Revisiting Sour dough (part 3)

Day 7

Since I was still awake because I was checking the tomatoes and tomato sauce on the dehydrator at 4:30am, I thought I'd see if the sourdough was up to any business. And finally it started doing something.

I'm pretty excited to say that it's doubled in volume. I really feel that the last  few days I wasn't seeing much activity, may have been do to the low humidity and cooler temperature in the apartment.

Apparently, the dehydrator was putting enough moisture and heat in the kitchen that may have been kick starting the sourdough starter. I suspect I'll have to test this theory when I get back from my trip to Dana's wedding this coming weekend.

In the meantime, look... how beautiful...bubbles! :)
