Mamaji
Depuis 2012
I'd been baking bread for at least 8 years, and it was time to step up to a more noble way of life. And Mamaji is about the third starter I made. She is more pure than others I'd done, and has not had anything added to the flour and water.
Caractéristiques
Mamaji is enthusiastic, reliable and very sweet. Sometimes, results are less than expected, but that's never her fault, as she is a consistent player.

I take her out of the fridge and feed her at 100%, or 1:1:1.
This could be the evening before I make my build, or the morning.
After a second feed,she's normally ready to go in about 4 hours.

I used to start mixing my build as soon as Mamaji passed the float test, but found from reading that she would be happier with a second feed, so I now give her a second feed.. She's normally ready to go in about 4 hours.
