What Makes Best Starter Containers?
I am currently in the middle of my first two sourdough starters ever. I have to say they both seem to be developing nicely but as I continue to divide and feed I really feel I could have used better containers. One is a medium size mixing bowl and the other is a large wide 4 cup measuring cup. The measuring cup seems to be about the right size and shape although the book I am reading suggests a "beaker". Of course I haven't seen a beaker since 7th grade science class so was wondering what other people recommend. I have also hear someone mention mason jars which seem to be just about perfect as well although maybe not big enough. I would love to hear what others recommend.
