Just realized my sourdough starter works way better with a $5 digital scale than my old cup measures.
I compared volume and weight for feeding it for a month, and the scale gave me a bubbly, active starter every single time, so has anyone else found that one simple tool made a huge difference?
My friend was always complaining her bread was dense. She swore she followed the recipe. Turns out her "cup" of flour was packed way too tight. She got a little scale on a whim, started weighing everything. Her next loaf was like a bakery made it, total game changer.
