Sonny expressed some interest in dehydrating the starter to make it easier to distribute, I'm gonna give it a go. Baked last Sunday, still have bread. Gonna feed tonight, retain my 1 cup in the morning and spread out the remainder on parchment paper and into the dehydrator at 100 degrees and see what happens. From what I have read, you can take the dried flakes and turn them into a powder with a coffee mill.
Now the bringing back to life thing is yet to be seen. I will dry out 2 cups of starter, 1 cup per rack so it is easy to keep track of.
I am thinking that the powder could be added to a normal feed cycle, and develop without refrigeration for 24 to 48 hours. Any ideas or direction welcome.
