Hi Janet
For some reason your original post doesn't show, even after I repaired
the rfc folder several times.
IME, liquid sourdough starter is usually the 100% hydration variety
preferred by most N.American SD enthusiasts.
I prefer the French type that I keep at ~65%. There's just a different
yeast:bacterial balance that makes the loaf less sour.
