whole wheat sourdough starter?

How do I make a whole wheat sourdough starter? I saw a recipe in the Mary Jane Farms magazine for a sourdough starter with just organic flour and distilled water and that was it. So I was wondering how to make it with whole wheat doing just the same. Has anyone tried it?

I have used the Mary Jane recipe exactly for the starter. And I have since converted it to all whole wheat.

I don't know if it would make any difference if you used whole wheat from the start. I don't see why it would be a problem.

Good luck! It's tricky, but fun. And delicious.

Erin,

Thank you so much for that thread. I can't wait to dig through it!

I have made the pancake recipe on the first page before - it's terrific. Can't wait to try it for waffles.
