"This instruction booklet is thorough, well researched and tested/used by its author, Teresa L. Greenway. It represents the knowledge she has a acquired about sourdough starter over the years.
Yes, I could have gone to Teresa's site and downloaded a copy of this booklet for free but the Kindle version here is $2.99 and I think that is a real bargain considering it enables readers to skip a huge part of the figuring out process and go directly to making a decent starter the first time around, depending on how closely you paid attention to the instructions and suggestions.
As for me, I'm happy to have paid for my copy (I say this after reading a couple reviews where people felt they were somehow cheated because they found out after having purchased the booklet - $3.99 for print, $2.99 for Kindle - that there is a free download version on the author's site) in appreciation for Teresa's hard work, sharing her wealth of knowledge about sourdough through many great resources, and to help enable her to be a stay at home mom to her autistic son.
For anyone who hasn't read the short biography of the author, I suggest that you do. It's included here on the product page, above the reviews."

- Very well explained, step by step instructions. I was going to start the process, but then Teresa L. Greenway offered to do a live class for those interested in making their own starter. I will be following her, but I know I have the book to try it again my own.
I like how she explains the science behind what it's happening to the starter at every step of the way. - This instruction booklet is thorough, well researched and tested/used by its author, Teresa L. Greenway. It represents the knowledge she has a acquired about sourdough starter over the years.

For anyone who hasn't read the short biography of the author, I suggest that you do. It's included here on the product page, above the reviews. - Very clear instructions -- After having a problem with another starter recipe that just wouldn't work, I did as Greenway said, measuring exactly, and I also used a little bit of apple cider since I had some, and that was back in August (2017)... here in nearly December, my starter is still going strong. I haven't made the bread, but I love the recipe for sourdough brownies on her website -- they are AMAZING. I also do pancakes, waffles and so forth. Maybe try one of the breads soon, though I tend to rely on Bread Illustrated and Daniel Leader's Local Bread more for bread-baking...
- Love this book. Why? Pictures and literally, step by step explanations. Teresa did a great job of putting a book together that I really love. There are things you can do with sourdough starter that I had not idea. Did you know you can dry it, yep. Get the book and find out how. Very well done book with very easy directions. Did I mention that she has a bit of a sense of humor as well? She does. Well worth the price of the book if you are interested in sourdough bread. Well done.
- I have enjoyed Theresa Greenway on YouTube which is the reason I bought this booklet. I would advise to spend a little more and get a more comprehensive cookbook specifically for sourdough baking. This tiny booklet only covers making sourdough starter which is completely free on the internet or on YouTube.
- This book will be useful to those, like me, that want to plunge into sourdough baking by creating their own starter. I appreciate the writing style straight to the point and friendly. The author also covers a number of variants.
My new starter named, "Larry," is now four days old. I will be able to take better care of him after reading this little gem. Five Stars. - I received the starter today. Transferred to a jar and fed it. It's about 6 hours later and it's almost doubled in size. Smells good and I'm sure in another day or so it will smell even better. Bottom line, it's doing exactly what it's supposed to do. I'll update after making a loaf of sour dough ciabatta.
- The book is well written and easy to understand. The instructions are simple and rhorough. I am keeping it with my cookbooks for when I have more time to get started making my own sourdough bread. Looks like fun.
