Seed Culture, Phase 3 (Day 4 or Later)

1. 1

   Add the new ingredients to the now bubbling Phase 2 seed culture and stir with a spoon or whisk as before, or knead by hand.

2. 2

   (The seed culture will be thicker because the the ratio of liquid to flour has decreased with each addition.)

3. 3

   Place it in a larger bowl or measuring cup, cover with plastic wrap, and leave at room temperature for 24 to 48 hours, aerating with a wet spoon or whisk (or knead with wet hands) at least twice each day.

4. 4

   Within 48 hours the culture should be very bubbly and expanded.

5. 5

   If not, wait another day or two, continuing to aerate at least twice a day, until it becomes active and doubles in size.

6. 6

   (If the seed culture was active and bubbly prior to entering this phase, it could become active and bubbly in this stage in less than 24 hours.

7. 7

   If so, proceed to the next phase as soon as that happens.)
