Starter stays peaked for 5 hours
Hi All, I was wondering if maybe someone else has seen this in their starter. My starter (100% hydration white starter) has started to stay peaked for hours and hours, I fed it this morning at 7:00 AM. It has been peaked since 3:00 PM and as of yet (8:30 PM) has shown no signs of falling. It's quite perplexing and I am wondering if any of you fine bakers have seen this in their starter. Is it normal of a good established starter or not? I might need Debra Wink for this one.....It smells normal and does not show any difference from when it would sink an hour after peak.
