Bedlam,  I think that might be too hot.  20 to 25 degrees is perfect.  Could you turn it on and off,  wait  for it to cool a bit and then put it in.  Have you got a thermometer to test it. .?    Hot water in the sink with a wire rack over it and table cloth over the lot,  seems to work.

Groupie if it doesn't work I am more than willing to give you some starter. Chookie carried it all the way over here in her luggage and it is still going.

Thanks so much for the offer; I will give it a go and hope our almost cold weather doesn't stop it but will take you up if nothing happens. I have just been reading through all the pages of this thread and my eyes are starting to go cross eyed there are so many. Thanks again

Troupie,    once you get your starter going,  pick an easy recipe and stick to it until you get it right.

The jar has been sterilized, chux bought and water boiled ready for the morning to start this process. I have been reading all the information on this site and wow!! is there some great stuff. Thank you so much forum members, I cant wait to produce a loaf like some on here.

My jar is now sitting outside and I am hoping all the magpies don't decide to take a look at the nice green chux cloth. I am so hoping this works for me as I have been going to try to make bread like my mum used to make; she used potato skins I think; probably from the golden wattle book which I think was the only recipe book in our house when I was growing up. Bit different to my book shelves.

WOW this thread is amazing - will be getting my thermie soon so was looking for sourdough recipes - will have to give this a dough! What's the best size loaf pan to cook this in though, any suggestions?
Also it's starting to get a bit cold here in Perth, is it ok to start up a starter or should I wait until it's warmer?
Thanks in advance :)
