I've tried to follow many guides for creating a sourdough starter and failed constantly. I tried different videos, recipes, and advice, but none worked.

Through Reddit, I found The Sourdough Journey. Tom Cucuzza's ultimate guide for creating a sourdough starter is the only thing that helped me come this far. As a total beginner, the information available in his videos and website is so easy to understand. I can not recommend it enough.

Anyone who is struggling with or is about to cultivate their own starter should follow all the advice provided by The Sourdough Journey, ESPECIALLY the trouble shooting tips. Way too many people struggle here, and I think it would save them so much time and energy if they followed that guide to begin with.
