Good work man. and good choice to wait until you have time. the kids will interrupt you and make your learning more difficult than necessary. Before long, you will learn how to work around all of that.

I'm making foccacia right now for my mom's Valentine's Day supper club. About to head back home for a fold.

So 3 feedings in a row, i've had signs of strong fermentation. The rise is 3 to 4 times the original size. The sort of sour smell i was getting before i had a rise, is more "bready" with a tiny hint of acidity. I think i'll continue feeding twice a day through the weekend, then put in the fridge sunday night, then feed once/week. Then, in 2 weeks, i'll take the starter out on a wednesday, and begin double feeding again to wake the starter up in hopes of baking that weekend. Or, i'll reduce my hydration and just feed once/day, which is more maneagable than twice/day.

I'll try the float test this sunday as well, and see how i do.
