There’s chlorine in drinking water. There’s also chlorine in swimming pools. Go drink a bunch of pool water and see how you feel. Then bake with some drinking water. Then bake bread with pool water, and then try some bleach and see how it goes.
Glad you got some laughs. You’re still incorrect. I remember exactly what it smells like. And I still have my original starter, both fed the same flour, both completely different. Again, I keep my starter sealed in the fridge, any trace amounts of small bacteria are overcome by the massive colony of bacteria already there.
Can you please explain how the puratos lab (https://sourdoughlibrary.puratos.com/en/) maintains their collection of starters if they all become the same thing when you feed them the same flour?
Source: I studied sensory evaluation methods and conducted studies with several hundred participants.
What does that have to do with bread? lol.
Starters contain the yeast that’s in the flour and the air where they are made. So whatever yeasts are in your bought starter – they will quickly be replaced by the ones you add.
Then you say: And maybe the defining variable is your local microbiota, not the flour, IDK
Which is it? Does the flour matter or not? lol that was the point I was disagreeing with then you flip flop or something.
Aye caramba man just bake some bread.
Any water that will sustain a human can be used for making a starter. Good luck my friend!
That’s really not correct. Yes the flour you use to feed the starter will impact the flavor but not change it. The starter is a colony of bacteria of a certain type, from a certain region. The flour is their food, not another bacterial colony that will replace the one that gives a unique flavor.
Maybe if you’re leaving your starter out in the open for days on end, or uncovered in a dark cabinet the local bacteria will take over. But if you leave your starter sealed in the fridge and only take it out to use and feed, then it will keep the flavor of what you bought.
Source: the starter I bought on Etsy still smells and tastes the same as it did when I bought it a year ago even though I’ve been feeding it my flour. Also, science.
I made my own starter with the tartine method and used that for a few years. Then I ordered some “200 year old” starter on Etsy. I’m not 100% sold on it’s age, but it’s way funkier and more flavorful than my starter ever was. I might suggest buying some like that if you’re just trying to dip your toes in. Good luck!

I have both in ear XM4 and over ear XM5s and I don’t like either. The xm4 is just too big and too heavy. It feels like it’s barely hanging onto my ear. I’ve tried using the for running or bike riding and they fall out. If you try to force them to stay in your ear it can wedge itself in too tight and get painful.
The XM5s are too tight and they hurt right below my ear if I wear them too long. The anc is good but I had some Bose QC35s before and they were waaay more comfortable and worked just as good.
I wish I had got the AirPods Pro and whatever new quiet comfort headphones Bose had now. Still thinking of switching.

Did you even read the article? There is good documentation. Man you keyboard ninjas need to spend less time in the dojo and more time in the library.
Bobi’s grand old age was validated by the Portuguese government’s pet database, which is managed by the National Union of Veterinarians.
Ah, the wonderful prevailing argument sweeping the internet the last few years: “that looks like something else, so it must be that. Let’s disregard sources and science. Everything must be what it looks like.”
Here’s a source explaining what happened since I guess no one taught you keyboard ninjas how to do actual research.
Canon Richard Sewell, the dean of St George’s College in Jerusalem, told the BBC that about 1,000 displaced people were sheltering in the courtyard when it was hit, and about 600 patients and staff were inside the building.
There was, but then it got blown up by a rocket. I suggest the opposite: we all take more mushrooms.
how do you fit 800 people in this parking lot?
have you heard of multi level buildings?
It’s a YouTube tv show about a teacher that turns into a ware wolf.
“who the fuck is mr beast what the fuck happened”. Lol. Reminds me of the Jay and silent bob line “what the fuck is the internet?”
