What This Skill Does

Helps bakers maintain sourdough starters through feeding schedule management, hydration calculations, and health troubleshooting. Covers daily maintenance, pre-bake preparation timelines, long-term storage, and diagnosing problems like hooch formation or mold.

Combines ratio math, temperature-adjusted timelines, and troubleshooting in one place instead of consulting multiple recipes or forums separately.

When to use it

  • Planning a feeding schedule before a weekend bake
  • Converting a 100% hydration starter to 75% for a specific recipe
  • Diagnosing why a starter stopped rising or smells off
  • Calculating exact starter amounts needed for a bread recipe
  • Storing a starter safely before a two-week vacation

Example Workflow

Here's how your AI assistant might use this skill in practice.

INPUT

User asks: I want to bake bread Saturday morning. My recipe needs 200g of active starter.

AGENT
  1. 1Calculates a backward timeline from Saturday morning
  2. 2Determines a two-stage feeding schedule for Thursday evening and Friday evening
  3. 3Computes exact gram amounts for starter, flour, and water at each feeding
  4. 4Notes how room temperature affects rise times and adjusts the plan accordingly
  5. 5Provides a contingency if the starter underperforms by Friday night
OUTPUT

A day-by-day feeding plan with precise weights and timing so 200g of active starter is ready at peak rise Saturday morning.
