Sourdough starter day 5

All that talk of not messing up my sourdough starter and I find out I'm actually off track. I fed it yesterday as I'd fed it the day before but I've checked my instructions again today and I was actually meant to do it differently. Whoops! So I'm a day behind, but I'm hoping it won't have affected it too much.


So, what was I meant to do yesterday and have actually done today? Well, I was meant to throw away most of the starter... it felt a bit weird throwing it out but I followed the instructions through. To this, I added 70g strong white bread flour, 30g rye flour and 100g water. I stirred, covered and put it back in its spot.


I'll keep a better eye on what I'm meant to be doing in future.
