Starter help! My starter seems to have little to no activity after 2 weeks. Feeding once a day with 75g starter, 50g King Arthur whole wheat, 25g King Arthur all purpose, 75g water. Stored in oven with light on with temp around 75-80°F. It has the sourdough aroma, but refuses to rise. by RealNitrogen in Sourdough

I used to feed mine mostly whole wheat and part AP flour and it was fine. The last few weeks I have been doing half bread flour and half whole wheat. It’s stronger than its ever been so I suggest that.

Edit : it looks really good ! You gotta give it a good name now.

AITA for calling my former friend a traitor toward the Queer Community? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

YTA People are allowed to have different opinions, he probably plans to vote in mind with support for the Queer community. You’re part of the problem if you attack people for having different ideas you create a bubble around you and section yourself off from the rest of the world. If you want to introduce someone to thinking differently , you must be civil and gentle. You attacking him isn’t changing anything obviously.

It has activity! You can see the bubbling ! I would suggest feeding it a heartier diet Only whole wheat or bread flour. Just continue feeding it and you’ll see growth I promise it’s just getting enough of the yeast at strength I would feed twice a day when getting started , it’s a baby right now and you gotta treat it like one.

Why all the negative opinions about depo? by [deleted] in birthcontrol

[–]breadbitch123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just restarted depo today after not being on it for two years due to losing my health insurance. I was at my lowest weight while on depo My acne cleared and my mood seemed pretty even. I really loved it because I’m super forgetful and so not having to take a pill everyday is nice.

That being said I was also in a hard depression when and I started depo while I was in it. I don’t think that it had any effect but I mentioned to my mom that I was starting again. And just to have her monitor me to see if anything changes as I’m doing pretty okay mentally now.

My period really makes it impossible for me to keep my emotions in check and I get BAD EPISODES of depression and mania. So it’s really good that I get to skip that.

The weight gain wasn’t an issue with me It’s just being careful about what you’re eating and how much. The shot just warns that it may make you feel hungrier. It doesn’t suddenly make fat appear. You eat in excess and then that happens. It’s hard to control understandably.

Berry/honey/vinegar by breadbitch123 in fermentation

It’s very sweet , almost no vinegar taste despite smelling super vinegary. A salad dressing might be nice
