You can condense all that into a shorter version.
Mix dough at night. Put in fridge overnight. Get up wicked early and punch the dough and take it out of fridge and put it on the counter. Go back to bed. Bake it when you get up later.
Or just mix it and leave it on the counter. You can bake within 2-3 hours.
More rises and more time makes better bread.
This is pretty cool Mike. I'm not really a fan of sourdough but that looks good. I usually make bread with a 'starter' or 'biga' I make the day before.
What bourbon goes with bread making?
I’m having Rouge Dead Guy Whiskey and some OG.

Right behind you. I like to let it sit for a few hours before putting it in the fridge; seems to give a more consistent texture.

Something to think about if your starter isn’t working: your water. If your tap water is chlorinated it could be killing or inhibiting the yeastie beasties and bacteria you’re trying to encourage. I suggested this to my friend who’s starter was flat. She tried distilled water and it seemed to do the trick. You can also just let the tap water sit in a jar and gas off for a day. I know brewers who do this. I use the already boiled water in my tea kettle.
Happy baking!
