I'm not sure if keeping it in the fridge leads to a good starter, at least initially. I'd let it sit on the counter for the first week or so, to give it a chance to develop.
- karatestomp 7y agoThis’d be yet another topic on which everyone has very different “definitely the right way” advice, too, which isn’t helping. Though I have started them on the counter, it’s just after that they have to go in the fridge if you don’t want to waste flour on them every single day, apparently, and even then they’re still very hungry. Throwing out flour hurts when I know I could have made something good with it. I’ve tried recipes to use up “waste” starter without having to make bread with it, but it was still more effort than doing the same thing with other ingredients and the flavor was... poor.
