I am loving the consistency of this loaf. I think being in a confined container gives the best rise in my loaf. What brand spring water is everyone using … particularly those that get good rise in the starter.

Aileen nice looking sandwich bread. Great job! As mentioned, most spring waters will work as they are 7 pH. Kirkland is over 8 and so inhibits the growth of the starter. Compliments Natural Spring Water is inexpensive and works well.

@sinlesssourdough@gmail.com when I googled it it said the spring water was 7.5. Haven’t been using that regardless

I just search and ‘President’s Choice Natural Spring Water is a relatively alkaline pH of 7.93. I should try an another could it explain why my starter don’t rise
-
Nancy that’s a bit high in pH. Should be about 7.
-
@sinlesssourdough@gmail.com ok I will change for my compliments water thanks

Not sure that’s a Dutch oven. Just think it’s a bread pan.
-
Wow, that looks amazing! Do you bake it the whole time without a lid?
-
@crothman32 Yes turn oven down to 375 or 350 and bake 35-40 mins. It rise up too high to use lid
