When can starter go in the fridge?
Marge is 2 weeks old now. Predictably doubling, or more for a week. I'm transitioning from 12 hr feedings to 24 and changing the ratio so she moves slower. Also want to reduce discard. She's doing great!
Problem is I have too much bread! I can only bake once a week or two. Just can't eat that much (and I have 4 small loaves in the freezer) I'd like to move Marge to the fridge but I'm unsure when. So much info out there! And I've seen a few articles saying a new starter shouldn't go into the fridge until 6 or 8 weeks! Because it's not mature enough. Is this true?
