Quick questions

Will a dehydrated starter survive the post to Hobart?

Absolutely — drying puts the culture into a dormant, shelf-stable state, so it's built for the journey. Rehydrate it when it arrives and feed it until it's bubbly and doubling; that's when you know it's ready.

How soon can I bake with it?

Most bakers get a strong, active starter within days of rehydration. Your instructions walk you through every feed, so you'll know exactly when your first loaf is on the cards.

Why not just make my own starter or ask a friend for some?

You can, but scratch starters stall more often than not, and a mate's jar comes with mystery flavour and no instructions. A proven culture with a guarantee and step-by-step guidance skips all of that.
