Creative Breads Using Sourdough – 100% sourdough instead of yeast?
Hello together, do you think it would be possible to exchange yeast in the recipes for sourdough? If yes -in what proportions? I would like to try those amazing recipes completely without yeast. Thanks!

Hi Oxana. Yes, it is possible, but as you can imagine, it is not always a straightforward conversion. The ratio to use is 100 grams of sourdough starter to replace 7 grams of yeast. However, you might have to try the same recipe a couple of times to determine the best fermentation time, since sourdough will take a lot longer than a commercial yeast dough. The addition of the starter will also have a slight impact on the hydration of the product, so you might want to adjust the amount of liquid. Good luck!

Thank you Mandie!
It was my worry – the volume of sourdough to reach similar effect of yeast – that would also effect the hydration level. But maybe I would try to combine first smaller portions of sourdough instead of yeast and longer fermentation time. It would be great if the author of the course would offer this “alternative” in his recipes 🙂

Hi, @infolinuschka-de @infomamas-sonnenschein-de
I am sending you a table of equivalences so that you can replace the types of yeast with sourdough according to weight. We hope this information is helpful.

Hi, @infomamas-sonnenschein-de
I send you the link to a page where you can calculate the amount of sourdough by the amount of flour.
I think the page is in Spanish but you have the option to change the language.-
Thank you very much!

Is there any possible way to determine the percentages of lactic and acetic acids in a sourdough starter? And the percentage of humidity?
Thanks in advance!
Hay alguna manera de determinar el porcentaje de ácido láctico y acético en la masa madre? ¿Y la humedad?
Gracias de antemano!

For optimal sourdough flavor, the ratio of lactic acid to acetic acid should be between 3:1 and 4:1. If the ratio changes to contain more acetic acid, the flavor generally becomes too sour.
Weaker acids, such as lactic acid and acetic acid, do not dissociate completely, meaning that not all of the acid molecules present will release their hydrogen ion. As lactic acid is a stronger acid compared to acetic acid, more lactic acid will be dissociated and therefore contribute more to the pH value. Is it possible to find out the total amount of acids within the dough? To find out, it is first homogenized with water to obtain a suspension.
Then it is titrated to a pH value of 8.5 with a 0.1 molar sodium hydroxide solution and then a machine called “Automated Titrator” is used, this provides reliable results.
We hope this information is helpful.

Wow, accurate and quick! Thanks for your respose.
