Oh, I ain't going to give it up Ben. I just want some home made sourdough bread and I'm gonna cheat if I have to while I'm working on the other.

I ran across one site that suggest wooden utensils and bowls and they are never washed so I'm even looking into that aspect. In the meantime,
I have a great wooden mixing bowl that Lisa found and I begged her for. She told me I could have it for my bread so will be used for mixing the dough and also as the rising bowl and will be looking for more. I have some wooden utensils but will be looking for some to relegate to just bread as well.

Good idea about the water temperature. I'm also going to use filtered water from the refrigerator filter system for the next batch of starter, and the dough.
