  • Create your own sourdough starter from scratch using just two simple ingredients – flour and water
  • Maintain your starter for a lifetime using Grant’s favorite “no-waste” method
  • Feed your sourdough starter based on the bread or pizza recipe that you’re using

I’ll also answer some frequently asked questions about sourdough starters, and show you how to make a mature starter from scratch in as few as 6 days.

Why I wrote this Sourdough Starter Guide

My goal with Grant Bakes is to help you make better bread, sourdough, and pizza at home. I believe that having your very own sourdough starter (that you actually made yourself) is essential for understanding the bread baking process and for achieving great tasting bread at home. I want to show everyone how to make sourdough starter!

That’s why I created the Sourdough Starter Guide, and that’s why I want to share it with everyone who signs up for my newsletter.
