‼️ Sourdough experts… I’m desperate! My starter, Lolita, isn’t peaking 😩🍞

She’s 12 days old and here’s her journey so far:

Bread flour & filtered water

Started with 1:1:1 feeding every 24hrs

By day 7 Switched to 1:2:2 two feeding per day she didn’t like it nothing really happened.

Now➡️day 12 back to 1:1:1, feeding every 24hrs seeing some bubbles but not doubling in size

Room temp 71-72F

I’ve been following the rules… but she just won’t rise! Any tips or magic tricks for getting her to peak? 🙏💛

FEEDING MY SOURDOUGH STARTER
Sourdough doesn’t have to be complicated! I feed my starter on a 1:1:1 ratio, which means that there are equal parts of starter, flour, and water. So if I had 50g of starter, I would add in 50g of flour and 50g of water. #easyrecipes #easyrecipe #sourdoughstarter #sourdough #baking
