It ended up coming out great though! It might just be that its so dry in my home. Who knows! Just wanted to remind everyone to add a little at a time in case your dough does the same.

So sorry - this question got buried in my spam folder. You probably already found the answer to this, but you make extra sour so that you can keep it for the next batch of bread. That's what is so wonderful about sourdough and why pioneer women cherished their sours. You capture the wild yeast and feed them and you can make bread without other yeast for years! And the longer you keep your sour alive, the better it tastes. So you always want to have a small amount of sour left to feed and store. Hi Sharon!

I’m a little confused – why make 3+ cups of batter/sponge if you’re only going to use two of them?
