Has anything tried kickstarting their starter using yogurt? Perhaps a little yeast and yogurt to speed things up??

- flavor8 7y agoI kickstarted some with some kombucha yeast that I had left over from a batch. I think it got the starter going faster, and it's been making good bread. I'm 15-20 generations in now.

- yumraj 7y agoThat is where the sourness in sourdough comes from. sourdough starter has a balance of yeast and bacteria. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sourdough https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sourdough
