Hey #sourdough my starter is going pretty good after a week (false start got me good lmao) would 10 days be too early to try a first loaf? Would be nice to have some bread for my boys for an event this weekend 👉👈 - ThreadSky

Shit if I start now finally will I be good to go in time for a bread swap in Memphis

As long as its starting to be bubbly its probably not too early, just make sure the first day is all your folds, then overnight ferment, then bake the next morning

I work night shifts so I'm planning
Feed it when I get home
Sleep
Mix and do stretch and folds in the evening after I wake up
Fridge overnight while I mess up my sleep schedule for afternoon armory on Sat
Bake when I get home

Honestly that sounds like it’d be fine! After the overnight ferment you can also do a few rolling ups of the dough to also increase tension, and if you have it baking it on a square of parchment paper in a dutch oven helps a lot, preheating the oven with the dutch oven in

Ye my room mate happens to have a small Dutch oven that I'll be testing either before I buy a more normal sized one
And watched a ton of folding/rolling videos on tiktok and will probably watch them again before I get started😂

Honestly its exactly what i did too until i started making a few sourdoughs on vibe haha, also unless you have one recipe its fun to record them then take notes for the next loaf, and a mature starter can be just fed once a week and kept in the fridge, once you’re comfortable

Part of rushing to try baking is because my next weekend off is Memphis and it'll have to go in the fridge haha
