on its own?
