It's improved my younger starter by adding the french one

It's improved my younger starter by adding the french one. It's aerated and my son likes the bread now as less dense

Bubbly starter

I'm super excited to bake my first sourdough from this starter! The daily feeds show a bubbly starter and it has doubled in volume. I found the delivery quick and efficient.
