Great for beginners

This is a great app for anyone new to sourdough bread making. Simple and easy to use, it includes instructions for creating and maintaining your starter as well as instructions for baking bread. One can add as many starters and loaves as one wants. The starter tracker is adjustable for the counter or the fridge. It prompts you when it’s time to feed your starter.
I had a few questions and contacted the developer, who responded promptly and was very helpful. A good experience all round.
