I make my own sourdough bread to save money on groceries. Here are 5 things I wish I'd known before starting.

To keep a sourdough starter active, it has to be fed regularly using flour and water. However, I didn't realize this until I inherited my first one. How often it's fed depends on where it's stored. For example, if I leave the starter on the counter, I feed it once every 12 to 24 hours. When I keep it in the refrigerator, however, I can feed it less, typically about once a week.

The One Beer You Should Avoid Adding To Beef Chili, According To A Grilling Pro - Tasting Table

While they're refreshing on a hot day, they certainly don't have a robust profile, nor the depth that's necessary to bring any nuanced tasting notes to chili, even after reducing with a simmer.

The Tap Red Flag To Look Out For When Visiting A Brewery - Tasting Table

No trip to the brewery is complete without sampling the wares. Even if it's a place you visit regularly, you'll likely want to sample most of what it has to offer at least once.

The more tap lines they have, the more likely it is that maintenance or cleaning gets neglected.
