"first">Rather than buy yeast I decided to be hardcore and enslave wild yeast
61 in a jar. It is actually
<a href=
"http://www.io.com/~sjohn/sour.htm">pretty damn easy
</a>. I used the method mentioned
62 in the former link, but added a bit of
<em>science
</em> (or
—I've kept a beer
63 yeast starter before). I used my giant bottle of Iodophor to sanitize
64 the jar in which the yeast were to live (just to kill any natives; I
65 rinsed the jar afterward with tap water and didn't sanitize any
66 utensils), made sure the water used for feeding was at about
90°F, and
67 fed the starter a tablespoon of dry malt extract (maltose being to
68 yeast what fast food is to a fat American) and a quarter teaspoon of
69 lemon juice (just to slightly acidify the initial mix and make the
70 yeasties new home a bit more hospitable to only them at first) for the
71 first two days. This resulted in a bubbly and happy starter on the
72 third day, made interesting bread on the fourth, and was successfully
73 cloned for someone else on the fifth!
</p>
75 <p>Just remember to measure the volume of the original mixture and write
76 that down so you can easily substitute it into recipes (mine worked
77 out to ⅔ cup of starter from ½ cup of flour and water, but flour
78 varies in absorbency rabble blah moo etc.).
