Starter flat and gray?
Bakers watch starters die yearly. Advice conflicts wildly.
1. The problem
Home bakers watch sourdough starters turn flat gray yearly. Feeding advice conflicts wildly online. Hooch scares beginners needlessly. Loaves brick dense sadly. The hardest part is correct diagnosis fast. A starter might need warmth only. That uncertainty makes it hard to bake tangy.
“Dying yearly gray here. I need symptom checkers with feed flows.”
2. What exists
King Arthur guides, Reddit and books rescue starters, while deaths persist yearly. Guides overwhelm variables. A thread might contradict itself. There is little help with symptom checkers plus feed flows for bakers.
3. The solution
The solution could be a bake-tangy engine. It could diagnose symptoms simply fast. It could schedule feeds wisely daily. Bake tests could prove readiness. The goal would be lively starters, airy loaves.
