Mix the flour and warm filtered water in your mason jar until fully incorporated (it needs to be mixed very well!).
Cover loosely with the mason jar lid. Do NOT tighten the lid. Store on the counter left unbothered for 24 hours. If your kitchen is cold, try storing it in the oven with the light on. Don't accidently turn your oven on though hehe!
Discard about half of what is in the jar (discard as in throw it away - do not keep discard until your starter is established). Taking some out (discarding) allows for the healthy bacteria to grow & helps prevent overflowing. Feed it again 50g flour & water. Cover loosely with the lid and leave it alone for another 24 hours.
Repeat this process every 24 hours for 4-5 more days and on day 6 or 7 (can vary depending on your kitchen environment), it should very very bubbly and consistently doubling in size every time you feed it.
Use your starter in your bread when it is at its peak after feeding (a little more than doubled in size. This takes about 5 hours after feeding). I will include pictures below of what this looks like.
